Have InFlames pulled out? I can't see them on the line up poster...

[Chavmeisterdeluxe]

Underneath Trivium

Edit: oh actually looking at the clear poster that's The Pretty Reckless so yeah I guess they have.

Errrrm no they're not, not on the official Download website...

[Chavmeisterdeluxe]

I was going by the one in Kerrang, they're on that so I guess its a very recent pull out.

[GuitarManDan15]

Bring Me The Horizon have been announced for the 12th Download Festival as a European Festival exclusive.

I presume that is a mistake as they are playing Wacken, hurricane and nova among others

[Dead throne]

Really wish I was going now

Love Andy's reasoning on Trivium being second stage headliners now, we listened to the fans and said we will put them outside instead of in the tent.

Nothing to do with Lamb of God pulling their slot.

And then In flames pull too, So instead of

Lamb of God

In Flames

we have

Trivium

The Pretty Reckless

Jesus, what a step down. Im absolutely GUTTED about In Flames, especially as they haven't even announced it, but forums mods have said they've been told they've pulled, Andy hasn't even mentioned it.

[Frankly Mr Shankly]

I was tempted to get a day ticket for In Flames & the Dillinger Escape Plan, think I'll probably pass now.

[Smithster]

Shame to hear about In Flames, would of been a pretty decent end to the festival them and Trivium. The Pretty Recklass are woeful too so kinda ending with a whimper now, especially given Trivium have been bumped up cause DL can't successfully book big bands anymore lol. Still I don't mind Trivium and the tent would of been rammed. I think the overall line up is fairly weak and shallow but it really is just an off year I guess. Hopefully ticket sales drop and the site is much quieter - was too rammed in recent years!

Few nasty clashes presenting themselves too (Annoying off a fairly weak lineup lol), but Download tends to add new bands kinda random so can't be sure they're final yet. Really hope blessthefall get bumped down a few to get them out the way of BMTH / KSE. Memphis May Fire could do with moving down too...

Happy with BMTH and Within Temptation though, so at least the last few big slots worked out for me.

[jammy2211]

Didn't see Monuments tucked away on the 4th Sunday there, awesome! Makes Sunday better for sure.

Are Radkey bigger than Arcane Roots? They seem to playing smaller venues on their UK tour.

Both good bands tho

linkin parks new song is a bit shit http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hxLhvyfZbAM

[dentalplan]

The pitch has been changed or something by/for Youtube. No way any band would release that, not even Linkin Park.
