Das Festival-Highlight in der Region Nordbaden

Es ist das Fest nach dem „Fest“, welches jeden Sommer in Karlsruhe stattfindet. Die Rede ist von ROCK am Wald, das vor den Toren von Karlsruhe eine Heimat gefunden hat. Hier gibt es eine Vielzahl an Rock-Bands zu bestaunen und das in einer ganz besonderen Atmosphäre. Denn der Spielort, das Gelände des FC Alemannia 05 Eggstein liegt direkt am westlichen Ende des Hardtwaldes. Jetzt Tickets für 2026 sichern!

Damals, im Jahr 2002, war ein kleines Event für zwei Bands geplant, die im Clubhauskeller des FC Alemannia probten. Doch innerhalb weniger Jahre entwickelte sich dieses kleine Event zu einem der qualitativ Besten seiner Art in der Region. Nachdem sich das kleine Open Air in den ersten beiden Jahren größter Beliebtheit erfreute, erweiterte man das Ein-Tages-Festival um einen weiteren Tag voller Musik. Doch nicht nur gute Bands und Musik liegen den Veranstaltern am Herzen, sondern auch die Hochwertigkeit der Veranstaltung, die von der Musikauswahl bis hin zu den Sanitäranlagen beachtet wird.

Virtuose Covermusik gibt es bei ROCK am Wald zu erleben. Feiern auch Sie mit rund 2.000 weiteren Besucherinnen und Besucher zwischen liebevoller Dekoration und Natur zu toller Rockmusik. Jetzt Tickets sichern!

  • Kylesa
    Kylesa

    Since this Savannah, Georgia quintet first formed in early 2001, worrying about genre limitations has never been a priority. Taking musical chances, however, always has been. While KYLESA are as heavy as any band out there, they are beholden to no one scene and no preconceived notions of what heavy music should be. "Lots of people like to stick to one kind of music," guitarist/vocalist Philip Cope elaborates, "and even with the underground, lots of people segregate themselves into small little categories and place lots of imaginary rules on these scenes." “We just like playing heavy music and we've always liked playing it regardless of what is popular or trendy,” guitarist/vocalist Laura Pleasants adds. “It’s most rewarding for us to try and push our own boundaries of what we can to do with our music and hopefully, in the end, offer something that is at least original.” Kylesa's third full-length, Time Will Fuse Its Worth, is the eagerly-awaited follow-up to 2005’s To Walk A Middle Course, which topped many year end lists and landed the band in metal and mainstream press alike. After grabbing ink in Spin, the New York Times, and metal mainstays Revolver alike, Time Will Fuse Its Worth again showcases the band as the ultimate definition of do-it-yourself dedication. With Cope lending his ears and hands for production duties at The Jam Room, and featuring comprehensive artistic layout and packaging from Pleasants, the KYLESA of current day continues to put the band’s future in their own hands by relentlessly touring Europe and North America alike. Time Will Fuse Its Worth sees the band continuing to evolve upon KYLESA’s signature sound, seamlessly flowing from track to track encompassing listeners with sounds far and wide and an utter disregard for musical boundaries. Bringing together avant-garde experimentalism with the pure fury of dirty, sludgy riffs and raw, coexisting male and female vocals, KYLESA’s ambient noise interludes, grimy rock riffs and impassioned, gruff vocals portray the doom-inspired punishment they are capable of dishing out through the power of the band’s music. Now adding to KYLESA’s signature sound and trademark triple vocal attack is the recent addition of drumming duo Jeff Porter and Carl McGinley. “When we first started the band, we had planned on having two drummers but it didn't work out, so now it feels like everything is coming together,” Pleasants says. “There is definitely a new level of intensity to Kylesa now. Since the new lineup has gotten together we have felt the strongest creative spark yet.” The band's reluctance to attach itself to one sound or scene and to not play by conventional rules, along with that strong creative spark, has ultimately made KYLESA that much more versatile. With a constantly heavy touring schedule has found the band crossing boundaries, sharing bills with bands as diverse as High On Fire, Circle Takes the Square, Coliseum, Torche, and Darkest Hour, as well as playing to enthusiastic crowds throughout Europe. "While we are no kings of one scene," says Cope, "we have, in a sense, just developed our own thing.”

  • Elder
    Elder

    Elder is a genre-pushing rock band that melds heavy psychedelic sounds with progressive elements and evocative soundscapes. Formed in a small coastal town in Massachusetts in the mid aughts, the band has reinvented their sound over the course of five albums to grow from a stalwart of the stoner/doom scene into one of the most unique voices in the rock underground. Their long-scale compositions unfold as journeys, running the gamut of styles from the 70’s to the present within a single song with a penchant for “sheer gatefold-era grandeur” (Rolling Stone).

    1000Mods

    Since their genesis two decades ago, the Greek powerhouse has become a true staple of the international rock scene out thanks to their anthemic songcraft and hundreds of fire-driven live performances across the globe.

    It’s no wonder why 1000mods are considered one of Europe’s most iconic heavy rock bands worldwide. From the early-day breakthrough of stoner rock milestones Super Van Vacation (2011) and Vultures (2014) to the overdriven rock’n’roll charge of Repeated Exposure to... (2016) and the ambitious alt-rock shift of Youth of Dissent (2020), 1000mods let the power of music speak for itself with their no-frills attitude and strong DIY ethics. Transcending genre boundaries and bringing together generations of faithful fans, 1000mods stands as a unique voice of hope and empowerment for those who are lucky to cross their path.

    Slated for a November 2024 release on Ouga Booga and the Mighty Oug Recordings (world) and Ripple Music (US), their highly anticipated fifth album Cheat Death is set to be their heaviest record to date, delivering ten powerful sonic statements packed with metal and punk influences while still delivering a few shiver-inducing gems along the way. 1000mods are ready to trample upon the heavy rock world and take no prisoner, and you’d better be ready for it!
