BOLT THROWER TO HEADLINE DAMNATION FESTIVAL

Death metal overlords Bolt Thrower have been confirmed as headliners of this year’s Damnation Festival, marking its 10th anniversary. This will be the band’s only UK appearance for the “foreseeable future”.

 
The one-off performance – which will also mark the first time Bolt Thrower have ever agreed to appear at a British festival – will be a highlight of Damnation Festival’s 10th anniversary celebrations, with at least 26 more additions to be added across four stages.

 

 

Of the collaboration, vocalist Karl Willets said: “Well, we always knew if we were ever going to play a festival in the UK, it would be Damnation Festival; as we’ve only heard good things about it from mates who’ve been, and other bands who’ve played it. So we’re chuffed our only UK show of 2014 – and the foreseeable future – will be Damnation’s 10th Anniversary Bash… Grind on.”

 
Damnation Festival director Gavin McInally added: “In 2005 we asked Bolt Thrower to play Damnation Festival and there hasn’t been a year that’s passed since that we haven’t sent a hopeful enquiry their way so it’s with massive relief and delight that we’re able to announce our absolute first-choice headliner for Damnation Festival. The band are by far and away the most requested group for Damnation Festival so there could not be a more fitting start to out 10th anniversary preparations than to have Bolt Thrower topping the bill.”

 
Damnation festival takes place on 1 November 2014 at Leeds University Union. Tickets are priced at £36 and are available to buy now, here.
