London-based doom metallers ORANGE GOBLIN have issued the following update:

"Orange Goblin will headline the Psychotropic Caravan II Festival, which celebrates heavy and psychedelic music and will be held on Saturday, February 6th, 2010 with THE HEADS, LITMUS, PHARAOH OVERLORD and more.

TEMPLES, MR. PETER HAYDEN and TULITERA will play at bar Alakerta on the ground floor of the venue in between the main stage bands.

Psychedelic visuals and cosmic projections will blow your mind on both floors. Psych rock fest veteran DJ Kozmik Ken will spin vinyl at Nosturi, while Psychotropic Zone and Club Planet Caravan DJ’s are present at Alakerta.

Psychotropic Caravan II Warm-Up is on Friday, February 5th at Alakerta. BIG NATURALS - a loud psych rock duo - and SEMTEX - green smoke reeking sludge - play gigs and the night culminates in an Open Stage Deep Space Jam Session.

Merchandise and distros will be present on both evenings."

Further festival details can be found at this location.

A previous update from the band reads: "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.

Tickets for this show are selling out fast and numbers available on the door will be limited, so to avoid disappointment please purchase yours in advance at www.ticketweb.co.uk or via The Scala box office (020 7833 2022)."
