The band tell us: “We’re beyond excited to be playing Bloodstock. Every year we’re in awe of how good the line up is, so for them to ask us to jump on board is a real privilege.  See you guys in the pit for Megadeth!”

On Saturday, London’s The One Hundred will also play the Sophie stage.

“BLOODSTOCK is one of the finest heavy music festivals on the circuit and we are excited to be joining an already amazing lineup.  See you in August!” The band said.
