We are very sorry to announce that Gomer Pyle has cancelled their Afterburner appearance. Drummer Sander Evers just left the band, and it will take a while for Gomer Pyle to break in a new drummer, thus the band decided that it´s wise to skip this year’s Roadburn. A decision we respect and support. We hope to have them back next year.


Luckily, we found a great replacement in Holland’s very own Sungrazer. Fresh off their tour with labelmates Colour Haze, the band’s fuzz runs deep and won over audiences from Germany to Denmark and from Austria to Holland in the last couple of weeks.

Sungrazer‘s warm, heady, definitively European psychedelia bears a considerable resemblance to Colour Haze, but the band leans towards traditional stonerrock too, given their use of heavy riffs, occasional catchy choruses and the overwhelming natural flow of their self-titled debut album, out on Stefan Koglek’s Elektrohasch label.

Sungrazer will perform a 75 minute set a the Green Room on Sunday April 17th, and showcase a heavy jam ethic, as they’re definitely one of the most promising bands to appear on the stonerrock scene in a while.
