Nergal proclaimed, "We couldn't do the show for obvious reasons last time, I was in a deep shithole with my sickness, but I really felt obliged to come back and do Bloodstock as soon as possible. We are really fortunate that they invited us back, we couldn't turn it down, and this is the perfect opportunity to make this up to the people that missed us last time. For us it's a great pleasure to come back to the UK after two years, and I can promise we will bring full production - lights, pyro - it's gonna be awesome and we can't wait. This is not only the first time we headline a festival, but also our first open air appearance in the UK, so it's gonna be special!"
"Bringing Behemoth back to Bloodstock in 2012 was our mission, they have been one of the MOST requested bands we have ever been asked for!" states festival booker Vicky Gregory. "We know the fans will give them one hell of a reception. The show is their full production and what better place for them to return than as headliners for the Friday night."
They join a line-up that includes the previously confirmed Alice Cooper, Sanctuary, The Black Dahlia Murder, Grand Magus, Dimmu Borgir, Hatebreed, Corrosion Of Conformity, Anaal Nathrakh, Watain, Paradise Lost, Anvil, Orange Goblin, and Doomed.
