Droneburg Festival @ Hamburg


HAMBURG IST DRONEBURG
29. & 30.4.2011

I watched a snail crawl along the edge of a straight razor. That's my dream; that's my nightmare. Crawling, slithering, along the edge of a straight razor... and surviving.” (Colonel Kurtz, Apocalypse Now)

Die unverwundbare Eisen-Schnecke in Apocalypse Now, die Entdeckung der Langsamkeit im Stahlgewitter, die verhaltene Intensität von erstarrender Lava. Als wollten die Bands des Hamburger DRONEBURG-Festivals die stilleren Momente kurz vor der Götterdämmerung zelebrieren, evoziert ihre Musik jenseits von Drone, Doom und Post-Metal monumentale Bilder von gefährlicher Regungslosigkeit und gedrosselter Urgewalt. Alles ist schwer und zäh und gewaltig.

Gemeinsam ist den zwölf, am letzten Aprilwochenende in Hamburg spielenden Bands vor allem eins: Die Verehrung der Gitarre als das wichtigste Instrument ihrer Beschwörungen und Abgesänge. Darum versteht sich DRONEBURG auch als eine Art Stammestreffen mit Gitarren-Workshops, Filmvorführungen und Vorträgen. Diverse assoziierte Labels und Poster-Artists haben zudem ihren Besuch avisiert. Als Hauptquartier dient das Lokal in der Maxbrauerallee 207, das mit den drei Veranstaltungsorten Astra Stube, Waagenbau (Sa.)und Fundbureau (Fr.), ein neues Bermuda-Dreieck bilden kann.

Das bisher bestätigte Line-Up in alphabetischer Reihenfolge; ein paar Bands werden noch hinzukommen:

Boyds Elektro Gitarren Orchester - http://www.nellyboyd.org

Film:
“Such Hawks, Such Hound - Scenes From The American Hard Rock Underground”, Regie: Jessica Hundley & John Srebalus, mit Comets On Fire, Dead Meadow, Kyuss, Om, Saint Vitus, Sleep, Sunn O))), Thrones u.v.a., USA, 2008 - http://www.suchhawkssuchhounds.com

Vorträge:
Die Ästhetik des Dooms - von Arne Ebner (Wall)

The music is characterised by distorted guitars, down-tempo rhythms and strong melodies, and by Patrick Walker's introspective lyrical themes and poignant vocals.

It features five new songs of highly original, melancholic, pained but yet sanguine material.

CATHEDRAL Announces Plans To Disband - Feb. 6, 2011

After a twenty-one-year career, British doom/stoner veterans CATHEDRAL have announce their "retirement" from the scene. The band will make its exit from the live arena at the end of this year and plans to record one final studio album to be released in 2012. Commented vocalist Lee Dorrian; "It's simply time for us to bow out. Twenty one years is a very long time and it's almost a miracle that we managed to come this far! "We've had a great time during CATHEDRAL's existence and it has literally been our life. It's just time to move on and leave our recorded legacy to linger". Since forming in 1990, CATHEDRAL has released nine studio albums and several EPs. A large part of their career was spent recording for Earache Records, debuting with the landmark 1991 doom metal classic "Forest of Equilibrium". This was followed by the seminal 1993 "Ethereal Mirror" album which was released by Columbia Records in America to large critical acclaim. More recently CATHEDRAL has continued to expand on its overall sound, releasing two albums for the Nuclear Blast label. Dorrian continues, "Our latest album, 'The Guessing Game', is exactly where we wanted to be after all this time. Staying in one place, being repetitive and predictable is something we wanted to avoid right from the off." CATHEDRAL recently reunited with the original lineup for their twentieth anniversary concert to perform their aforementioned debut in its entirety. They are scheduled to make several final live appearances 2011, including dates in Japan and at the Maryland Deathfest. More dates will follow, including a farewell London show later in the year. Dorrian concludes: "We would like to take this opportunity to express our sincere gratitude to those special people who have supported CATHEDRAL over the years. It may sound like a cliché but it's certainly true — we simply wouldn't have been able to do it without you. Thanks!" by Blabbermouth.net

Gallow God - Debut EP “False Mystical Prose”


Gallow God originally was a two man project that was formed in 2009, although work on some of the music started as early as 2007. All of the Gallow God material has been recorded at the bands own studio which received a massive overhaul in December 2009. The music can best be described as Epic Doom Metal, but this is also influenced by Traditional Doom and elements of Funeral Doom Metal. Their Debut EP “False Mystical Prose” is currently on sale and the band is working on a new album. http://www.gallowgod.co.uk

MOuNt FUjI & Unloved @ Schaubühne Lindenfels, Leipzig

Erneut steigen zwei Leipziger Bands in den Swimmingpool der Schaubühne. Zum musikalischen Badespaß laden diesmal MoUNt FujI und Unloved .


Wer MOuNt FUjI sind, weiß keiner so genau - bis auf die Freunde von MOuNt FUjI. Was MOuNt FUjI machen, hört man jedoch sofort - Musik, die von tief drinnen heraus will: schwer, ursprünglich und kraftvoll. Nennt es Stoner Rock, Psychedelic oder Doom. Nennt es Metal oder Grunge. In erster Linie ist es Musik aus Leidenschaft, mehr noch: aus innerer Notwendigkeit. MOuNt FUjI meinen es ernst und nehmen sich heraus, dabei Spaß zu haben. Vielleicht bist auch Du bald ein Freund von MOuNt FujI.
Den neuen Songs von Unloved hört man den Blick in den Abgrund durchaus an. Aber obgleich Existenzängste und Selbstzweifel ihre Spuren hinterließen, bricht aus allen Ecken und Kanten noch immer diese positive Kraft, die selbst auf dem sehr erwachsenen und streckenweise auch brachialen Material so unloved-typisch verträumt daherkommt, als spiele hier die Unschuld zwischen rauchenden Trümmern.

Termin: Dienstag, 08.02.2011
Einlass: 19.00 Uhr
Beginn: 20.00 Uhr
Eintritt: 5,50 Euro
