The opening night of this year’s Bloodstock festival has been revealed – with Arnocorps headlining the Sophie stage!
If you couldn’t guess (or didn’t already know), ArnoCorps’ lyrics are based exclusively on Arnold Schwarzenegger films and they look like they just fell out of a underfunded war film. What’s not to love?
“We’re so pumped to be bringing our action adventure, audio assault to the ballsiest of all metal festivals,” say the band. “As far back as our first UK tour in ‘06, our fans have prayed each and every year for ArnoCorps to perform at Bloodstock. Finally Crom has listened! On Thursday night, all attendees will gain unprecedented muscle mass as they become goddamn heroes and sheroes! Go!”
Joining ArnoCorps are the thrashy bunch Reign Of Fury, 2014’s Metal 2 The Masses winners Metaprism, Welsh death metallers Desecration and the pirate metallers Red Rum.
