Three More Acts Added To Bloodstock 2015 Line-Up

Three fresh acts have been added to next year’s Bloodstock line-up.

Following Emperor’s rapturously received headline slot last month, frontman Ihsahn will bring his solo project to Catton Park next summer.

The Norwegian composer said: “At this year's BLOODSTOCK I had the great pleasure of finishing off our 20th Anniversary Tour of ‘In The Nightside Eclipse’, and next year, I am really looking forward to returning with a whole new Ihsahn set. Nostalgic. Contemporary. I get to do both! See you all there!”

Also bringing their deliciously evil sounds to the festival are Satan’s prodigal sons Cannibal Corpse.

The band said: "We are proud to announce we will be playing Bloodstock 2015! We wanna see all you sick fans there. This will be our only UK festival show for all of 2015. Nowhere better to celebrate metal than at Bloodstock. Be there."

Completing the trio of additions are mighty Brazilian metallers Sepultura.

Guitarist Andreas Kisser enthused: “"We are very happy to come to the UK’s Bloodstock Festival again! We had one of the best experiences last time and we cannot wait to bring the songs from the Mediator live! See you all soon!! DESTROY!!!"

The newly confirmed acts join Saturday night headliners Within Temptation and their very special guests Opeth.

Bloodstock takes place from Thursday 6th to Sunday 9th August 2015. For more info head to www.bloodstock.uk.com.
