Live Nation has issued the following update:

BAPTIZED IN BLOOD will open the one-day-festival GODS OF METAL 2011, on June 22 at Arena Fiera Milano, in Milan (Italy).

BAPTIZED IN BLOOD is a young and fresh Canadian band, their debut album was released via Roadrunner Records. These guys love to play fast, taking the influences from Swedish and American thrash metal:  a deadly formula, which will make you jump already from the early hours of the morning!

After the recent announcement of EUROPE and now BAPTIZED IN BLOOD, we state that the bill for GODS OF METAL 2011 is now complete.

The headliners at GODS OF METAL 2011 will be JUDAS PRIEST with their “farewell tour”, it will be the last and only opportunity to see Rob Halford & co. in Italy.
