Bloodstock isn't brilliant. Hellfest is by far the best festival around these days, it just costs me a fortune to travel to France. Still, its worth it, I can't wait for it to come around, because last year was amazing, Taake were superb.

They could filter out some of the shit bands like Earth Crisis, but fucking Carcass man, I cannot fucking wait.


Thats a lot of bands. How many people go to Hellfest? I bet its a shite load. I want my festivals to be smaller...ie Bloodstock. And closer, ie Bloodstock. And Carcass played last year. And they rocked.

But yeah I'd like to go to Hellfest, must venture to a European festival at some point. Seems the next logical step.


There were about 20,000 people last year.

Happy days, Onslaught were just added to the bill! Thrash, and British thrash at that!

Edit: Criminally early in the listings I might add!

Ummm it was actually around 10,000 people. I'm not sure of the exact number, but they did release it on the forum not long after 09.
