The complete line-up for Brainstorm Festival 2013 is now available. As we previously reported Finnish death-doom formation Swallow The Sun will be headlining the festival. Amongst the co-headliners are Theocracy [USA], Benea Reach [NO] + 1. You can find the complete line up below.
Unfortunately co-headliner ReinXeed has cancelled all their performances for the rest of 2013, including Brainstorm Festival. ReinXeed‘s statement can be read here. They are looking for a worthy replacement, we keep you posted.
In total 15 bands will be featured mainstage, plus several extra shows will take place in the theater of the festival like singer-songwriter Rachel Louise [NL]. Also in here all of the audience can join the grunt-version of the King’s Song [‘Koningslied’] to hail the new King of The Netherlands in the most brutal way possible!
And there is more! Like every year an exposition is present, as well as a metal-market. Brainstorm Festival takes place on Friday 1 and Saturday 2 November 2013 in club Gigant in city Apeldoorn, The Netherlands.
Brainstorm Festival was formed in the beginning of 2008 with a clear mission to enter a new era of music festivals as we know it. Brainstorm Festival is known as an independent cultural rock- and metalfestival, that provides a stage to both new talent as well as metal-dinosaurs. The festival combines hardrock with extreme metal. Besides concerts Brainstorm Festival offers a program in the theater of the club with acoustic performances, interviews, debate and competitions. Also there is an exposition taking place each year, plus a small metal-market.
Also: If you visit the Saturday or the whole weekend, you can get huge discount on the afterparty taking place on Saturday 9 November also in Gigant, Apeldoorn [NL]. Headliner for this show is Orphaned Land [ISR].
