ELECTRIC WIZARD & 6 MORE BANDS CONFIRMED FOR UP IN SMOKE
INDOOR FEST 2018
Smokers,
We kept you waiting long enough! Today, we're thrilled to
unveil 7 more bands you'll have the opportunity to witness and worship live at
Up In Smoke Indoor Fest 2018, including our second headliner: the almighty ELECTRIC WIZARD, bringing their new album "Wizard Bloody Wizard" to
make Pratteln tremble once again! Also confirmed:
DOPETHRONE (CAN) - The riff comes in many forms. Sometimes
it's clean and elegant... sometimes it's filthy, grimy and about as elegant as
a sledgehammer to the sternum. "Dopethrone are the kind of humans that eat
the blues for lunch and wash it all down with a giant jug of crust punch! This
is one of those bands that will have the crusty punks head banging right next
to the stoners, both united under the bad sign of doom." (CVLT NATION) The
Canadian will release their new album “Transcanadian Anger” by the end of the
week!
ANCESTORS (USA)
- Ancestors formed in 2006 and instead of "choosing between prog rock or
heavy rock," merged the styles to create music rife with atmosphere,
tension and raw human emotion. They create mighty, modern music that dovetails
innovative arrangement, crushing primordial riff interplay and melodic
instrumental passages with textural atmospherics. They will release their
long-awaited new album this summer via Pelagic Records.
MESSA (IT) - Messa play evoking doom metal with a dark jazz
twist. Deliciously haunting female vocals, rhodes
piano and 70’s fuzz guitars combine to conjure a sound that is all of their own.
With influences as diverse as Windhand, Bohren Und Der Club Of Gore, The
Devil’s Blood, Jex Thoth, Angelo Badalamenti, Bellwitch, John Coltrane and Aluk
Todolo, the band has moved from the droning occult doom of their first LP
“Belfry” to a new, darker and more atmospheric approach clearly showcased in
their new record “Feast for Water”, released in April!
CHILD (AUS) - Hailing from the urban wilds of Melbourne, Australia,
Child combine the heavy emotion of the blues with the tone and raw power of
hard rock to create a visceral musical experience that reaches right into the
chest of listeners. Since the release of their runaway self-titled debut in
2014, Child have continued to develop their unique brand of heavy blues through
constant writing and extensive touring. The band released their latest EP
"I" a few months ago!
HUMULUS (IT) - Humulus is a Psych-Stoner power trio from
Brescia/Bergamo (Italy),
formed in 2009. Their first self titled album was released by Go Down Records
in December 2012. The ten tracks of this first work fully reflect the stoner
attitude of the band and their aggressive sound that is best expressed during
their live shows. Their latest LP “Reverently Heading Into Nowhere”, more
psychedelic and heavier than ever, came out in the Spring of 2017.
GIANT SLEEP (GER/CH) - Giant Sleep are five guys from Germany and Switzerland, worshipping the power
of the riff. The sound of the quintet penetrates the worlds of the subconscious
and incomprehensible with no regard for genres nor boundaries. Modern post- and
prog-rock elements meet the classic sound of the 70s; an original mixture of
lively and creative music. On their second album “Move A Mountain” Giant Sleep
takes you on a journey through rock history and beyond.
