The UK’s fast-rising, smokin’ hot, true metal festival, Bloodstock Open Air has announced three new additions to the 2013 bill. These exclusive UK festival appearances rack up alongside the previously announced special guests, Anthrax.
German metal gods, Accept are excited to bring their classic sound to Bloodstock’s hallowed turf. Accept’s founder/guitarist, Wolf Hoffmann, is looking forward to his band’s return to our shores, commenting: "Hey Dudes & Dudettes! It was the UK and Judas Priest who made it possible for Accept, overnight, to be put on the map!! We believe that without our British fans, the career of Accept would have taken a different turn. We are honoured and very grateful to be invited to play Bloodstock 2013 - our only show in the UK! Let's rock together... See ya there!" Accept’s Andy Sneap-produced ‘Stalingrad’ album hit stores in April; wrap your ears around the title track below.
Fozzy’s frontman, WWE legend Chris Jericho, is similarly enthused. When asked about Fozzy’s appearance at Bloodstock, he told us: "Next summer, it’s going to be such an honour for Fozzy to be a part of the biggest growing festival in the entire UK! I've been following the evolution of Bloodstock for years now, and this fest reminds me a lot of Fozzy...getting bigger every year, and poised to take over the world! I promise that this will be the biggest Fozzy show EVER and we can't wait to tear your f**king heads off, England!!!!" Meanwhile, Fozzy released their ‘Sin & Bones’ album through Century Media in August. Check out an album sampler at the following link, including the track ‘Sandpaper,’ which features a guest appearance from Avenged Sevenfold frontman, M. Shadows:
