The Melvins will headline the Friday Roadburn date. The Melvins were the first post-punk band to revel in the slow, sludgy sounds of Black Sabbath. Their music is oppressively slow and heavy, only without any of the silly mystical lyrics or the indulgent guitar solos —it's just one massive, oozing pile of dark slime [All Music Guide]. The band's latest album, "(a) Senile Animal" has two drummers on every track and therefore a sound which is certain to providea re-definition of your neighborhood watch's list of offenses.
The Melvins will bring along Big Business as both Jared Warren and Coady Willis, the guys from Big Business, are part of the Melvins too now-a-days. Big Business will play before The Melvins as their set flows directly into the Melvins. Dale Crover will join them on guitar.
Seminal fuzz-rock pioneers Blue Cheer will also be doing a one-off show at Roadburn 2007, co-headlining the festival's main stage, Friday, April 20th, 2007. Dickie Peterson, Paul Whaley & Andrew 'Duck' MacDonald will put emphasis on their legendary albums, "Vincebus Eruptum" & "Inside Outside", guaranteed to free both your ass and bedeviled mind! Hollands very own Orange Sunshine will open up for The Cheer.
The band plays a heady, explosive, fuzzed-out mix of garage-acid-punk and proto hard rock with Detroit-rock simplicity and the very soul of amphetamine driven blues.
Electrifying groove-rock behemoths Clutch will also be playing Roadburn's mainstage...
Meanwhile, over at the festival's Green Room: Seminal Krautrock evangelists Guru Guru will headline, playing legendary tracks as 'Space Baby' and 'Der LSD March' amongst others.
Also on the bill are US metalist The Sword, the lysergic guitar swirls of Pharaoh Overlord, the six-string mayhem of Sun Dial, and Porn straddling the line between drone and heavy sludge / riff rock. Plus a fuzzed-out After Party with the delirious guitar-freak outs of Denmark's garage-psych monsters Causa Sui.
On the Bat Cave stage: heavy 70's afficinado's Josiah & Siena Root, guitar-psychonauts On Trial, and the classic spacerock of Earthling Society. Plus a Psycho-delic After Party with Germany's own Volt & Rotor.
Doors open: 16.00hrs - Start: 17.00hrs.
Renowned art-designers Malleus will expose their poster-art at Roadburn 2007. Malleus' art has been featured in the books: The Art of Modern Rock, by Dennis King and Paul Grushkin, together with artists such as Kozik, Derek Hess, Coop, etc, as well as "Swag posters of the Nineties" by Judith Salavetz.
Orange Goblin will attend the Roadburn Festival as DJ's. Expect DJ set's from Ben Ward and probably Chris & Martyn as well. The band won't play at the festival though. DJ Kozmik Kenb will be spinning records at the 12th Roadburn Festival too -the same goes for Santtu from Finland's DarkSun.

Any reviews of Blue Cheer at the Roadburn Festival, did they change their set list at all?

Blue Cheer Review from a blog
Roadburn Festival
20th April 2007
The last time Dickie Peterson and his band partially removed some of my hearing was back in November 2003 at The Limelight Club in Crewe. It's been a long wait to catch the San Francisco power trio again - often described as the 'World's Loudest Band' - my ears were no doubt thankful of the gap years.
Almost four decades on and it's evident that Blue Cheer still intend on creating earthquake like vibrations as they make a grand entrance with 'Babylon', to co-headline the festivals main stage.
Unsurprisingly, the set tonight weights heavily on the ground-breaking albums 'Vincebus Eruptum' and 'Outside Inside'. Andrew 'Duck' McDonald skilfully unleashes the scorching power of their fuzz fuelled classics - 'Second Time Around', 'Rock Me Baby', 'Parchment Farm' and 'Out of Focus' (which was notably slower than the album version), in a fashion which leaves the audience choking on a frenzy of furious feedback. Despite 'Blue Cheer' being a popular brand of laundry detergent back in the sixties, so far there is nothing clean about the hard edge this band put into tonight's show. Dickie Petersons vocals add to those brutal sounds which positively stab in the chest and resemble a tower like wall of sludgy blues heavy riffage and sustaining bass - all at overwhelming volume, but then what did you expect?
No Blue Cheer set would be complete without their legendary take on Eddie Cochran's 'Summertime Blues', with an intro that must surely be the equivalent of standing on the runway at Schipol Airport, minus ear defenders of course, with a series of heavy jet's taxying by.
Paul Whaley attacks the drum kit non stop – admittedly one bass drum down this time, yet it still sounds like huge rocks careering down a hillside in the midst of an earthquake.
Last but not least– there's a rather classy extended jam based performance around 'Doctor Please', and as the show draws to an end, I am in no doubt that what was just witnessed here tonight was Roadburn's very own high dosage of controlled chaos, leaving my legs and arms feeling like jelly. Superb.
Jus Forrest, April 2007

Did you know it's illegal in Chicago to sleep all night in a cheese factory?  So, it's probably too much to expect crediting the BC MySpace where the information about the review and the video came from but it would be professional coolness to at least thank WALTER of ROADBURN for his quick work getting the videos up. You know, PUBLIC ALLY thank him, as in maybe he or his staff surf the Net and what a feel-good it is to know ones work is appreciated. You know, professional attitude, professional being the operative word ... or, ah, common courtesy ... polite ... all those words ... are they alien? Knowing the venomous shit storm that undoubtedly will follow , I will leave it at that, it's pointless to respond to hollow yammering. |

Did you know it's illegal in Chicago to sleep all night in a cheese factory? No I did not. So did you get arrested for that then? ;D |

That was a great performance by BC even though it was a short n' sweet set that they played they sounded like they completely rocked this is the closest sounding to BC 1968 I think...very fuzzed out, loud and Dickie's voice sounded really good at this show,...really good quality recording of them I hope there is a DVD release of this one

The Child of Nut has Spoken.... whatever that means, I guess it's supposed to be funny? In another area of Egypt, when the pantheon was formalised, Isis became one of the Ennead of Heliopolis, as a daughter of Nut and Geb, and sister to Osiris, Nephthys, and Set. As a funerary deity, she was associated with Osiris, god of the underworld (Duat), and thus was considered his wife. The two females - Isis and Nephthys were often depicted on coffins, with wings outstretched, as protectors against evil. |
