I wondered if Don Broco were still okay to go 4th down but JEW are 3rd down and Broco have done bigger tours then them. I don't know what would be ruling Deftones out from being added, i did think given they aren't reguslrs it was too soon. I presume if Weezer can announced Peace Hall same day which I actually think is risky then Deftones can. Spritbox 3rd down ST day and MM 3rd down. Bullet day. I think we’ve got these to come: Apex sub: Falling In Reverse Opus sub: Til Lindemann Avalanche headliners: Bury Tomorrow, letlive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spiral_Low Posted yesterday at 07:30 AM Report Share Posted yesterday at 07:30 AM (edited) That's gonna be a no from me. I think the headliners are ok, I don't like Sleep Token but Korn are great and Green Day are an obvious choice. But I think the undercard is pretty weak in terms of what I like. Most of the bands I'd want to see I've either seen or have/had the chance to see on their own tours so with the expense Download costs these days it's not worth it.

Frankly Mr Shankly Posted yesterday at 08:32 AM Report Share Posted yesterday at 08:32 AM Took some time to digest the lineup before commenting, there’s enough to tempt me, but not enough to wow me. Some odd choices too, Steel Panther and the Darkness look out of place. As most have said I suspect Falling in Reverse will be the missing sub. It’s a shame Bad Omens aren’t back, but suspect they may support Linkin Park at Wembley then try a huge arena run in autumn/winter 25. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r55N Posted yesterday at 08:58 AM Report Share Posted yesterday at 08:58 AM Looking at the line up in the morning. Not bad actually. It's one of the best from what's currently available for 2025. Just few additions like Knocked Loose, Refused and it would be a great line up. Unfortunately also 0 surprises:/ So far the closest thing is Rock am Ring (similar, even bit better for me). Overall I like the new DW direction. New bands, no more Maiden, Sabbath, Cooper and so on. This is why things like Steel Panther and the Darkness look out of place, and that's a good thing. I think it's too soon for Sleep Token to headline this fest. Remember it was just last year that BMTH headlined it for the first time. This is just to please the new audience they try to appeal to. I would take Deftones instead every day of the week. Anyway, Solid line up, in line with current trends, and yes, expensive. and the mud... I have tix for Hellfest and will wait for their line-up before thinking about this one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would get a Darkness and Ash ticket somehow instead and save a pot. Not sure Within Temptation have done anything to get the bump up although you could argue they were co-headliners last time maybe.... 25 minutes ago, Frankly Mr Shankly said: Took some time to digest the lineup before commenting, there’s enough to tempt me, but not enough to wow me.

Bluewolf Posted yesterday at 09:02 AM Report Share Posted yesterday at 09:02 AM I'm not overwhelmed by the line-up but there is enough to keep me happy over the weekend. As we can all agree it's the overall experience that makes it worth going. Just a small point. Was Korn bumped up because MCR pulled out? I'm sure i read that somewhere but not sure if it's legit or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

northernangel Posted yesterday at 09:37 AM Report Share Posted yesterday at 09:37 AM Just now, Jrose said: Are we certain pistols are second stage? Yes unfortunately as it was on the locations split that's been taken down. I can't see it being wrong. So they ate clashing with Weezer or another day. Ideally second Friday clashing with Korn making it a bullet into korn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're gonna have to strike whilst the iron is hot if they don't have the old guard to fall back on. Absolutely true from the Sleep Token perspective. Seen then a couple of times, very-very solid, huge in UK and US. They need this, yes! Download does not though. This move (to me) is just to cement the direction they're on. Imagine this forum next year same time and generally the expectations from DW from now on with this booking. Instead of one legacy act, we'll be expecting one fresh, emerging act. Anyway, it's better this way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bixer Posted yesterday at 09:42 AM Report Share Posted yesterday at 09:42 AM I for one am delighted that Download seems to have shifted to catering more towards the mid 2000's crowd and has essentially become what Reading/Leeds was 15 years ago. With that initial leak yesterday I was worried that the Sex Pistols were one of the main stage headliners, so I'm equally as delighted to see that they're not!

That could be headliner or sub because the poster puts the first 4 together with the same size logo so at least 1 of that 4 is a sub. Other than that we’re probably only missing 3 or 4 more bands from that stage, likely small acts. Avalanche is missing 2 headliners and about 10 acts in total. Dogtooth seems to have all 3 headliners and had 32 acts in total so that stage seems complete. Maybe they squeeze 1 more per day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
