Wipe away those January blues, because Bloodstock has three more bands locked and loaded, ready to level Catton Park in August!
The Metal Allegiance project joins the bill! You never know who’ll show up on stage at a Metal Allegiance show, but the line-up confirmed so far includes Testament’s Alex Skolnick, Death Angel’s Mark Osegueda, Anthrax’s Scott Ian & Charlie Benante, Russell Allen from Symphony X, Gary Holt from Slayer & Exodus, Mike Portnoy of Twisted Sister/numerous other projects, plus Metal Allegiance leader, Mark Menghi. Mike Portnoy says “I’m so excited for Metal Allegiance to make their UK debut at one of the most metal festivals on Earth! The perfect audience to share this brotherhood of metal with.”
Who else might step into their ranks for the day? You’ll have to be at Bloodstock to find out!!
Also joining the 2016 line-up are Atlanta’s rap metal pioneers, Stuck Mojo. Having reformed in 2014, the band are active once more and this year celebrate the 20th anniversary of their second album, ‘Pigwalk’.
The band have been working on a new album with producer Andy Sneap.
Mighty New Orleans metallers, Goatwhore also join us as Friday’s Sophie Lancaster stage headliners! The band are hard at work on their new album which is expected to see the light of day later this year.
