Roadburn 2024 Announces 20+ Bands Including The Keening, DOOL, Inter Arma and More
Behold Roadburn, Roadburning. Full-album performances, commissioned pieces, whatever the hell Xiu Xiu have going on I guess ever, and a glut of names you either know and are stoked on or don’t know and will likely see on festival bills throughout Europe for the next however many years.
Inter Arma have a new record called New Heaven that doesn’t have a release date yet that I’ve seen but that they’re slated to perform. They, like The Keening, come from the roster of Relapse Records, and The Keening will also have a full album performance for their debut, Little Bird (review here) (they’ll meet up on tour with Bell Witch shortly after; Bell Witch also play Roadburn, likely the first day given tour routing). Grails and Dool also feature, and there are special performances from Die Wilde Jagd, Couch Slut, Verwoed and Void ov Voices, and frankly the fact that White Ward can make it out of Ukraine to play at all should be considered one as well.
More than you could ever hope to fully experience in a span of four days and still just a fraction of what’s actually on offer. As I said in the first sentence: Roadburn, Roadburning. Creative director Walter posted the following on socials. There was a PR wire thing too, but this is a little simpler and I helped edit his quote, so I’ve got it there for posterity for myself as well. If you want more info on any of the below, you know how to use the internet. I’m sure the PR is out there.
Dig:
With this announcement, it all starts to come together. Artistically and musically, we are connecting dots between artists, genres, and audiences. We’re drawing lines between new and exciting bands and Roadburn veterans, attendees new and old. But the key is connection and inclusion. We are finally aligning all the creative elements with which we have been building Roadburn 2024.
These latest additions are instrumental in creating the communal joy of exploration we hope to foster in this year’s Roadburn.

Good announcement. I’m looking forward to the festival.
There was a discussion in the RB Facebook group that Bell Witch would indeed not play this year. They play in Eindhoven on the day before the festival starts. Given that they were not announced yesterday, I assume they are not playing this year. But who knows, maybe you have more info that you can’t reveal yet. (Sorry if that puts you in a bind.) I suppose a secret show is always a possibility.
