Bloodstock Festival Add Bossk to 2023 Line Up
Following the unfortunate news that ska-punkers RUSSKAJA have called it a day, and will therefore no longer be performing at BLOODSTOCK this summer, BLOODSTOCK is pleased to tell you who will be stepping into their slot...
This enigmatic and experimental band formed in 2005 but it was eleven years before their debut 'Audio Noir' saw light of day through Deathwish Inc and exploded them into post-metal's most respected echelons. Despite nods to Neurosis and Converge, this distinctive, atmospheric five-piece remain hard to pigeonhole, and continue to display their bone-crushing heaviness on latest album 'Migration', which also features a guest spot from Cult Of Luna's Johannes Persson on the single 'Menhir'. This Sophie Lancaster stage slot on Friday will be filled by none other than the mighty BOSSK!
BOSSK said,
"It's been a fair few years since we last played at Bloodstock. When we played the first time we were a little apprehensive about how we would go down at a predominantly fast metal festival, but the response was incredible. And even better the next time. To play in 2023 is going to be incredible, and to see the festival continue to grow is a great thing for the UK music scene. Thank you to everyone involved for having us back, we can't wait. Hail the riff.
