      BEST OF BRITISH:

      Experimental doom titans ESOTERIC and globe-trotting metal veterans PANIC CELL will help fly the UK flag at this year’s Damnation Festival.

      They’ll be joined by Scottish old-school death metallers BONESAW, Brighton's progressive rockers THE MIRE and the recent winners of the Rock Sound and Terrorizer stage competitions; The Construct, Colonel Blast and Diascorium.

      The new additions join an eclectic three-stage bill in Leeds University Union, on Saturday, November 6, which includes The Dillinger Escape Plan, Paradise Lost, Anaal Nathrakh, Alcest, Lawnmower Deth and Rolo Tomassi.

      Festival Director Gavin McInally said: “The booking of Esoteric has been a long time coming and it’s a pleasure to finally have the highly respected doom outfit at Damnation while a Jager drenched evening with Panic Cell is a highlight of any festival. It's great to have those boys back in the UK after playing with the likes of Metallica, Alice Cooper and Slayer earlier this year.

      “Despite hailing from the dizzy heights of Aberdeen, Bonesaw have been sending shock waves through the UK’s extreme metal scene so it’s only right they bring their old-school death metal noise to our Terrorizer Stage while The Mire are expected to set the progressive metal bar high with their Rock Sound Stage outing."

      Meanwhile, the submissions for the final opening slot competition on the Jagermeister Stage are now open.
      Fans can make suggestions via the official forums, Myspace, Facebook or Twitter and a shortlist will be announced on Monday, September 20, before a seven day voting frenzy takes place to decide a winner.

      Announced so far: The Dillinger Escape Plan, Paradise Lost, Earthtone9, Anaal Nathrakh, Lawnmower Deth, Rolo Tomassi, Panic Cell, Alcest, The Ocean, Esoteric, SSS, Hecate Enthroned, Fen, Maybeshewill, October File, Bonesaw, Fukpig, The Mire, Colonel Blast, The Construct and Diascorium.

      Tickets are priced £27 and are available from See Tickets: www.seetickets.com, Ticketline: www.ticketline.co.uk and Leeds Tickets: www.leedstickets.com

    • Surprised to see Panic Cell up on the bill. Saw them years ago supporting Alabama Thunderpussy and thought they were cack.

      HARDCORE punk legends DISCHARGE and UK thrash titans SABBAT are the latest additions to the sixth chapter of Damnation Festival.

      The crust veterans will headline the Terrorizer Stage while Sabbat will perform on the Jagermeister Stage.

      The Dillinger Escape Plan and Paradise Lost will now co-headline the downsized event, which takes place on Saturday, November 6, in Leeds University Union.

      Festival Director Gavin McInally said: "It's no secret we've had a tough year of it so being able to confirm two top acts like Discharge and Sabbat is a real pleasure.

      "Aside from the Jagermeister Stage competition and perhaps another smaller band on the Terrorizer Stage, the bill is pretty much complete for this year and despite the lack of an exclusive headliner we're delighted to once again put together a three stage line-up we're immensely proud of.

      "Rare showings from the likes Lawnmower Deth, Fukpig, the return of Earthtone9, exclusive performances by Alcest, Anaal Nathrakh as well as the aforementioned talent of DEP, Paradise Lost, Sabbat and Discharge - 2010 is going to be a blinder."

      Announced for Damnation Festival 2010: The Dillinger Escape Plan, Paradise Lost, Discharge, Earthtone9, Sabbat, Anaal Nathrakh, Lawnmower Deth, Rolo Tomassi, Panic Cell, Alcest, The Ocean, Esoteric, SSS, Hecate Enthroned, Fen, Maybeshewill, October File, Bonesaw, Fukpig, The Mire, Colonel Blast, The Construct and Diascorium.
