A two day 100 % DIY festival with a fine selection of underground bands presented to you by Hitch and Vlas Vegas Records & Entertainment.Yes, Farmfest is back, and if you still remember anything at all from last year´s edition, we are sure you´ll going to enjoy this one as much as you did back then. All the goodies will be available: fresh drinks, fresh food, homemade ricard, ice creams, a free camping site, silly dancing in or outside the barn, friendly and nice people, Vlas Vegas shitworkers to serve you, and let´s not forget, some awesome bands, as shown below:FRIDAY JULY 4th21h-21h40 NOMAD (B ? Shadowanimals)Back in time, when Cavemen Speak opened up Farmfest, there was this one guy sitting in the corner on stage watching his fellow avant hoppers doing crazy dance steps, but once he got up and opened his mouth to sing his contributions to the unique Cavemen Speak sound, everybody was amazed. The Homesick Nomad, now just Nomad, has released a first critically acclaimed solo album ?Lemon Tea? in 2006, got quite some airplay on national radio, and is now ready to present a new set of songs to the public with a full band! Is it hip hop, is it folk, is it just pop music ? Come and judge for yourself.LISTEN: http://www.myspace.com/homesicknomad22h10-23h SOLE (US ? Anticon Records)In early ´98, Sole and Pedestrian, led by vague visions and strong desires, coined the name "anticon" and decided to establish a broad-minded collective of rule-breaking rap musicians. Anticon Records was born and gained a reputation through artists such as Sage Francis, Jel, Doseone, Alias, Dosh, Why and many others?Sole made music with all of these gentlemen and others such as the legendary DJ Krush, Atmosphere, and Sixtoo. And now he is coming to bloody Aalbeke with his mix between IceCubism and experimentalism. Get ready to wave hands and shout out.LISTEN: http://www.myspace.com/timholland23h-5hDJ´s Vlas Vegas homies versus the Shadowanimals. Hip Hop extravaganza and loud guitars!SATURDAY JULY 5th16h-16h30 ABRACADAVRE (B ? K-Town Locals)Abracadavre is local, K-Town, new, loud, heavy, and all gloom and doom. A brutal start is what we need after the Friday party!LISTEN (well, umm, not yet): http://www.myspace.com/abracadavre17h10-17h50 STEAMER CRY WOLF (B ? Alosta)Steamer Cry Wolf is one of the mystery bands from the Alosta area. Album titles such as ?no fak w. artjom?, not exactly a lot of live performances, experiments with poetry, and yet they are a band to be discovered urgently. So we are here to serve you. Steamer cruises in the fields between post rock and noise rock, between melancholy and rage, melodies and noise, trance kraut rock and post punk. If you have ever wandered around in Alosta, you can imagine a soundtrack played by Steamer Cry Wolf.LISTEN: http://www.myspace.com/steamercrywolf18h30-19h15 CUTTING PINK WITH KNIVES (UK ? Holy Roar)Breaking news: Cutting Pink With Knives is splitting up, so this will be your last chance to see them and never forget them. Yes, we do ignore Rock Herk. Cutting Pink With Knives consists of Edi ?fuck my ankle-warmers? Frankel, Chris ?taste my pie? Abitbol, and Alex ?dipping between the cock and the arse? Fitzpatrick, and they sound exactly as their names. Glitch punk speed core spaz metal and live an absolute sensation. Protect your cameras.LISTEN: http://www.myspace.com/cuttingpinkwithknives20h-20h40 KINGDOM/SYNDROME (B ? Church of Ra)While Amenra is touring the world and getting ready for world wide stardom after the release of their ?Mass IIII?, three of those guys still have some time left for some interesting side project: Kingdom and Syndrome will play a mixed set with both bands, Kingdom being a trio and Syndrome in fact a solo project. Kingdom limit the power of Amenra to a more compressed outburst of anguish, while Syndrome delivers dark soundscapes with occasional drums and deformed vocals. One of the first times these two bands play live, so take this chance. LISTEN: http://www.myspace.com/kingdomcomeshttp://www.myspace.com/noisesyndrome21h15-22u05 SIGHTINGS (US ? Load Records/Ecstatic Peace)Sightings is a trio. They use bass, drums and guitar. Someone sings. Still they sound like fucking Einst?rzende Neubauten when those were still good and loud. This New York trio recently released their sixth album on Load and Ecstatic Peace, labels known for a good portion of noise. But ?Through The Panama? sounds more like a noisier versions of Liars mixed with the sheer harsh guitars of Mouthus. Hey, they have some tunes you can dance on. Sightings is an experience, not a music group. Tune in, turn on, burn out.LISTEN: http://www.myspace.com/sightings22u35- 23u25 CHEVEU (FR ? Born Bad)Cheveu comes from Paris and is here to start the party before the party even starts. That´s all you need to know. Trashy drum machine punk, casio experiments, robotic blues, repetition and tribal rhythms, Cheveu does it all and they do it well. Perfect music to get very, very drunk to. Enjoy!LISTEN: http://www.myspace.com/cheveu23h30-5hDJ´S M!CH & CLARK C.
