Alt-whatever, post-something, progressive “this” and experimental “that” is something i have always found interesting. Whatever you decide to call the different type’s of sub-genres in rock and metal today, it is a fact that these band’s often are the ones bringing the innovation to rock and metal music in general.
I recently found out that a newcomer in the festival-scene of Europe is “Smoke the fuzz festival”. The festival consists of three seperate occation’s during this fall that houses such great act’s such as: Yob, All them witches, Electric Moon, Russian Circles and a very special show with the post-metal legends of Cult of Luna. Cult of luna is playing their end show of this tour at Smoke the fuzz fest. The tour is a one-time chance to see the band perform their latest album “Mariner” with none other than Julie Christmas. This famed singer that were a part of gamechanging act’s such as Battle of Mice and Made out of Babies.
I will personaly attend the ending weekend of Smoke the Fuzz fest where my two favorite bands: Russian Circles and Cult of Luna will be performing their latest albums (which both released just a few months ago).
If you are a fan of alternative-metal then i highly recommend you checking out Smoke the Fuzz.
