Vijf nieuwe bands voor Dunk!festival

Dunk!festival voegt vijf nieuwe bands aan de line-up toe.

En dat zijn de volgende bands! Lees per band een bondige beschrijving.

yoo doo right
This Canadian trio bring together elements of noisy art rock, space rock psychedelia, and post-rock-inspired melodic hooks to create a sound that is somehow massive and sprawling, yet still focused and meticulous. In the truest sense of the phrase, this set is going to be a choose-your-own-adventure type of thing, as it is equally easy to imagine audience members engaged in eyes-closed internal journeys as it to see them dancing free of inhibitions.

ELEANORA
In many ways ambassadors of the archetypal Belgian metal sound, Eleanora constructs a cohesive cross-section of styles, forging post-metal, sludge, and screamo into a familiar but distinctive fusion. They possess an impressive ability to move confidently between scorching ferocity and moody atmospherics, equally as comfortable mounting a passionately emotional crescendo as they are baiting the pit with aggressively chugging riffs.

Stories From The Lost
These veteran post-metallers were once a festival staple, but it’s been a while since they’ve graced our stage. This is a much different animal than what dunk!festival audiences last witnessed, though; not just heavier, but tangibly weightier, this is music designed to crush everything in its path, a heaving, chugging machine that communicates in decibels and forsakes the faint-hearted.

Feed Me To The Waves
This Swedish band encapsulates much of what modern traditional post-rock can be at its strongest, with a careful sense of balance contributing considerably to their powerful, affecting compositions. This promises to be a set thick with atmosphere, one that fosters self-reflection, vulnerability, and eventually an overwhelming sense of connection with our surroundings.

ROOK
This Ghent collective’s take on psychedelic rock is rife with mystery and a dark sort of spirituality, informed by principles of doom metal without being anchored in that genre. They have that special ability to construct a sturdy wall around their music, and it’s nearly impossible to find oneself inside that space without being completely immersed.

Dunk!Festival gaat in 2022 door van 26 tot en met 28 mei.
