US death metal legends Morbid Angel have been confirmed for a guest slot Bloodstock Open Air festival in the UK next year. The show will be their only UK appearance for 2011. In an official release, the festival organisers said: “With the classic core trio of David Vincent, Trey Azagthoth and Pete Sandoval – who are currently preparing a new album for Season Of Mist – MORBID ANGEL are a truly magical musical machine, and this exclusive appearance alongside IMMORTAL, RHAPSODY OF FIRE and TRIPTYKON is one BLOODSTOCK OPEN AIR can be very proud of.” Bloodstock Open Air takes place from the 12th – 14th of August 2011 at Catton Hall, Catton, Derbyshire. Tickets can be purchased HERE. As of today, Season Of Mist are unable to confirm whether the statement is accurate in its mention of Pete Sandoval’s return for this show. Finger’s crossed.
