The countdown is ON!  Just 21 weeks until the metal hoardes invade Catton Park’s hallowed ground for BLOODSTOCK and organisers are expecting another sold out event in 2018!  As Spring begins, there are plenty more bands to announce, and here are the latest additions!

Death metal icons, CANNIBAL CORPSE join us as Saturday’s special guests on the Ronnie James Dio main stage!  If you’re missing them on their current UK tour, don’t despair, BLOODSTOCK is here to rectify that situation!  Check out the Tampa, FL-based band’s horror flick video for ‘Code of the Slashers’ taken from current album, ‘Red Before Black’ and warm up those necks for August!

If you’re a fan of bands like Lamb of God and Machine Head, don’t miss Friday’s Sophie Lancaster stage special guests, BLEED FROM WITHIN.  The hotly tipped Scottish metal crew will no doubt be sharing a few choice cuts from their upcoming fourth studio album ‘Era’, set for release this April via Century Media.

Epic doom brotherhood, GODTHRYMM also join the Sophie stage bill on Friday. Featuring ex-members of Vallenfyre, My Dying Bride, Anathema, Solstice and Malediction.

BLOODSTOCK is always proud to give bands from far-flung places the opportunity to play in front of a big crowd and our media friends, so this year we’re excited to welcome UNDERSIDE all the way from Nepal!  The band join us for a slot on Sunday’s Sophie stage.
