133 days to go. Tick… tick… tick…
ing the Sophie stage on Sunday are the new, but old school death metal outfit Memoriam.
London’s symphonic metal six-piece, Pythia are looking forward to rocking your face off on Sunday. Perhaps you caught them in London in Feb, playing with Bloodstock alumni, Ensiferum?
This Is Turin will be showcasing their brand of British tech metal on Saturday at Bloodstock this Summer! The band have been busy working on their forthcoming release Thrones.
Also partaking in Saturday’s Sophie Lancaster stage shenanigans are One Machine, the thrashtastic brainchild of Steve Smyth (Nevermore, Testament, Forbidden). Soon to hit the road with Overkill.
Sunday’s final addition are Londoners, Derange.
The first batch of 2016’s Bloodstock club nights are also ready to go! That’s thirty-three pre-festival parties already planned!!
