In other news,  Roadburn Festival is elated to announce that Vancouver riff-machine Black Mountain will headline this years Afterburner event on Sunday, April 17th at the 013 venue, Tilburg, Holland.

Black Mountain?s take on late 60?s / early 70?s rock echoes both Black Sabbath and early Pink Floyd. They begin with smoking Marshalls and spooky organ sounds, build into lengthy freakout jams spiced with stomping boogie and ambient melodies and crown it all with twin male/female vocals from Stephen McBean and Amber Webber. ?It?s heaviness with fragility?, according to frontman Stephen Mcbean in Rolling Stone. ?Anyone can slam out a Black Sabbath riff, but nobody else can do it with Amber?s beautiful voice on top of it.?

Black Mountain go beyond mere demin-clad revisionism with the release of Wilderness Heart, the band?s latest album, as they stunningly juxtapose tender, pastoral balladry with some of their heaviest songs yet, while showcasing a very confident sense of originality.

Also confirmed for the Afterburner are American doom legends Blood Farmers, Dead Meadow, SpindriftBlack Pyramid, Coffins, Sourvein, Dragontears, Samsara Blues Experience and Gomer Pyle. Get your Afterburner tickets HERE.
