I agree there's more of an argument against Korn headlining than Sleep Token    Not saying they deserve to headline but saying they haven't got more popular just isn't true 

It’s not really a debate though is it…   Since they last played Sleep Token have a sold out tour of 115k tickets. Korn sold 36k tickets. Could Korn have done more? Possibly. Could Korn shift 115k? I highly doubt it.    I’m not knocking Korn, I’d watch them over Sleep Token any day of the week. But if any of the 3 potential headliners deserves to be questioned it’s Korn, not Sleep Token. Korn would not look out of place subbing again, Sleep Token would. 

You've obviously been living under a rock if you think Korn haven't got more popular recently    Nu-Metal has had a recent surge in popularity which is why bands like Limp Bizkit and Deftones also have a lot of hype around them    Obviously the real indicator of who deserves to headline is ticket sales so that is up for debate but saying they haven't got more popular is just plain wrong 

How come they’ve never headlined Download before then? And what, in your opinion have they done since 2022 to warrant being bumped up? 

When I say third, I'm talking Rodrigo, Stevie + one more, only going off what I've had thus far.   To my knowledge Fender is just based on what's been announced for him so far, unless I've missed some other info?
