I'm back from holidays, and that leak I posted of the Soundwave festival has been confirmed! But no venue confirmation yet. For a recap, here it is:
As far as Soundwaves go, it's not as punk/hardcore as focused as all of the earlier festivals, but it is indeed an interesting mix. Bands I'm very excite for include
- Iron Maiden
- Queens of the Stone Age
- Slayer
- Primus (my favourite band)
- Slash
- Rob Zombie (part of the first concert I ever saw)
- Stone Sour (good boys from my old US home)
- Pennywise (not sure how they will be with a new lead singer)
- Gaslight Anthem (think a punk Bruce Springsteen)
- Sevendust (one of my favourite nu metal bands from way back)
- Less than Jake
- The Bronx (as mentioned earlier)
- Monster Magnet (90s grunge-stoner rock)
- Protest the Hero
- the Melvins
- Mad Caddies
- Trash Talk
- Foxy Shazam (keyboard led hardcore funk)
- Nonpoint (I used to drink to their first album in first year uni)
Ok, on second thoughts, it's a pretty good lineup for me. And for metal heads. Like most years, there will probably be no sideshows in Brisbane. However, I will travel wherever I have to go see Primus (hopefully with Foxy Shazam).
