Freak Valley 2025 Adds The Sword & Highway Child Reunions and More
I’ll admit it’s been a minute, but if you remember circa 2008/’09, Danish heavy rockers Highway Child released two banger records through Elektrohasch. I need to revisit, and will sometime in the next few Fridays, but a reunion adds to the appeal of the already badass and already long-since sold out Freak Valley 2025, which will also feature a stop from The Sword as they celebrate their reunion likely with a European summer tour, and new additions Battlesnake, Häxer and DZ Deathrays, who’ll bring some of that Australian punk energy last year have highlighted in Amyl and the Sniffers and C.O.F.F.I.N. — it’s a kick in the ass but one you need.
It’s a strong lineup, though, with Motorpsycho, Windhand, Dead Meadow, The Devil and the Almighty Blues, Early Moods, Kombynat Robotron, Travo and so on. Hell, Wedge are going to be there, as I also very much hope to be. I don’t have my flight booked yet, and I never call it 100 percent until I’m on the plane, but this is one I’m looking forward to seeing, and as always, thanks to Jens Heide and the Freak Valley crew for having me, as well as for once again having The Obelisk logo on the poster. Being in the company of Rockpalast and Rock Hard magazine there continues to be humbling.
Here’s the latest:
FREAK VALLEY FESTIVAL 2025 – BAND ANNOUNCEMENT!
Get ready, Freaks! This year’s lineup is bringing the heat with an exclusive Germany show from none other than THE SWORD – heavy riff lords returning to melt faces!
But that’s not all – Danish psych-rockers HIGHWAY CHILD reunite for an exclusive Germany show, a rare chance to witness their magic live!
Also joining the madness: the serpentine shredlords BATTLESNAKE, occult doom sorcerers HÄXER, and the high-voltage energy of Aussie punk-rockers DZ DEATHRAYS.
This one’s gonna be legendary. See you in the Valley!
