Roadburn Festival - Europe's leading festival for stonerrock & beyond.

Roadburn 2009 will run for three days from Thursday, April 23 to Saturday, April 25 at the 013 venue in Tilburg, Holland. There will be an additional Afterburner event on Sunday, April 26, 2009.

This is a gathering of like minded bands and fans from around the world, joined together by a love of music. This is a celebration of tube-driven distortion and crackling electric guitars, a raising of musical consciousness and brotherly and sisterly love, a communion with THEE MIGHTY RIFF, a time and place to get high en mass and bask in the heaviness.

The Roadburn Festival is a gut level understanding of the heavy rock rock underground for people who crave the rebellious release of rock and roll. People who love being a misfit in a misfit family. People like you and me. Since 1999 we at Roadburn have emphasized the cutting edge, honored the forefathers, and worshipped the riff. The 2009 Festival will be a perfect reflection of what we have always been about.
"Yet again Terrorizer Magazine has been invited to be a part of Roadburn Festival, and yet again we are incredibly proud to align ourselves with such a gargantuan event in the extreme music calendar.

I can think of few other festivals who so wholly mirror our magazine's own passion for the riff, are as enthusiastic about those unique artists that push the boundaries of extreme music and are as obsessed with searching out the most exciting bands on the planet."
"Roadburn Festival is a truly special event that should be an essential ticket for any music devotee. Not only for its steadfast commitment to producing an unrivalled weekender in terms of its enviable line-up, but also because it's a festival by fans for fans and ever since April 21 2008 we have been waiting with bated breath for the announcement of its 2009 edition and are again so thrilled to be involved" --Louise Brown, Editor, Terrorizer Magazine.
