BLOODSTOCK add even more of the metal!
The award-winning BLOODSTOCK is excited to announce yet more additions to the 2014 event! There are still even more bands to add in the coming weeks!
The mighty TRIPTYKON join the main stage bill on Friday. Having dropped much-lauded second album, 'Melana Chasmata' through Century Media Records last month, the band, fronted by Hellhammer/Celtic Frost visionary, Thomas Gabriel Fischer, make their second appearance at Catton Park, after first pleasing the masses back in 2011. If you like collectable editions, check out the delicious formats of 'Melana Chasmata' in their online webstore - https://shop.triptykon.net/. We're also quite partial to those candles on offer!
The Sophie line-up keeps building with experimental/multi-genre metal outfit, OBSIDIAN KINGDOM joining Saturday's bill. Hailing from Barcelona, the progressive five piece recently announced their signing with the uber-respected Season of Mist label and have been working on remixes for the likes of Cult of Luna and God Seed. For more info on the band, look up https://obsidiankingdom.com/ or www.facebook.com/obsidiankingdom. Check out the official video for 'Ball-Room' here; https://youtu.be/QSjtsxoF7BA.
The Sophie stage also welcomes the bonkers JALDABOATH to Thursday's party night line up. Hammering Heraldic metal? Castle-dwelling cacophonic rock? Head-banging horse-riding heaviness? Teutonic Templar sonic terrorism? Call 'em what you want, but they'll be bringing their entertaining medieval riffery to Catton Park. Check 'em out here: https://youtu.be/br3OgQVfhfM and look 'em up at https://www.facebook.com/Jaldaboath.
Northern Ireland's STORMZONE also join Sunday's line up on the Sophie stage. The classic metallers released new album, 'Three Kings' in 2013 and you can check out the video for the title track here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uJUzEOicHOU. Get more info on the band over at https://www.stormzone.tv/.
British black/death metal newcomers, STAHLSARG are also added to Sunday's Sophie bill. The five piece are working on their debut album which is set for a 2015 release. In the interim, get clued up on the band by checking out https://stahlsargofficial.com/ or www.facebook.com/stahlsarguk.
