THE legendary LAWNMOWER DETH and rising crossover Scousers S.S.S. will bring the thrash to Damnation Festival 2010.
While representing the finest homegrown black metal at the sixth instalment of the Leeds-based event are HECTATE ENTHRONED and FEN.
Festival Director Gavin McInally said:
Anyone who witnessed Lawnmower Deth’s fantastic set at Download last month can look forward to a second helping of good-old thrash fun at Damnation while S.S.S. are sure to live up to their moniker and provide a short, sharp, shock for the thrash fans who’ve enjoyed sets by the likes of Onslaught, Kreator and Evile over the years.
And for those who prefer their music more grim, it’s a pleasure to be able to announce Hectate Enthroned and Fen who’ll deliver their distinctive takes on black metal this year.
The latest additions mark another diverse lineup for Damnation Festival, adding to stages already bursting with the best in extreme, progressive and alternative talent such as The Dillinger Escape Plan, Anaal Nathrakh, Earthtone9 and Alcest.
Damnation Festival will take place on Saturday, November 6 at Leeds University Union.
Announced so far: The Dillinger Escape Plan, Earthtone9, Anaal Nathrakh, Lawnmower Death, Rolo Tomassi, SSS, Hecate Enthroned, Alcest, Fen and Fukpig.
