Heavy rock festival HEAVY PSYCH SOUNDS FEST reveals the lineup of performers in Berlin and Dresden!

European stoner, doom and psychedelic rock festival Heavy Psych Sounds Fest has unveiled the complete lineups for the German chapter of their mini-festival series, to take place in Berlin and Dresden over the October 16-17th weekend. A riff-heavy crusade from top to bottom! 

Leading the charge are Polish doom overlords BelzebonG, whose cavernous fuzz and reefer-worshipping swagger need no introduction, alongside Ohio’s riff-worshipping road warriors Valley of the Sun and Portland's own psych-metal conjurors Hippie Death Cult. The bill also features Texas proto-heavy revelers Duel, Italy’s psychedelic power trio MR.BISON, and the swirling, organ-drenched prog rock of Californian goldsmiths Mondo Drag. Early vibes come courtesy of Early Moods, while Freedom Hawk bring their trademark proto-doom heaviness, Lord Elephant deliver crushing, slow-burning fuzz, and hijss round things out with raw, garage psych and punk-soaked energy. Adding a touch of regional exclusivity, Deathchant will raise hell on the Dresden date only, making that stop a must-see for fans of gnarly heavy rock'n'roll.

From monstrous riffs to lysergic soundscapes, this year’s Heavy Psych Sounds Fest lineup is a full-spectrum dose of modern heavy psych and stoner doom — not to be missed when the ritual hits Berlin and Dresden!
