If you saw this festival line up who would you go and see…
No one, those names are a piss take.....right?
On a more serious note I guess most folk wouldn't like my choice of electron ic/techno
I can tell from the fonts that the answer is none of them.
There are some bands at the bottom of the Thursday and Friday lineup columns that are so ROCK that they've used black fonts on a black background. But if you zoom right in you'll notice the shade of black is slightly different to the background shade.
That's who I'd go see.
Ferocious Dog are ace. East Midlands finest folk punk
Ferocious dog for the win. I saw them at northern kin and they were amazing and from that performance I saw their acoustic set the following week. I’ve got tickets to see them in November they are that good. Don’t forget to buy your t shirt once you’ve seen them.
Discharge, at least they can carry on tune.
This tells me that, though they no doubt consider themselves radical, they are all conformists.
Yay! Let’s pile on the assumptions. Got any more?
These types of comments always remind me of a Bad Religion lyric.
We’ve got spite and dedication as a vehement brew.
The world hates us, well we hate them too
But you’re exempted, of course, if you come join us.
As for the OP I’d go if I had some sort of device that could stop the vocals and guitars from reaching my ears and just leave the bottom end of bass and drums.
Discharge.
Only one I've heard of and I love a bit of Discharge.
Can't imagine they're as good and raw as they used to be though.
I can picture the crowd now....25000 metallers all boiling to death in 30 Deg temps wearing leather jackets, jeans and hi tech hi tops......and I would know as I was once a brethren and stood at MK bowl in full regalia under 30 Deg sun watching metalica...they had fire hoses to cool the crowd.
Over in Germany a mate asked if I wanted to go the "Summer Breeze" festival. I was up for it, thinking it was some kind of reggae type thing. It's only when I looked at the line up and realised the name was kinda ironic and it was a death metal festival.
I declined the offer.
Who's billed below Inhuman Nature? I can't even read that (alright grandad, etc.)
From that covers festival, Pearl Scam, Beast Decoys and Liqueur made me chuckle
Also enjoyed Iffy Clyro and Tool Shed!!
I've only heard of one band/artist. And they are nekrogoblikon. So I'd go see them on Thursday. Probably followed by Nanowar of steel... Sounds interesting.
Friday would be taken up by eyehategod, discharge and Party Cannon 😉
Saturday I'd probably go to see the symbol (out of curiosity) and Cupar... Maybe a they're Fifers.?
Pupil slicers sound good.... Disgruntled teachers or optometrists?
Sunday... If I'm still standing I'd be looking to chill out so I'd give Ill Nino a go (for the metal meteorological reference) and ORBITCULTURE as Gurgeh recommended them over a game of Azad).
I'd finish off the long weekend with a bit of Guilt Trip.
I'd go to some of the bands with incomprehensible tumbleweed logos, so that when people say "who did you see" I can say "well how would I know"
