Bloodstock Announce Killing Joke and Cattle Decapitation Amongst Latest Additions to 2022 Line-Up
Bloodstock have confirmed Killing Joke and Cattle Decapitation amongst the latest round of additions to their 2022 weekender.
Fresh from confirming Behemoth as the final headliner for their 2022 event, Bloodstock has announced nine more bands who will grace the stages at Catton Park next August.
First up the legendary Killing Joke are Sunday’s Ronnie James Dio main stage special guests. Cited as an influence by myriad bands from Slipknot to Napalm Death, Lamb Of God to the Foo Fighters, this band of creative visionaries led by the inimitable Jaz Coleman have been preaching wisdom and bringing the fire for over four decades. Jaz tells us, “Can’t wait to play, always loved Bloodstock festival, looking forward to it!”
Also grabbing a main stage slot on Friday are California sludge squad, All Hail The Yeti. Having opened the main stage back in 2019, the band return in the wake of their latest EP, Within The Hollow Earth.
Moving across to the Sophie Lancaster stage, deathgrind legends Cattle Decapitation and Swedish melodeath squad Orbit Culture land a Sunday billing. Hotly tipped nu-metal upstarts Tallah, Swiss extreme metallers Samael and Swedish metal supergroup Cyhra are added to Saturday’s roster, plus Spanish black metal collective Noctem join Friday’s list. To round out the announcement, Nanowar Of Steel will be bringing their power metal parody skills to Thursday’s ‘opening party night’ line-up.
