Dunk!festival, dat in 2017 doorgaat op 25, 26 en 27 mei, hadden reeds enkele namen bekend gemaakt. Meniscus, Mooncake, Flash the Readies, Malämmar. De organisatie is ondertussen niet bij de pakken blijven zitten, en lanceren nu nog enkele nieuwe namen. Dit zijn:
Pray for Sound, We Lost the Sea, The Chasing Monster, All We Expected. We citeren even het bericht op de website:
Check. One. Two. Is this thing on? Alright! We're excited to announce these 4 bands joining the line-up for our next edition. We will definitely be in the audience to watch them doing their thing because chances are that these shows will be epic.
Pray For Sound from Boston, MA is not unknown to us (=understatement) since our label released Dreamer on CD in the EU and their latest album Everything Is Beautiful on vinyl and CD. So it's about time to have them on our stage as well. This will be their first EU tour. Prepare yourself and play their new album on repeat for the rest of the day (over here). Our favorite track: I Have Seen Hell and It's White.
We Lost The Sea will travel all the way from Australia to bring their latest tunes to our stage. That's right, they will be playing Departure Songs in full! If you heard the album we don't have to tell you how breathtaking this will be! This band has sorted everything out. Just watch the artwork of this album! Unfortunately the vinyl version is sold out worldwide...
All We Expected is Belgian upcoming talent. We went to visit them in their rehearsal room somewhere in Flanders fields where we learned that their custom made Ygon cabs go f*** loud. But we also heard (loud and clear) some exciting post-rock / post-metal songs from their upcoming album. If everything goes according to plan they will bring their debut album to the festival!
The Chasing Monster from Italy says to be influenced by If These Trees Could Talk, Explosions In The Sky, Mono,... So this can't go wrong. This is going to be excellent (rather heavy) post-rock with silent breaks, distorted vocal samples, exploding shreds, occasional screams and some headbanging grooves. They are working on their debut album and recently released a new song featuring Theodore Freidolph from Acres.
Early Bird tickets zijn ondertussen uitverkocht. Maar de regulaire combi tickets zijn beschikbaar. Kostprijs: 115 euro. Voor meer informatie verwijzen we jullie graag door naar de website: https://www.dunkfestival.be/
