LOL a7x what a shite booking. As much as I love Ozzy with Sabbath. Weak headliners so far.

Kiddie metal. Their music is very bland and generic.

Well, if kiddie metal sells out multiple arena tours, tops the UK albums chart and headlines the biggest rock festival in the UK (twice) they’re doing alright.

You like Alestorm, don’t you...

Why do people continually bring up social media shitstorms btw? They could announce the greatest headline trio in history and there'd be a social media shitstorm. It means nothing.

Kiddie metal is quite literally the most likely metal to do what you're listing there.

I shouldn't bite but this is so daft I can only think you haven't listened to them properly. While they are not my favourite band your description is way off by any reasonable standards. Just look at their song lengths and you'll see very little less than 5 minutes. Like him or not nobody sounds like M Shadows. The guitar work, especially the solos, is not the sort of stuff your average band is pumping out. If a band with songs as diverse as Seize The Day, A Little Piece Of Heaven, Buried Alive, God Damn, Sidewinder and This Means War in their catalogue are generic then I don't understand the definition.

Band's 20 years old too. This 51 year old fucking loves them. Kiddiemetallolz.

Yeah this 39 year old thinks they're pretty decent too! Looking forward to watching them!

Aye, the kiddie metal comment was odd. But so was Andre's response to it.

Best lyric? You've clearly not heard that recent one about a monkey climbing out of hell? Top notch lyrics on that bad boy!

you'd have thought they'd have run out of hell-beasts after 40 years.

<hangs head in shame>

</dies of shame>

I’m not sure what I was going for there. 

I should have just laughed at them being called kiddie metal

Final DL Paris headliner :/ Not sure he deserves to be a headliner?

Plenty of people are bigger on the mainland than they are here. Is he one of them?

Yeah he is and for good reason hes really good. Industrial is a good genre. The mainland seem to know their music one of the reasons mainland gets such better line ups. Hell Fest has had the best line up of any "big" metal festival in years.

Most mainland lineups aren't that much better tbh. Hellfest is an exception.

Marilyn Manson is abysmal live and has been for a long time. 

I can see him subbing A7X over here.
