Soundwave 2016

[Chicken_Hunter]

Bands announced so far:

Bullet for my valenine
Dead letter circus
Refused
Failure
Northlane

There will be a few more bands announced over the coming weeks with the first big announcement of 22 bands + headliner not due for 2 weeks or so.

Although I have seen them both before Northlane and Bullet will be on my to see list.

 

[LESStar58]

Refused. Nice.

 

[elyod138]

Failure are a must see, hope they do side shows.

 

[simmo1]

inb4 'worst line up ever'

 

[AusKnightRKO]

Isn't Gunners getting back together for this?

 

[Gina Minehart]

Black Sabbath ftw

 

[Chicken_Hunter]

Guns and roses are still a while off actually sorting their shit out and playing shows even though they have settled their differences.

Black sabbath have been ruled out.

My guess for headline will be Iron Maiden

Haha! Selwyn! Whatever happened to the bloke who claims to be responsible for Australian hip hop and "rnb".

god I hope not, they played about 4 or 5 years back and were boring

Well AJ has just ruled out all headliners who have headlined the show before

Rumors are that its down to 2 bands.

Disturbed and Tool


I love tool, they are one of my bucket list bands. But disturbed wouldn't disappoint

 

[Chicken_Hunter]

Bring Me The Horizon has been added.

I wish i was as easily pleased as you are. I like Bullet(well their first few albums) but they are at SW every second year.

I don't get the tool love from most. It just seems simple, repetitive and boring but i know i'm in the minority so not having a go.

Surely Disturbed despite their hiatus aren't big enough to be headliner? They aren't up their with previous headliners Metallica, SOAD, Slipknot or even Greenday.

But they seem the obvious choices as GNR and RATM have been ruled out.

 

[Chicken_Hunter]

Disturbed are pretty big, but I dont know if they are big enough to headline. They do have about 11 million facebook likes so would be the smallest name headliner in a long time. Iron Maiden has about 13million.

Like them or not, BFMV and BMTH are both pretty massive bands these days and I dare say both will be on the main stage this year.

I am not sure where the Tool headline rumour came from but they arent that big.

I'd imagine that at least half of Maidens fan base wouldn't have facebook

 

[Twizzle]

Based on rumours from the Soundwave website, although Maynard would be in 2 bands so cant see Tool and Puscifier both playing.

 

[Chicken_Hunter]

I would be extremely happy with that line up. But I think Deftones have been ruled out plus its about 15 bands short of the amount of bands expected this year.

 

[Twizzle]

I'd be ecstatic, some of my fav bands

Tool, Primus, Deftones, Slayer, Disturbed and the Melvins.

Seen a lot of those bands and would be very keen to see again.

I really hope he ditches the 2 day thing.
