Just over two months since the highly successful 10th anniversary of BLOODSTOCK, the UK’s only true open air metal festival has announced another name to its 2011 line up. Floridian death metal legends MORBID ANGEL will be coming to Catton Hall for the prestigious Sunday Special Guest slot, which they fill with their only UK performance of 2011.
Throughout history, only a handful of artists have been able to rise to a truly iconic level within any given genre. MORBID ANGEL are among those select few. Shattering the boundaries of creativity and imagination while evolving with each groundbreaking release throughout their historic career, the band stands alone as a true icon in extreme music, serving as source of countless inspiration to the multitude of fans.
With the classic core trio of David Vincent, Trey Azagthoth and Pete Sandoval – who are currently preparing a new album for Season Of Mist – MORBID ANGEL are a truly magical musical machine, and this exclusive appearance alongside IMMORTAL, RHAPSODY OF FIRE and TRIPTYKON is one BLOODSTOCK OPEN AIR can be very proud of.
Early bird tickets are on sale now at the price of just £90 up to 15th December 2010 and are available from www.bloodstock.uk.com

Cheese is possibly the single greatest food (if one excludes bacon). Sometimes I write songs about cheese... but not often
