The charismatic hellraiser and showman Rob Zombie takes his fiery rock show to Denmark’s Roskilde Festival 2014 for an unforgettable celebration of heavy metal and bad taste.
Rob Zombie is known for his extravagant shows in the depraved rock tradition of Alice Cooper and Ozzy Osbourne.
His devilish treats are based on cartoons, bloody horror movies and naturally raven-black hard rock that is danceable, scary and wickedly funny.
Roskilde Festival’s program director Anders Wahrén says:
”We’re convinced that Rob Zombie and his crew can deliver the goods to both the fans who have followed his career since his time with White Zombie, and to the unsuspecting festival guests who love a visually stunning rock show with lots of fire, smoke and costumes on Roskilde Festival’s stages”.
More experimental and brutal metal
Also, experimental metal collective Corrections House, including members from renowned metal bands Neurosis, Eyehategod, Minsk and Yakuza, are added to the line-up along with Detroit-based The Black Dahlia Murder. The latter delivers fast, furious and fun death metal in the vein of Carcass, At The Gates and In Flames.
Rob Zombie, Corrections House and The Black Dahlia Murder are the latest additions to Roskilde Festival’s metal line-up that already offers Bombus, Carcass and Nails.
Approximately 160 acts are expected to play at Roskilde Festival in 2014. The line-up already includes acts as diverse as Arctic Monkeys, Major Lazer, Haim, Pusha T, Trentemøller and MØ.
