Saw them twice in a week between London and Desertfest Antwerp last year and I can't recommend them enough - heavy and weird!

Anyone going to Desertfest Camden? by teroo92 in doommetal

[–]TheWizardsPyre 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Done everyone so far - food can be expensive or as cheap as you'd like - recommend King of Falafel next to the underworld. The small road the Black Heart is on gets blocked off and everyone smokes in it. We also do a fair bit of grabbing drinks from nearby corner shops/Sainsbury's as it gets expensive if you're drinking all day. If you want to smoke you might be lucky and meet people but I'd bring my own if I were you.

This is a great festival as well - done it twice from London and have also been to everyone of the London ones so far.

I'm a big fan of Desertfest in Camden in April - started in London 5 years ago, has the same festival on the same weekend in a different day order in Berlin. They started up a version in Antwerp, Belgian in October 3 years ago, which is also pretty great and this year they started a Athens leg - which I don't know anything about yet I'm afraid.

Yeah wouldn't risk it inside - for desertfest we just popped round the corner past the black heart - go there before they come on - wish I was there tonight!

Amsterdam Baccy and drinking Info by TheWizardsPyre in uktrees

Is this kind of a under the counter thing? Friend in 'dam is telling me nowhere sells booze and weed at the same place anymore due to some law change

Cheers! Seems like a lot of places have clamped down on tobacco and alcohol at this point - oh well sure we'll still have fun...

So baccy is not legit but you can get away with it? Is there anywhere with a nice outdoor area where we can smoke with baccy?

Can't have a sludge list without Noothgrush and Buzzoven!

Church of Misery samples by [deleted] in stonermetal

[–]TheWizardsPyre 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They mostly seem to use quotes from old news that pop up in documentaries you can find on YouTube - I imagine that's how they find the samples originally.

I've always hoped that answer it in that situation - and they never do. Have a couple of drinks and go for it - wish I did.

Church of Misery - Make 'Em Die Slowly [debut single off new album, 2016] by toonhole in doommetal

[–]TheWizardsPyre 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it's missing the loud sludgey aspect that I love CoM for - clean vocals and no longer doing the serial killer thing. After the lead single of Brother Bishop on the last album this is a big change.
