If RC was going to organize a festival....7 bands

[JayKeeley]

A simple thread for fun.

List your festival roster from 1 through 7 (1 = headliner, 7 = opener).

Active bands only, and attempt to avoid bands with huge commercial success. Try to make the festival as 'consistent' as you can, where most fans would likely enjoy most of the bands. Or not, be as sporadic as you like.

:Spin:

1. Queensryche
------------
Candlemass
Orphaned Land
Slough Feg
Primordial
High On Fire
And you should do it in Europe because thats where the heart of metal is pounding (wow)

 

[NAD]

The Lord Weird Slough Feg
Hermano
Acid King
Meshuggah
Dillinger Escape Plan
Hammers of Misfortune
Sunn O)))

Not sure how crazy shit like DEP and Meshuggah would fit with the stoner/doom thing happening all day, but maybe Hammers and Slough Feg could bridge the gap. But who cares anyhow! I'm hear to rock out with my cock out, not play some stupid genre name battle!

 

[Allure of the Earth]

1) Slough Feg (Headlining)
2) Agalloch
3) Orphaned Land
4) Melechesh
5) UnExpect
6) Woods of Ypres
7) Lethal

 

[Reign in Acai]

Headline

Agalloch

Openers

Opeth
Virgin Black
Woods of Ypres
Sun of the Sleepless
Hammers of Misfortune
Sol Invictus
Katatonia

In no particular order to prevent bitching


P.S Am I the only one on this board who doesn't fellate Slough Feg?!?!?

 

[Black Winter Day]

Agalloch
Arcturus
Sigh
Enslaved
Kayo Dot
Nokturnal Mortum
Primordial



Wow. The "all-atmosphere" tour.

 

[J.]

hmmm, off the top of my head:

Neurosis
Isis
Spiritual Beggars
Pelican
Church of Misery
The Black League
Grand Magus

I tried to stay within or around a stoner type sound. These are hardly my favorite bands, but they are the ones that I think I would enjoy a whole lot in a festival setting, especially having Osis/Isis play at night.

My order would be Grand Magus opening (because JB would have to sing again for Spiritual Beggars) and work your way up to Neurosis.

Pagan Altar
YOB
Neurosis

[JayKeeley]

Hey I can understand why you'd keep quiet about a 1 star rating, but 5 stars? Own up!

Some good suggestions so far....I like Demonspell's and IoftheStorm's lists a lot! I think I'll go with:

1. CANDLEMASS (I just think that a good festival should always end with some classic doom from a legendary band like this, especially since their new stuff is still great)
2. PRIMORDIAL (so much great material to choose from, and they can vary from black to pagan to epic)
3. ORPHANED LAND (slap bang in the middle: prog, death, epic, instrumental, perfect)
4. NOVEMBERS DOOM (strong catalog, lots to choose from, heavy and loud)
5. AGALLOCH (self evident, although perhaps they should open...)
6. HAMMERS OF MISFORTUNE (following PA with "when the ax is free from hell, a single stroke shall break the spell" - awesome)
7. PAGAN ALTAR (to start the unholy ceremony !!!)

 

[Krilons Resa]

Ya see, my favorite types of music is atmospheric shit but I dont think it works as well in concert form. I wanna just rock out at a venue. I'll save the Agalloch, Primordial, etc for my own time in the woods or w/e. Just my .02

I came extremely close to listing Primordial though. heh

This is just heaven, but for fuck's shake Pagan Altar are going to open it? (Not to mention that they dont do live shows for now, and for the current future). And what these gay weeping widows called Agalloch have in common with the other bands?
