PlanetMosh Keeping it Metal
English stoner rock giants ORANGE GOBLIN are the latest name to be added to the stunning 10th anniversary Damnation Festival bill.
They’ll be joined by black metal quartet WINTERFYLLETH and post-punk outfit OCTOBER FILE, with both bands airing material from their new albums at Leeds University Union on Saturday, November 1.
The trio of new additions bolster an impressively eclectic line-up which already boasts Bolt Thrower’s only UK appearance, a Cannibal Corpse headline set and St Vitus performing ‘Born Too Late’ in full.
Orange Goblin said: “Over the last few years, Damnation has cemented itself into one of the UK’s leading metal festivals, so it is a great honour to be asked back to play for a second time. “It is already a great line up of bands, and we can’t wait to be part of it.”
Winterfylleth added: “We are proud to announce we will be playing Damnation Festival once again in 2014. “The response we had in 2012 was mind blowing and we hope to see you all there once again. “Damnation is a festival we always attend as fans regardless of playing and a must for all serious metal fans. “We have a new album out a few weeks before the festival, so will be playing some exclusive new material for the first time on the day.”
And October File said: “We are over the moon to be playing what is becoming one of the most important and special events in the UK. “Damnation has worked hard to forge a name that is a must for fans and underground talent.”
The line-up for Damnation Festival so far includes: Bolt Thrower, Cannibal Corpse, Saint Vitus, Raging Speedhorn, Orange Goblin, Anaal Nathrakh, Ahab, Revocation, Solstafir, Winterfylleth, H A R K, October File, Bast, Atlantis and Corrupt Moral Altar, with many more bands to be announced across four stages.
