Candlemass are a fantastic addition, as are Russkaja. Quite like Gaerea, Striker, Witchsorrow and Wytch Hazel too. Pretty decent lineup this year, surprisingly.

Also chuffed with Candlemass! :D Shame that Whitechapel were prioritised as a headliner over them tbh. Actually gives us an alternative to core on the Friday night which is nice. I was actually meant to be seeing them next month at HRH Spring Break but in typical HRH fashion their name has mysteriously disappeared from the poster with no word from the organisers. So done with HRH at this point. :rolleyes:

Well happy with Tribulation as well - Sunday is the day of goth with Unto Others there too. :love: A few of the other bands in this announcement have caught my ear, particularly Wytch Hazel, Employed To Serve, Hate, and Striker so all in all pretty decent!

Yes, good announcement. Saturday (bar the celtic frost set) is still super thin for me, but Friday and Sunday look good!

Terrible line-up, sorry. It's Downstock. I'm out.

It's a better lineup than last year for me. But that's not saying much. It's still weak compared to other festivals.

Bossk announced to replace Russkaja

Good choice of replacement, still an overall weak line up though.

This might be the year I finally give it a miss tbh.
