SATYRICON CONFIRMED FOR BLOODSTOCK 2009
Satyricon-Aug-2008-1.jpg


The Bloodstock team are pleased to announce that Norwegian Black Metal Band ‘Satyricon’ have been added to the bill for 2009.
Satyricon was formed in 1990 by Czral (Carl-Michael Eide) and Wargod. Haavard (Ulver) soon joined them. Satyr took over lead vocals in 1991.

The band credits their first album, Dark Medieval Times, with starting a black metal subgenre that they dubbed "medieval metal". The album showed off the fascination Satyricon had with the Middle Ages, along with raw black metal blastbeats produced by Frost, mixed with acoustic guitar and flute. On their next album, The Shadowthrone, this medieval spirit was continued. Satyricon’s third album, Nemesis Divina, contains Norwegian black metal influenced by medieval metal and was released in 1996. Rebel Extravaganza, Satyricon’s fourth album, was released in 1999. It contained more industrial metal influences then the previous albums.

Regarding one of their latest albums, Volcano, frontman Satyr stated in a press release / biography on their homepage that "the music is rock based but more extreme; it is black metal pushing the boundaries that began with bands like Venom and Bathory, reinventing ourselves based on a foundation of rock oriented black metal is our philosophy." It resulted in a total of 4 Awards for Volcano being, the Norwegian Grammy for "Best Metal Album", an Alarm award for "Fuel For Hatred" in the category for "Song of the Year", as well as The Alarm Award for

AMON AMARTH CONFIRMED FOR BLOODSTOCK OPEN AIR 2009 !

The Bloodstock team are pleased to announce that Viking metallers AMON AMARTH have been added to the bill for BOA 2009.

Amon Amarth were formed in Stockholm in 1992, issuing several demos during the next few years which eventually led to a deal with Pulverised Records who released the mini-album Sorrow Throughout the Nine Worlds in 1996. Metal Blade were suitably impressed with the band’s epic death metal and promptly signed them on a long term contract. Their first full-length album Once Sent From The Golden Hall appeared in 1998 and saw the band embark on an album-tour-album cycle which laid the foundations for a wider international profile. Both The Avenger (1999) and The Crusher (2001) built on the success of Once Sent From The Golden Hall, with relentless touring taking the band’s increasingly impressive live show to bigger and bigger audiences.

2002’s Versus The World and 2004’s Fate Of Norns saw the band break through to the next level, extensive worldwide touring, a triumphant show at Wacken ’04 and a legendary performance at Bloodstock indoor in 2005 capping a highly successful period. Following Fate Of Norns was never going to be easy, but 2006’s With Oden On Our Side did just that with consummate ease. Clearly the band’s most carefully crafted album to date, it saw them tour worldwide yet again and begin to win support from the wider metal community. Their current album Twilight Of The Thunder God has continued their global rise, charted impressively all over the world and seen them raid UK shores once more as part of the recent Unholy Alliance tour. Expect tattered banners and bloody flags when they return to Bloodstock…

BLOODSTOCK’S THIRD STAGE IS RENAMED ‘THE SOPHIE LANCASTER STAGE’
STAMP - OUT - PREJUDICE - HATRED + - INTOLERANCE - EVERYWHERE
The Bloodstock Team are very proud to announce their 3rd Stage (previously known as the Lava Stage) will be renamed this year ‘The Sophie Lancaster Stage’.

They felt this would be a fitting tribute to a young girl who was brutally attacked along with her boyfriend in 2007 while walking through her local park in Bacup, Lancashire. Sophie and her boyfriend were singled out not for anything they had said or done, but because they looked and dressed differently. Unfortunately Sophie later died in hospital following the injuries from this vicious and unprovoked attack.

Bloodstock organiser Paul Gregory said “It is our hope that renaming the stage will help to keep Sophie’s memory alive and raise awareness to our society that this kind of brutal behaviour will not be tolerated”.

Sophie’s family have set up THE SOPHIE LANCASTER FOUNDATION. Through the Foundation they hope to provide training to professionals in order to raise awareness of the prejudice and violence faced by people from alternative subcultures. The foundation will develop and deliver workshops tackling the issues and challenging pre-conceptions. They will work towards offering advice and information to whoever may need it. This foundation will continue the campaigning in the same dignified manner adhered to since the attack on Sophie and her boyfriend Rob though the S.O.P.H.I.E. Campaign.

Sophie's brother, Adam Lancaster said “What happened horrified more people then we could ever know, not just the attack but the pointlessness of it all. We thank you for your thoughts and wishes and look forward to being involved with Bloodstock in 2009."

Two acts that will perform on the stage include female fronted Goth / Metal band ‘Pythia’ who were brought together by a love of gothic literature and Metal. PYTHIA are a group of classical and metal inspired musicians who believe that music is a lifestyle that should be lived only by the brave and true of heart. Bloodstock also welcome back crowd favourites ‘BEHOLDER’, who on their latest release ‘Unleash The Hell’, have written and recorded a track dedicated to the memory of Sophie entitled – ‘You’ll Never Take Us Down’. With BEHOLDER’S wild antics, powerful material and their strong support of the Sophie Campaign, it promises to be a fitting tribute.
