Black Cobra Added to Stumpfest 2014 in Portland, OR

Look, I try to cover as wide a geographic range as I can. I do my best. It’s a big planet and there’s rock everywhere, and a lot of it is seriously killer, but when it comes to something like Stumpfest, which is set to take place April 24-26 at Mississippi Studios in Portland, Oregon, I’d probably be way more stoked about it if there was any chance in hell I could ever get there to see it. That said, if you’re in that part of the world and not already punch-drunk from the righteous heaviness to which you’re exposed on a daily basis — I hear the streets of Portland are paved with limited Red Fang vinyl — Stumpfest does look like a pretty killer way to spend a weekend. Call me jealous.

The latest addition to the lineup — which apparently still has a special guest to come — is Black Cobra, who as history has shown are always great at a party.

I’m late on the PR wire update, but here goes:

BLACK COBRA added to the STUMPFEST 2014 lineup!

Black Cobra, the devastatingly heavy duo hailing from the bay area and backed by Southern Lord Recordings, has been added to STUMPFEST 2014! The band’s recent album, Invernal, was described by The Sleeping Shaman as “the sound of a schizophrenic octopus, high on speed, hard liquor and murderous hatred trapped inside the body of a man locked in a darkened jail cell,” so you know they can’t be missed. The three-day festival, organized by beloved Portland metal-scene expat Rynne Stump, will churn out heavy tunes from the city’s legendary metal acts and their closest friends at Mississippi Studios on April 24-26. Links for prices and more info through the venue website will be provided in two weeks on the venue website. Stay tuned!
