Time to start gearing up for
Roadburn 2013! After announcing festival headliners
Godflesh and
Electric Wizard at the outset of the 2012 festival, and we can now start unfolding the full line up as it falls into place. We are truly thrilled to be able to announce that maniacal power / prog / thrashers / black metallers
Sigh will be playing
Roadburn‘s Afterburner on
Sunday,
April 21,
2013 at the
013 venue in
Tilburg,
Holland.
Sigh have been shocking and confusing music fans since 1990, when they started their existence as one of the first black metal bands to ever come out of Japan. Their sound has been evolving ever since, first incorporating bizarre psychedelic elements and strangely juxtaposed song parts, then adding more styles and technical proficiency. On their latest record
In Somniphobia from earlier this year, they offer up progressive power metal with supreme technical chops and a penchant for speed matched only by their ability to deliver the unexpected.
They are a perfect band for the
Afterburner show because no matter how strange the bands are in the first three days of the festival,
Sigh will offer up something unseen and unheard before.
Roadburn Festival 2013 will run for four days from
Thursday,
April 18th to
Sunday,
April 21st,
2013 (the traditional
Afterburner event) at the
013 venue in
Tilburg,
Holland.
