Killswitch Engage, NoFX, Shinedown and more added to Download line up
It’s been a couple of weeks since our last announcement, and with the sun in the sky (just about) and less than 4 months until Download 2012, we decided to go and add a handful more bands to the line up. We’re nice like that, see.
First up, Killswith Engage are coming back to Download in 2012, having stepped in at the last minute to play the festival in 2010.
With Jesse Leach back as the band’s lead singer, we can’t wait to welcome the band back to Donington in June.
Also on the bill are NOFX, one of the most dedicated and prolific touring bands on the live circuit, and yet another incredible addition to the Download 2012 bill.
Black Veil Brides will be retuning in 2012, having blown us away with a phenomenal set last year. The band continue to gain in popularity, and their performance this year is promising to be even more of a spectacle than last time.
Finish symphonic metallers Nightwish have been confirmed, and will be playing tracks from their awesome 14-year-long career, including songs from their latest record Imaginaerum.
Oh yeah, and the ferocious Shinedown will also be ripping it at Donington in 2012 too, blasting out tracks from their new album Amaryllis as well as a bunch of their classics as well.
What do you think of all that, then? Be sure to jump on to our Forum, Facebook and Twitter to let us know what you think about the latest additions.
