Doomball? What is that?

Doomball is a new project by a group of young enthusiastic people who wants to combine folkballmusic and above all the folkball phenomenon with heavier music like rock, metal and doom.

According to us the music played at a ballfolk is very suitable to make a lot heavier. Think of how many folkies originate from (or are at least are acquainted with) the rock/metal scene? And besides that, on some of the dirty drones and progressive rock you can dance ballfolkdances perfectly well.

It is a project, and we are going to see how it goes. We did gather a group of musicians and we formed a band called Ball Noir (see: http://www.myspace.com/ballnoirproject). We already recorded three songs. You can listen to them on their myspace. Soon we will pick a date and a place for the first Doomball. It will be a night with traditional dance-instructions, a concert of Ball Noir and DJ's.
