Avatar, Red Method and More Set for Bloodstock Open Air 2022; Philip H. Anselmo & The Illegals Drop Out
Bloodstock have confirmed Avatar, Red Method and more amongst the latest round of additions to their 2022 weekender.
In just over seven months time, Bloodstock Open Air Festival will return to Catton Hall for the 2022 metal weekender set to be headlined by Lamb of God, Mercyful Fate and Behemoth who will be joined by a massive supporting bill including Testament, Lorna Shore, Hatebreed and many more.
In the first announcement of 2022, organisers have confirmed twelve new acts along with the news that, due to the cancellation of their entire European Tour, Philip H.Anselmo and the Illegals will not be appearing with their Sunday Main Stage slot being filled by grindcore heavyweights Cattle Decapitation.
Eight of the new acts added to the bill will be appearing across the Sophie Lancaster Stage with Swedish rabblerousers Avatar (Friday) heading up the eight which also features Thrown Into Exile(Friday), Pupil Slicer and Cage Fight(Saturday) and Ill Nino, Guilt Trip, Skarlett Riot and Desert Storm appearing on the Sunday.
Over on the Ronnie James Dio main stage, the super-buzzy Des Moines, Iowa upstarts Vended are set to kick off proceedings and blow your Sunday morning wide open. Epic Swedish doomsters Sorcerer and industrial metalheads Red Method are also both added to Friday’s bill, and waking you all up first thing on Saturday, will be Danish death metallers, Baest.
