Neurosis are making their live return to Europe next year: "“There are few places in the world that feel like home to our music the way Roadburn does."
After playing their first show live for seven years at Fire In The Mountains in Montana, Neurosis are heading back to Europe to play two sets at next year’s Roadburn.
Earlier this year, the post-metal pioneers surprise released their first new full-length for ten years, An Undying Love For A Burning World. It also marked a return to activity after founding member Scott Kelly was fired following his admission of domestic abuse, and was their first material to feature Aaron Turner of Isis on guitar and vocals.
“There are few places in the world that feel like home to our music the way Roadburn does; where we are in the company of kindred spirits who share our endless obsession for emotional, genre defying, independent heavy music,” says Steve Von Till. “Roadburn is a place where the fourth wall, that imaginary boundary between artists and audience, dissolves as we all become one: a community that gathers together to honor and celebrate the healing power of intense dark music as a way to stay sane in an insane world.
“Now, as we have re-emerged from the darkness with the album of our lives, we can’t imagine making our return to Europe in any place other than Roadburn."
Roadburn adds: "From our perspective too, it is hard to imagine Neurosis making their live return in Europe anywhere other than here with us - call us biased, but this feels right. Life is not the same as it was the last time Neurosis had their name on a Roadburn poster - many things have changed in the intervening years, here in this cocoon of heavy music, as well as out there in the world - but knowing that this bond between us remains is a source of comfort and a genuine reason to celebrate."
More details of the two sets Neurosis will play will come out in due course. Roadburn returns from April 15-18, 2027, in Tilburg, Netherlands.
