Lacuna Coil And In Flames Talk Bloodstock
The headliners of the 2007 edition of the Bloodstock Open Air festival LACUNA COIL and IN FLAMES have commented on their participation in this year's event, which is scheduled to be held August 16-18 at Catton Hall in Derbyshire, England.
Said IN FLAMES bassist Peter Iwers: "Playing Bloodstock this year is a first time experience for us and itÂ’s hard to know what to expect, so we try to stay as relaxed as possible. We'll just get there and do our best and hope for a magnificent audience.
"Having played the U.K. before, we all know that the crowds always rock and we hope to see all the British IN FLAMES fans and their friends at the show. Also it's going to be a blast playing with such good friends as the guys in DARK TRANQUILITY, LACUNA COIL, ARCH ENEMY, etc”.
IN FLAMES is currently in pre-production for its new album, which is scheduled for release next year. The CD will be recorded in the newly built IF studios. The band is also playing various festivals in Europe this summer along with two shows supporting heavy metal giants IRON MAIDEN.
LACUNA COIL frontman Andrea Ferro had the following to say regarding his band's headlining appearance on the Friday night at Bloodstock Open Air: "Our last tour in the U.K. was a blast and it is about time for us to come back and have a great fucking time at the Bloodstock festival! It's our first appearance and we are really thrilled to see some of the old friends and a lot of new people. We will be ready to rock that stage and we expect the same from you guys. See ya there!!"
A video interview with LACUNA COIL's Cristina Scabbia and Andrea Ferro, conducted by metal personality Metal Sanaz prior to the Italian band's recent headlining show in Los Angeles, has been posted at this location.
More Bands Announced on "Viva La Bands, Vol 2"
BAM MARGERA PRESENTS…VIVA LA BANDS, VOL 2 is the latest in the skating/antic superstar’s unique musical vision shared with his fans. In addition to previously announced unreleased tracks from CLUTCH, CKY, and VAINS OF JENNA, exclusive additions to the track listing from IN FLAMES, CHILDREN OF BODOM, PLACEBO and THE BLOODHOUND GANG have just come in!
Jimmy Pop explains how THE BLOODHOUND GANG’s ‘romantic’ contribution to the compilation, "Screwing You On The Beach At Night" fits in (or doesn’t, in this case)… "I love so many of the bands on Viva La Bands 2. It's unfortunate that our contribution sticks out like a sore thumb. A big, gay, sore thumb." Placebo is also glad, albeit less comically, to be on the compilation, "Placebo is pleased that 'Soulmates' was hand-selected by Bam Margera to be a part of this project. He has exceedingly good taste," the band adds.
The CD/DVD combo will hit stores on September 4, 2007 and feature these unreleased tracks and much more. The compilation also brings together many of Bam’s other favorite artists such as GWAR, DIMMU BORGIR and THE SOUNDS, as well as newly acquired tracks from KILL HANNAH, VIKING SKULL, AND GNARKILL. The DVD component to this rocking release contains 30 minutes of never-before-seen Bam footage – a must-have for the ‘Jackass generation.’
