Majestic Mountain Records Festival Oslo 2022 Makes Lineup Announcement
That’s a lot of name for a festival, the Majestic Mountain Records Festival, Oslo 2022 Think we can get away with calling it the MMR Fest for short? MMR Fest Oslo 2022? Maybe. I’ll work on it, seems like we’ll have a bit of time before June and there are more announcements to come.
Nothing like unveiling acts, though, for a first-annual festival, as Sweden’s Majestic Mountain Records follows suit behind Heavy Psych Sounds in establishing itself as a festival brand. And the fact that — like HPS fests and like Desertfest — there’s a city in the name of this festival right from the outset tells me that Majestic Mountain Records is already planning or at least considering branching out to other cities.
Perhaps, then, this inaugural edition in Oslo, Norway, might be a proving ground for the whole idea. All the more occasion for the label to do it up right, which seems to be the start they’re giving it. In the first batch of five bands announced for the lineup could be found MaMa Doom making the trip from the USA, recent-signees Old Horn Tooth doing likewise from the UK, and native Norwegian thunderbringers Jointhugger representing the home team alongside Saint Karloff and the just-nominated-for-a-Spellmann Prize Kal-El, to whom congratulations are due. The second round, also five acts, boasts Häxmästaren, The King’s Pistol, Electric Hydra, Bogwife and Grand Cadaver.
Fest is June 18 with a pre-show June 17. Poster, announcements and many, many links follow:
