Five Weeks To BLOODSTOCK!

Five Weeks To BLOODSTOCK!

2nd July 2019 0 By John Deaux

 

There’s just over 5 weeks ‘til BLOODSTOCK 2019!  Tickets are moving fast and the last of the VIP tickets will sell out this week, so don’t delay if you want one!   Another batch of Jagermeister Stage bands are locked in and the third phase of ‘Metal 2 The Masses’ winners grab their chance of glory on the New Blood stage. 

 

Romping into a Jager Stage slot on Friday are Black Country stoner rockers, EYES OF THE RAVEN and bringing something a little different is SOPHIE SPARHAM, a spoken word artist and author who’ll be kicking off the Jager Stage proceedings with her music-inspired works, including “When I Grow Up I Wanna Be Napalm Death.”  Gracing Saturday’s stage with their blend of groove metal and hardcore will be DAYBREAKER, and picking up a Sunday slot are southern blues-soaked doomsters, VICTUS

 

BLOODSTOCK is also excited to unleash another wave of New Blood winners from their ‘Metal 2 The Masses’ finals, who all land a spot to perform on the Hobgoblin New Blood stage across BLOODSTOCK weekend.

 

Joining us on Friday are Oxford’s winners, THE HOPE BURDEN, who bring their post-metal sounds, Leeds’ tech-death victors PRAVITAS, blackened noise beasts MARW, who triumphed in Merseyside, Nottingham’s top dogs WIDOWS, with their doom laden riffage, TOMORROW IS LOST who won out in Newcastle with their hard rock cuts, Manchester winners SAURR with their take on modern tech metal, the splendidly named garage/fuzz rockers GOAT MONSOON who took the prize in Essex and finally, Northants champions REAPER X, with their new take on classic thrash. 

 

Picking up a set on Sunday’s New Blood stage are SETHEIST, who bring their melodic metal from Poland’s M2TM final, Norway’s victors, GOLDEN CORE are ‘New Blood’ indeed, a 14-yr old and 17-yr old doom metal duo and two guest bands, hard riffing trio, FALLEN TEMPLES from Wales and closing out proceedings in the headline slot are blackened thrash squad, DAMIM, featuring ex-Akercocke man, Nathanael Underwood.
