BLOODSTOCK announces four more for 2019…

As the festive season descends upon us, BLOODSTOCK come bearing gifts!  Four more bands for 2019!

Saturday’s special guest on the Ronnie James Dio main stage will be none other than thrash titans, ANTHRAX. The band are set to start work on a new studio album in 2019, so maybe we’ll get to hear something new at BOA19! 

. In a UK exclusive, Norwegian black metal legends DIMMU BORGIR join the bill as BLOODSTOCK’s special guests on Sunday.  After an eight year gap, the group released their tenth studio album, ‘Eonian’ via Nuclear Blast in May. Adding to the main stage fun on Saturday, are Australian deathcore beasts THY ART IS MURDER.  While the band have four albums, including their most recent, ‘Dear Desolation’ to familiarise yourself with, they tantalisingly just dropped a brand new track on Black Friday.  Listen to ‘Death Perception’ over at geni.us/TAIMDeathPerception.

Homegrown British act TESSERACT bring their blend of djent and progressive metal to Catton Park on Friday.  Most recently, the band have been traversing Europe with touring buddies Between The Buried And Me.

These four bands join the previously announced Friday night headliner, SABATON, Sunday’s bill toppers SCORPIONS, together with CHILDREN OF BODOM, CODE ORANGE, SOILWORK, CRADLE OF FILTH, METAL CHURCH, SKELETONWITCH, DEATH ANGEL, DEE SNIDER, QUEENSRYCHE, ELUVEITIE, EVIL SCARECROW, ROSS THE BOSS, GRAND MAGUS, ROTTING CHRIST and HYPOCRISY on the Catton Park stages next August.  Stay tuned for more bands to be announced in the New Year!
