Machine Head are the secret band at Bloodstock. So can we put an end to those 'MaChIne HeAd DoNT dO FeStivALs' comments now. 

That’s them headlining BOA next year and me attending.

Aye I'll probably go if they headline! I want to do 2 fests next year and thinking Download and Bloodstock (though I've got Arctangent next week so if they have a great line up again next year then dilemma!). Looking forward to see who Bloodstock announce later.

Machine Head in fact spend 8 years (between 2015 and now) not doing festivals and playing with other bands. Now i can see them hiting all heavy festivals circuit next year (Hellfest, Graspop, Wacken) and hopefuly getting a sub spot at Download too

[gabrielomachado]

MH could do both Bloodstock and Download, they did it in 2012. After almost a decade i bet every heavy festivals are trying to get them now

[Spiral_Low]

So Decapitated are at Bloodstock next year which could mean Machine Head. But there was a rumour of Gojira before. I'd say whichever one of them isn't at Bloodstock is a sub at Download. 

Killswitch Engage headlining Bloodstock so they out of Download running. 

 

 

[gabrielomachado]

Killswitch Engage, Megadeth and Machine Head for Bloodstock i reckon

[gabrielomachado]

Amazed by Bloodstock announcement, but i was hoping to see Killswitch Engage, Knocked Loose and Gatecreeper at Download next year

[Xeph1995]

Actually really hope Limp Bizkit are gunna be there, one of the best crowds I've been in at a festival.

One band that absolutely won't be playing Bloodstock next year is Ithaca, their singer just had a massive go at Vicky (Bloodstock booker) on twitter! So hopefully we get them at Download!

What was the tweet?

[Pottsy2913]

Probably wishful thinking, but would love to see Pendulum in the tent. Could be a great alternative to Metallica (same slot Shikari played against Tool)

Criticizing her about her comments about pronoun's and declared they'd never play.

Looks like Ozzy is a dead cert with his Uk tour announcement

Download headliners usually don't play in UK around festival time 

 

i think Ozzy will not play at any festivals at all next year, too risky

A dead cert not to be be there. People are just ignoring that Ireland date he has smack bang in the middle of Download. 

[BenG92]

Sorry is this a new Ozzy announcement or what? Those dates were reschedule ages ago and I'll be surprised if they even go ahead, the guy can barely stand

[Andre91]

Ozzy won’t play those shows. He’s mangled.

Ghost are looking set to have a big chart hit after ‘Mary On A Cross’ has blown up on TikTok - it’s #58 on Spotify UK today!

Even more reason to get them in the headline slot ASAP.

Hopefully Metallica news. Don't care for much about Rammstein but can appreciate their size.

This coming from a place of knowledge or just a guess?

They can’t have Bizkit opposite BMTH. That’d be so unfair.
