News: first announcements for the Heavy Days in Doom Town Festival 2015 …

These last two weeks saw a busy activity by the committee of heavy music lovers behind the organization of the fine Heavy Days in Doom Town festival in Copenhagen, Denmark. The festival is well known for covering a wide range of genres such as doom, sludge, stonerrock, psych, heavyrock and more.  The next edition of the festival, the 4th one, was announced and a good part of the super fat bill was already uncovered. The fans of this excellent festival have become used to the no-less than monumental bills of this cool festival which is again bound to last for 4 days for its next 2015 edition, between April 30th and May 3rd 2015.


To quote the organizing committee … “Expect something out of the ordinary!”

But the whole thing started with an unpleasant announcement too. As many of you know, this big festival has been and is organized and run according to DIY ethics by the Danish underground music association, “Undergrundsmusikkens Fremme”, the same entity behind the great Killtown Deathfest. The Killtown Deathfest celebrated its’ “funeral edition” last September 2014 with a spectacular event. Well, unfortunately the association decided to put an end to the experience of the Heavy Days in Doom Town festival as well. So the 2015 edition will be the last one too, the “Doomsday Celebration”. Hopefully this will be only a temporary interruption for both festivals.

Anyway let’s appreciate the half full glass, and let’s see what is to be expected for the four days of the 2015 Heavy Days in Doom Town edition, by listing the very first bands so-far announced, only a few but enough for drooling all over like a slug!
