ROADSAW Replace SOLACE On Bill For ORANGE GOBLIN Christmas Show
December 10, 2009, 14 years ago
London-based doom metallers ORANGE GOBLIN have issued the following update:
"It is with great sadness that we have to inform you that due to circumstances beyond the bands control, SOLACE will NOT be performing at the Orange Goblin show at The Scala, London on Saturday, December 19th.Boston's kings of rock, ROADSAW, will now be main support.
The bill also features CENTURIONS GHOST, SONS OF MERRICK, and we are very happy to announce the addition of HONKEYFINGER!!! People may be familiar with Mr. Honkeyfinger as he guested on the track 'Beginner's Guide To Suicide' on the last OG album Healing Through Fire! Honkeyfinger is the one man band from the bowels of the earth, erupting molten fuzz lapsteel, screaming harmonica riffs and desperate bestial howling in a scorching hot cocktail of heavy raw blues power. The Honkeyfinger sound hotwires the electric freak rock of vintage BEEFHEART, BLUE CHEER, ZZ TOP and BLACK SABBATH into a jumping, lurching monster. Boiling up the ghosts of BUKKA WHITE, LEADBELLY and JOHN LEE HOOKER with the bones of the country blues, laced with the acid fried heaviosity of the BUTTHOLE SURFERS - this is the thick stinking soup that Mr.Honkeyfinger serves. You can check out the Honkeyfinger sound at myspace.com/honkeyfinger.
