Agreed. I think Killswitch have shown they can smash it, so a second stage headline slot with a new album out by then would be ideal.

Indefinitely banned on the DLF for 'spamming' which didn't happen. One of the mods having a big power trip over there so I'll just post it all here now. Thanks Hevs!

And we need to know because?

Oh yes, attention seeking.

You do seem to be involved in quite a few incidents that 'didn't happen'

Anyway, hope you are coping ok and look forward to challenging any unfounded accusations about bands you put on here.

Note to mods - I have no intention of getting involved in slanging matches with Lee, but I will call him/her out for making accusations without any evidence.

He didn’t do a thing wrong to get banned today. Not even remotely.

Members have made some disgustingly racist comments about fans of colour and misogynistic comments about women. The evidence is out there if you want to find it. 
 

I’ve also heard a slew of other stories from people who have met them in real life that backs both of those things up. All round not very nice people.

Power hungry mods. That forum was dead before I started posting and watch it die again. It's been talked about getting closed down now for a bit anyway so hope it does then they can go back to their day jobs when Download stop giving them a charity wristband for moderating their forums for free

I’ve heard this, read about it etc. 

The fact they are an absolute sh*t-show of a band too, it all spells disaster. 
 

Im amazed they’re still getting decent sized bookings at download etc.

Yeah, its put me off Gloryhammer too, i've jumped ship to Angus McSix for my ridiculous power metal nonsense fix

What counts as a misogynistic comment in 2023 anyway? Just admiring a woman's back side is misogyny nowadays. It never works the other way around either, women can admire men's bodies and get away with it. 

I personally was banned from the Download Reddit page for using the word slut. To describe women who have sex at festivals.

Inappropriate behaviour take a break and reflect .

You gave a great example yourself!

[crumbler]

I've yet to figure out why the Download forums require such heavy modding. The mods over there appear to be power-hungry dweebs who take themselves way too seriously, not to mention constantly complaining about how difficult it is. Don't bother then, you're not even getting paid!

And you wonder why you were banned?!

@NotLee I agree that the mods are being ridiculous there. Any news on who the subs are next year?

Trivium going on hiatus after this run of shows so they're likely out

Matt heavily implied they are doing 20th anniversary shows of Ascendancy in 2025. 

[NotLee]

That NNv chap having a meltdown on the DLF and 'leaking' MCR being in talks with Download (if download were still in talks with headliners now they would be in trouble). He is a troll, pay no attention. Taking stuff from Instagram accounts and running with it. As of now the headliners remain the same, still no word on the subs just yet but normally that comes with undercard and don't normally get told them as 'subs'
