Still jet-lagged after returning from SXSW, where they made their US debut, The Defiled have today been invited to support multi-million selling US hard-rockers Godsmack at their one-off London show in June.
New Defiled drummer Needles says: "We're all stoked to be supporting Godsmack in our home town. I'm particularly chuffed as I've been listening to those guys for years and now I get to share a stage with one of my fave drummers of all time (Shannon Larkin)! Though, it could potentially be embarrassing when people realize I've pinched about 90% of my stage moves from the guy :-) It's always good to open doors to a wider fan base, so we'll be defiling as many Godsmack fans as we can!"
This will be Godsmack’s first UK show since they were last seen here supporting Metallica at Earl’s Court in 1993, and their first ever UK headline show. You can catch The Defiled at this year's Download Festival between 8th - 10th June 2012 at Donington Park. Check www.downloadfestival.co.uk for more details.
