Desertfest UK Announces Lineup Changes
The organisers of the British edition of Desert Fest, which will celebrate it's tenth incarnation next month, have announced that a number of bands have been unable to make it to this year's festival, including Corrosion Of Conformity and The Obsessed. The good news however is that they have booked a number of replacements. A message from the organisers reads as follows:
"Due to circumstances well beyond our control, the following artists are no longer able to perform at DF London ’22: Corrosion of Conformity, The Obsessed/Wino, Khemmis, Somali Yacht Club, Mos Generator, URNE, Shuck.
"We know this news comes as a disappointment however, all is far from lost as we are thrilled to be welcoming 1000mods, Greenleaf, DVNE, Ritual King, Shooting Daggers, Old Horn Tooth & Personal Hell to the bill!
"We hope you understand that touring is still extremely difficult to navigate during these times, with a lot of decisions taken out of our hands. But your continued support of independent live music means everything to us. We cannot wait to see you in a little over a month!
"If you are still after a weekend ticket, the best thing to do is sign up to the DICE waiting list. Or you can nab yourself a Saturday + Sunday (Non-Roundhouse access) combo ticket here.
"More info regarding after-parties, merch + a very exciting reveal of what's going to be on offer down on Greenland Place is all to come.. stay tuned!" More...

Poseidon Signs With Argonauta Records
Russian avant-garde, post-metal band Poseidon has inked a deal with Argonauta Records. The label comments:
"Poseidon founded in 2011 in the land where, as the legend says, once was Tethys Sea - Stavropol city, Russia – began at the end of 2011 releasing the single 'Portals' followed by the single 'Lotuses burning in the fire of Hell' in 2012, showcasing more of an extreme progressive metal sound.
"In September 2013 Poseidon released the EP 'III,' which has more post-metal and atmospheric influences, with a lot of clean male vocals. Today, the distinctive features of Poseidon’s music are the use of orchestration for visual imagery and more cinematic post metal, where avant-garde and post metal collide creating an original wall of sound, reminding of the aggressive tunes of The Ocean and the theatrical touch of Ved Buens Ende."
The new album "Infinity" will soon see release as a digisleeve CD edition, limited to 300 copies worldwide. More...
