Friends: Ron van Herpen & Jevin de Groot From the Roadburn festival website: “Spawned from the filthy sewers and dark basements of Amsterdam, The Netherlands, Death Alley deliver heavy punked-out proto-metal in spades. The band, revolving around former The Devil’s Blood guitarist Oeds Beydals and ex-members of Gewapend Beton and Mühr, released one the best heavy rock debuts of 2015, Black Magick Boogieland (Tee Pee Records). Black Magick Boogieland sees Death Alley mainline influences such as The MC5, Blue Cheer, Blue Öyster Cult, Motörhead and Black Sabbath; they’re defining good ol’ rock ‘n roll played with metal finesse – with a pitch black psychedelic soul cherry on top. Indeed, Death Alley‘s gnarly shake appeal combines ingenious but blistering guitar parts with the intensity of drumming that justifies the present-day existence of John Bonham’s Vista-Lite drum kit, and will command Roadburn 2016 on Friday, April 15 at the 013 venue in Tilburg, The Netherlands. As there’s such a bond between Death Alley and Roadburn – the band not only played the 2014 Hard Rock Hideout, based on the ‘Over Under’ / ‘Dead Man’s Bones’ 7″, while Mühr did their final show, Oeds Beydals was also invited for a jam session at Mikael Åkerfeldt’s curated event, and payed a very poignant tribute to Selim Lemouchi on the main stage with the remaining enemies – Death Alley will come full circle at Roadburn 2016. Bringing Farida Lemouchi to the 2016 festival, plus inviting some other assorted friends for their performance as well, we can only expect a very special set by Death Alley, revolving around compelling tracks like ‘Supernatural Predator’.“ Alley Disclaimer: “No copyright infringement intended.“ If you are the artist and you aren't happy with this video being up here, i do apologize.
