Killing Joke are fucking superb, Orbit Culture & Nanowar of Steel are great too.

When's the next announcement die? I need more bands! Could be a while without Vicky, whoever's doing their job will need to try to pick up wherever things were left off, won't have the same connections that she had, might still be dealing with fallout from what happened and also may want to put the...

Because what the mainstage needed was more thrash

Amazed that Dark Funeral are currently showing as 2nd on the bill on mainstage. Surely they aren't remotely that big? I wouldn't've thought so. Usually when a band's in the special guest slot it's stated in the announcement. Wasn't for Dimmu this time round though pretty sure they said so when they...

I do wish these announcements would include something about the band's actual sound rather than random terms like "metal crew" and "noiseniks"

It's incredible that for this year's fest, with all the complications & restrictions, the line-up was so much better than next year's.

"For now, Vicky has taken a step back from Bloodstock Festival effective immediately, and will be taking the time to properly educate herself for a better understanding." If that's just Vicky taking a break from Twitter and Instagram I think there'd be a lot of very disappointed people. Wh...

And we're ever-grateful to our dark overlords.

Titles aren't typically included in email signatures (other than professional ones) which is good because it stops defining women by marital status (Mrs/Miss/Ms). Adding pronouns after your name isn't supposed to then become part of your salutation, just extra info so you know how they'd like to be ...

Well north sea storm & metaldinosaur, y'all seem weirdly obsessed with strangers' genitals. I'm concerned with being forced to lie. It's a genuine concern. It's not a lie if you don't know the truth so unless you've carried out some sort of intimate inspection of all your acquaintances then all...

The idea that using someone's preferred pronoun is lying interesting perspective that I'd not considered before and entirely disagree with. For me it's more a lie than using someone's preferred nickname.

Bloodstock have announced Vicky's stepping down from her role, for now, effective immediately following her Tweet yesterday. Be interesting to see if this affects how the line-up looks for next year's fest though I'd expect a lot of the big hitters are already locked in or at advanced stages of nego...

Alice would be sweet

Vicky tweeted that she's booked the third headliner a couple of days ago. Was hoping for Avatar and the lack of announcement was because they were waiting til after the tour but if they weren't booked then it could be anyone.
