New England bruisers SCISSORFIGHT are the first band to be announced for the Human_Disease_Promo / WhenPlanetsCollide Stage at DesertFest London 2017.

You can read the writeup here: http://www.desertfest.co.uk/scissorfight




The lineup for the fest as a whole has increased 10 fold too, with the additions of riff maestros SLEEP, the return of stoner legends SLO BURN, trad doom metal mainstays CANDLEMASS and many many more besides, including UK talent in the form of London's GRAVE LINES and Liverpudlian reprobates IRON WITCH amongst others. Check out the lineup so far below. With more still to announce too it'd be wise to grab you tickets before you miss the chance!

***HDP/WPC Stage to Bring a Sonic Oblivion to Desertfest 2016***



It's with immense pleasure that we share the lineup for our stage at this years DesertFest London.. darker, heavier, bleaker and more crushing than ever… We're beyond chuffed to be welcoming to the UK from NYC, for their first return in 7 years, the mighty tri-headed blackened doom beast Unearthly Trance. They play the Underworld on Saturday 30th April alongside alongside Seatle’s epic wild doom merchants Samothrace, French heavy drone pioneers Monarch!, Belfast based monolithic doom outfit Slomatics, Finnish experimental sludge masters Fleshpress official, the first UK appearance of Scandi crusted-doom veterans Counterblast, and England’s own acid-sludge boys BongCauldron. It should be a hallucinatingly heavy melee of righteous dark doom to behold!

Many thanks to the talented Dominic Sohor Design for the killer poster.

The close of April is going to be a dark and heavy time! We can't wait!
