Uriah Heep confirmed to play Time To Rock

Published: October 13 2023 at 09:11

First up on this release is the legendary URIAH HEEP. The band that was one of the first "Big four" when talking about the first wave of British hard rock. The other three were Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath and Deep Purple. With songs like "Lady in Black", "Stealin'", "July Morning" etc., the sing-along will be heard while the sun sets over Östra Göinge municipality. It will be magical.
Also coming to Knislinge are Finnish THE 69 EYES with their fantastic hybrid between goth and sleaze! Show is promised!
We continue with former Whitesnake guitarist Adrian Vandenberg, who under the band name VANDENBERG will deliver high-octane hard rock of the highest class.
From the USA, founder Kurdt Vanderhoof brings his band METAL CHURCH with him and brings you American metal at its very best.
It will be blues from California through the awesome guitarist (and singer) ALASTAIR GREENE. If you like blues rock, this is really something for you.
If you like 70s glam and bands like T-Rex, Mott the Hoople and Slade, you should check out Swedish VELVET INSANE who have gone from strength to strength.
We end this round with a Swedish band who released their debut album back in 1989. STEELWINGS then fell victim to the grunge death and were put in the mothball but after 5 years they are back and it is undoubtedly very potent Swedish heavy metal from this Markaryd band with the cruel lead singer Tommy Söderberg. What a fucking pipe this man has. Listen!

The Anti-Queens cancel. Scarlet steps in! Scarlet is the name of the alternative metal duo that stirred this year's Melodifestivalen ( Sweden's qualification contest for Eurovision) pot together with Smash Into Pieces. Scarlet made it as far as the finals with "Circus X", which shows that their theatrical rock went home in the cottages. The two anonymous front figures call themselves Scarlet Hunts and Thirsty and are made up like skeletons and vampires respectively. Scarlet was started in 2018 and with only a couple of singles on Spotify, they were on Sweden's big festival stages in 2019, including the Sweden Rock Festival. That gig made Scarlet a...

THE RODS TO REPLACE METAL CHURCH American, classic metal from the 80s, fronted by singer and guitarist David Feinstein - The Rods! Between 1967 and 1973, David Feinstein was in the band Elf with his cousin, Ronnie James Dio. David managed to quit the band before Elf became classic Rainbow and around 1980 he formed and drummer Carl Canedy THE RODS, which was a much harder band than the two previously mentioned. One can find similarities with both Saxon and Manowar. The band had a hiatus between 1986 and 2010, but has since the reunion been all the time active. In addition to David and Carl, the...

Regular campsite is already fully booked! The interest in this year's festival is greater than ever and the regular campsite is already fully booked! This applies to both caravans, mobile homes and tents. This then means that we will extend the campsite and make it twice as big as before. This means that those of you who book your places now end up in the new part of the campsite, but it is still very close to the festival area. The name of the new campsite will be CAMP EXTENSION. The fact that we are extending the campsite also means that we are extending the amenities. We...

Three new acts confirmed! We are slowly but surely approaching a full line-up and today we can present three more acts that are ready for Time To Rock Festival 5-8 July 2024. For 40 years, DORO has worked to cement herself as Germany's, and probably the world's, hard rock queen ##1. Doro started her musical career at home in Germany in smaller bands like Snakebite and Beast before she started singing in Warlock. Warlock released four records in the 80s, from "Burning the Witches" (1984) to "Triumph and Agony" (1989). This summer she will join us at Time To Rock and we think that is...

Hardcore Superstar confirmed! It's been a few years since the last time, so we thought it was about time again for this bunch of real rock stars! Hardcore Superstar was formed in 1997. Since the beginning, the Gothenburg band's permanent members have been singer Joakim Berg and bassist Martin Sandvik. Next year, Magnus "Adde" Andreasson celebrates 25 years on the drum stand, and already this year, guitarist Vic Zino, has his 15th anniversary in the band. Between 1998 and 2003 Hardcore Superstar released four records. In 2005, the band did a "Metallica" and released their self-titled and, coincidentally(?), black record. As a result, the...
