Graspop Metal Meeting 2025


Gossard

Recommended Posts

Can't wait for the next drop. Currently I'm thinking of:

 

Thursday

 

South: IRON MAIDEN / Dream Theater / Sepultura*

 

North: POWERWOLF / Epica / Tarja + Marko Hietala*

 

Marquee: Opeth*

 

Jupiler: Motionless In White

 

Metal Dome: Perturbator

__________________

Friday

 

South: SLIPKNOT / Falling In Reverse / A Day To Remember*

 

North: THE PRODIGY* / Bullet For My Valentine* / Skillet

 

Marquee: Gloryhammer

 

Jupiler: The Ghost Inside

 

Metal Dome: Eagles of Death Metal

_________________

Saturday

 

South: KORN / Cypress Hill* / Spiritbox

 

North: BILLY IDOL* / Rise Against* / Lorna Shore

 

Marquee: Amenra

 

Jupiler: Refused*

 

Metal Dome: The Dead Daisies

________________

Sunday

 

South: VOLBEAT* / The Cult* / Savatage

 

North: TILL LINDEMANN / In Flames / Heaven Shall Burn

 

Marquee: King Diamond

 

Jupiler: Biffy Clyro*

 

Metal Dome: Bathory played by Blood, Fire, Death*

 

* not announced 

 

I think Korn will headline South despite being announced for North simply because they're headlining everywhere (except for Pinkpop). Since all of SOAD, Linkin Park, Muse, Guns N'Roses etc are ruled out for Sunday, I think it will just be Volbeat. They said that the new album is done and i think they will do a huge arena tour next summer with a few festivals in between. Not unusual from a band of their size.

Refused are headlining Sjock Festival, so you can rule them out.

I would already be surprised if The Prodigy play at Graspop but Cypress Hill... impossible to me. I agree about the fact KoRn could headline the Main Stage (aka South Stage) as they are next to Iron Maiden and SlipKnot, both announced as headliners. But GMM have always surprises - mostly bad - but some bands are higher than expected: The Ghost Inside in the logos bands when JinjerSkillet or even Epica are not is an example.

 

Thursday
South: Iron Maiden - TBA - Motionless In White.
North: Powerwolf - TBA - Epica.
Marquee: Dream Theater.
Dome: TBA.
Jupiler: Flogging Molly.

 

Friday
South: SlipKnot - TBA - A Day To Remember.
North: Falling In Reverse - Bullet For My Valentine - Jinjer.
Marquee: TBA.
Dome: Eagles Of Death Metal - Jerry Cantrell.
Jupiler: TBA.

 

Saturday
South: KoRn - TBA - Airbourne - Skillet.
North: Marilyn MansonTBA - Spiritbox - Lorna Shore.
Marquee: AmenRa.
Dome: The Hu.
Jupiler: Sex Pistols.

 

Sunday
South: Volbeat - Savatage - TBA.
North: Till Lindemann - In Flames - Heaven Shall Burn.
Marquee: King Diamond.
Dome: TBA.
Jupiler: Thrice.

Judas Priest headliner on Sunday. What a joke. 

 

They play 7 of the last 16 Graspop editions (counting this year) so almost half of them: 2008 - 2011 - 2015 - 2018 - 2022 - 2024 - 2025... Headliner in 2022, co-headliner in 2024, headliner in 2025. Put them in a nursing home please.

Disappointed about Priest, I think some of the big names around (GnR, Muse) fell off, that's why it took so long to release the Sunday headliner.

 

Since I saw them last year, I'll leave early this time, no matter who's gonna close between them or Lindemann.

Judas Priest will close the festival.

I can understand why some are disappointed with Juda Priest as head, but that line up looks extremely good

If it had to be them (for the 100th time :)), I’m glad they placed them as festival closers on Sunday. By that point we are usually exhausted so it gives us the chance to take it easy, have a last beer either watching them from afar or sit at the classic rock cafe and head back to inferno a tiny bit earlier and avoid the crowds. Same story as with Sabaton a couple of years back. 

As usual, apart from a couple of headliners, Graspop nailed it with the rest of the lineup (imo at least)! They even got Dødheimsgard as a special treat 😁.
