Download Festival announced its lineup for the upcoming year. The festival takes place in Donington Park, Leicestershire. This will be the first time that Download has three headliners in Green Day, Sleep Token, and KoRn, solidifying it again as one of the staple festivals for heavy and alternative acts around the globe. Notable nu metal acts other than KoRn are Alien Ant Farm (provided they don’t get into further fist fights with bands they’re on tour with), Kittie, Loathe, Nothing More, Poppy, and Spiritbox, with a host of other iconic bands that just don’t quite meet the standard for nu metal cred.
Tickets can be purchased on the official Download Festival website.
