August 13, 2008, 16 years ago
Legendary metallers BENEDICTION and ONSLAUGHT are the latest bands confirmed for the 2008 edition of the UK's Damnation Festival, scheduled to take place in Lees, UK on Saturday, November 22nd at the University Of Leeds.
Damnation Festival 2008 line-up so far: CARCASS, PITCHSHIFTER, NAPALM DEATH, SIGH, THE BERZERKER, TAINT, DESECRATION, RAMESSES, LATITUDES, MY DYING BRIDE, BENEDICTION, ONSLAUGHT.
Festival director Gavin McInally said: "With more tickets sold for this year's Damnation Festival in the first month than we managed in the whole of last year it was a simple choice; lock out the fans, or take the plunge and add the huge 2,000 capacity Refectory. Damnation Festival will now host three stages rammed with talent and we're delighted to welcome Rock Sound on board as our newest partners - they've been at the forefront of breaking bands for over a decade, and we pride ourselves on doing the same! We promised to host the UK's finest bill of metal in 2008 and with the addition of legendary UK acts like Onslaught and Benediction, we're definitely one step closer. ??Tickets are flying out the door at only £29 each, so make sure you get a brief whatever it takes!"
As previously reported, following a sell out of the first batch of tickets, the remainder of tickets for Damnation Festival are now on sale, available from www.leedstickets.com, www.leedstickets.com
