StonerKras Fest 2025 Announces Truckfighters to Play
After a 2024 lineup that featured Colour Haze and Black Rainbows, among others, the Trieste, Italy-based StonerKras Fest is starting big with its 2025 reveals — no less than Swedish fuzz kingpins Truckfighters will take part. Among the most reliable live acts heavy rock and roll has ever produced, Truckfighters will play this show as a regional exclusive, Trieste being situated near the Italian/Slovenian border.
I don’t know how many acts the festival will ultimately have – last year’s StonerKras was an eminently manageable five bands — but particularly if you’re looking for a smaller fest-type event where you can take your family, this is one to keep in mind. I’m doing the same, for whatever that might be worth. Tickets are up for presale now, and I will do my best to keep up with announcements and details as they emerge.
For now, from the PR wire:
*** STONERKRAS FEST 2025 ***
– 12.07.2025 – Prosek-Prosecco (Trieste, ITA) –
IV edition
StonerKras is a psychedelic music gathering based on stoner, doom and heavy psych music. The festival has an international footprint but with the aim of enhancing the local heavy scene (both Slovenian and Italian) while attracting spectators from the region but also from neighboring countries.
Youth aggregation and cultural exchange accompanied by good music.
!!! FIRST BAND + TICKETS PRESALE ANNOUNCED TODAY !!!
*** TRUCKFIGHTERS ***
– stoner fuzz rock legends from Sweden –
!!! VERY EXCLUSIVE SHOW FOR ITALY, SLOVENIA and CROATIA IN THIS 2025 !!!
If you are interested in groovy, stoner-influenced, progressive and melodic hard rock you probably know about Truckfighters already. “The best band that ever existed” as Josh Homme said in the 2011 “fuzzomentary” Truckfighters. You might also know the story about how Niklas ‘Dango‘ Källgren teamed up with bassist and vocalist Oskar ‘Ozo’ Cedermalm in a worn down rehearsal space in Örebro, Sweden in 2001 and how the first song they ever recorded, Desert Cruiser, since then has gone on to become a desert rock anthem. You probably also know that the band itself has gone on to release five full length albums and played sold out shows on four continents.
Truckfighters have become a fundament in the ‘stoner rock/metal’ sub-genre with fans all over the world enjoying the crazy live shows and the fuzzy sounds…
After more than 20 years as a band it is safe to say the touring is less frequent than the most intense years of the band. Just as safe as is it to say that the shows will be better than ever and as always with a hell of a fuzzy sound!
+ more bands TBA !!!
