With a line up already boasting some of the top names in metal, including CHILDREN OF BODOM, FEAR FACTORY, BEHEMOTH, and DEVIN TOWNSEND, the latest addition to the BLOODSTOCK OPEN AIR 2010 line up further solidifies an already amazing cast. Finnish melodic metal masters SONATA ARCTICA will be making their only UK festival appearance of 2010 at this year’s 10th Anniversary of BLOODSTOCK. Says keyboardist Henrik “Henkka” Klingenberg:

“Bloodstock is one of the best festivals we've played at in Britain. I can't wait to hit the stage once again as well as check out some of the other bands on this years killer line-up”

Having consistently topped the charts in their homeland throughout their career, last year’s “Days Of Grays” album was rapturously received by the UK, seeing the band shake off their cult status in this country and selling out London’s Islington Academy, causing the UK Rock press to take notice. With powerful and perfectly executed live shows, their set at this year’s BLOODSTOCK will be a treat for any true fan of metal, and one we look forward to immensely.

LOOK OUT FOR A SPECIAL HEADLINER ANNOUNCEMENT ON FEB 1ST 2010!!!

The BLOODSTOCK OPEN AIR METAL FESTIVAL 2010 will take place at Catton Hall, Derbyshire from 13th – 15th August.

With CHILDREN OF BODOM and FEAR FACTORY’s co-headline slot announced at the end of last year, BLOODSTOCK OPEN AIR 2010 continues to impress with the addition of GOJIRA to the line up. The French Metal monsters will be making their ONLY UK APPEARANCE OF 2010 at Catton Hall this summer. Having ended last year with a mammoth tour of the USA with Metallica and Lamb Of God, the band previously announced that 2010 would see the band take a time off, but have decided to make an exception to be part of this year’s very special 10th anniversary event. With a reputation for fiercely heavy and perfectly executed live shows, GOJIRA’s set promises to be one of the festival highlights, and your only chance to catch the band on these shores this year.

"We're really looking forward to playing the mighty Bloodstock Festival for the first time! It's a great lineup and we cannot wait to kick your ass, England! - Joe Duplantier, Frontman
