So when BringthenoiseUK heard that UK metallers The Rotted had a whole heap of video interviews booked to take place during Bloodstock 2009, we did the decent thing. We booked one in too to add to their workload, not really... We couldn't go to Bloodstock and not catch up with bands like The Rotted, who keep UK metal alive and kicking!!

So when we found out Battlelore were playing Bloodstock 2009 we knew we had to interview them, Tom Raybould caught up with them to talk all things Battlelore...

'Slipknot' still provides staples for the blistering live Slipknot shows and introduced the energy, aggression and fuck you attitude that would go on to take the world by storm. The album still feels vibrant although what once seemed so groundbreaking now seems so familiar. But what makes the "special edition" special. The album is nicely packaged with expanded artwork, alternate mixes, demo versions and bonus tracks.

Bloodstock 2009 would be nothing without bands like the legendary Amon Amarth, we sent Tom Raybould along to catch up with the giant metal monster that is Amon Amarth front man Johan. This is how things went down..

So french metallers Darkness Dynamite popped over to our lovely country for a performance at this years Bloodstock Festival, so we did what any self respecting website would do. We got our metal man Tom Raybould to interview them and find out how it feels to be playing such a prestigious UK festival, this is how it went down....
