With just under 100 days until the biggest metal festival in the UK returns for another year, the organisers of Bloodstock have confirmed another seven killer bands for this year’s billing! Leading the charge in today’s announcement is progressive symphonic metallers EVERGREY, who land a slot on The Ronnie James Dio Stage, whilst MONUMENT are tasked with the prestigious role of opening the main stage on the Sunday!

Also confirmed for this year’s festival is NAILED TO OBSCURITY, who perform on the main stage on the Saturday, whilst WITH THE DEADSODOMIZED CADAVERLIMB and DEITY’S MUSE all will perform on The Sophie Lancaster Stage. Speaking about performing at this year’s festival, LIMB says, “we can’t believe what a great honour it is to be asked to play this amazing festival! Our labelmates VODUN & BLACK MOTH have both played incredible sets on the Sophie stage and now we get our chance to join them in stamping our name into the amazing Bloodstock story. We’re ready to make some ungodly noise for you all!” DEITY’S MUSE‘s Wayne Boucher adds, “I nearly choked on my coffee the morning we found out that we’re included in this year’s gargantuan Bloodstock lineup. To say that we’re excited about the opportunity is a gross understatement. We can’t wait to share our music with the BOA festival goers in August. This is literally a dream come true for us four weirdo South Africans.  We’re salivating at the prospect!”
