In fairness, I don't really recall ever noticing you talking about music in the past, and I have a strong suspicion Iron Maiden (amongst a few other big name acts) may find their way into this line-up, but would you really brave France for it? That place is full of foreigners. | AT THE GATES, BORN FROM PAIN, CARCASS, MESHUGGAH, TESTAMENT all groups love to see again, fuck hope Iron Maiden arent headlining.
Hellfest is more to me and my mates music taste bit more extreme than download has been the last two years.
Will see who are headlining though. As if Metallica do headline download could swing it a little but wait and see.
Could do both as was considered last year. | |

I'd love it if KISS decided against playing because they wouldn't want to risk getting bottled like MCR did last year. Teach the mad Johnny Devil Horns a thing or two about not being arseholes.

Scab Kiss are confirmed.
Edit: Not confirmed yet, whoops. Looking very likely though. Supposedly headlining Friday. I don't think they're big enough over here (or anywhere, really) to be headlining.

I know it's not really anything to do with Download, but the updated Hellfest line-up is thus:
7 SECONDS

ANATHEMA
MESHUGGAH
ANAAL NATHRAKH
MINISTRY
ANGRA
MUNICIPAL WASTE
ARKHON INFAUSTUS
MY DYING BRIDE
AT THE GATES
NECROPHAGIST
AVA INFERI
NOFX
BARONESS
OBITUARY
BELPHEGOR
OPETH
BENIGHTED
ORIGIN
BORN FROM PAIN
PARADISE LOST
CARCASS
PRIMORDIAL
COALESCE (exclusive date in Europe)
ROTTEN SOUND
COMEBACK KID
SATYRICON
CULT OF LUNA
SEPTIC FLESH
THE DILLINGER ESCAPE PLAN
SHINING
DIMMU BORGIR
SICK OF IT ALL
DYING FETUS
SODOM
ELUVEITIE
SONATA ARCTICA
EVILE

Hellfest's only a week later than Download, so it's a fair assumption that any of the name bands may be making a Donnington appearance too, ie. Meshuggah, Dillinger Escape Plan, Ministry, Job For A Cowboy, NoFX, Municipal Waste, Opeth, In Flames, etc.

Kiss and Judas Priest and said to be strong rumours for Friday. I just doubt very much that Lost Prophets would headline one of the days, don't see it happening.
The announcements of the bands have also been put back a week.
If anyone has a STudent acount with the Royal Bank of Scotland, you can get 25% off your ticket, purchasing up to six tickets.
