By way of a late Valentines Day gift, BLOODSTOCK is thrilled
to announce 3 more bands for 2017’s event!
ARCH ENEMY will be joining us as Sunday’s special
guests. Get a taste of their Swedish melodeath with the live video for
‘War Eternal’, shot at Wacken 2016 and check out what’s in store this August - https://youtu.be/p5etfIwlRbg.
The band, now fronted by Alissa White-Gluz, are set to
release a new live DVD/Blu-Ray of their full Wacken set titled ‘As The Stages
Burn!’ on 31st March via Century Media. ARCH ENEMY guitarist Michael
Amott tells us "We're very much looking forward to being a part of this
year's edition of BLOODSTOCK, which actually takes place very close to where my
father was born. We'll be bringing our 'pure fucking metal' attack
home... Hail to England!" Stay clued up on all things ARCH ENEMY at www.facebook.com/archenemyoffi

Salt Lake City deathcore mob CHELSEA GRIN also land an early
main stage slot on Friday. The band released their fourth studio album, ‘Self
Inflicted’ via new label home Rise Records last summer and unveiled a video for
‘Broken Bonds’ - https://youtu.be/awa50gXnOdw.
Frontman Alex Koehler tells us “We are looking forward to heading back overseas
this summer to be part of Bloodstock 2017. When we were offered the show
and we saw the lineup we were extremely excited. We’ve seen tons of
videos from BLOODSTOCK in the past and cannot wait to be there.” Get all the
latest on CHELSEA GRIN over at www.facebook.com/ChelseaGrinMe

Lastly, prog metallers ONI join the ranks on the Sophie
stage on Saturday. Signed to Metal Blade, these Canadians recently
unveiled a creepy video for ‘The Only Cure’ from debut album ‘Ironshore’,
featuring guest vocals from Lamb of God’s Randy Blythe. Check it out at: https://youtu.be/ERFBmOtElKU.
Frontman Jake Oni says “In the past year, we’ve had the pleasure of playing the
UK a few times, but being a part Bloodstock 2017 is a huge honour. We are
not only excited to show this festival what we’ve got, but also to see some of
the masters that are playing!!! You don't want to miss this!” ONI warm
up for their BLOODSTOCK debut by traversing Europe next month with Children of
Bodom.
