Graspop Metal Meeting has confirmed LIMP BIZKIT as second headliner for Saturday June 28. Read below:
Two years ago LIMP BIZKIT amazed both friend and foe with a hard-hitting headlining show that topped off the second festival day. Their obstinate mix of nu-metal lavishly covered with a hip hop sauce was one of the day’s highlights and the crowd in front of the stage really let their hair down. This GMM-edition Fred Durst and friends will be providing top entertainment as headliner on Mainstage 2 on Saturday June 28. Their new album, ‘Stampede of the Disco Elephants’, is scheduled for an early 2014 release so there’s new material to look forward to as well. Judging by their previous GMM show we’re in for crazy costumes, the occasional striking cover and boundless live energy. These guys know how to whip an arena into a frenzy so come prepared.
Also confirmed: BEHEMOTH, TRIVIUM, MISS MAY I, CIVIL WAR, LYNCH BOB, STEEL PANTHER, SEBASTIAN BACH, RHAPSODY OF FIRE, WALKING PAPERS, PROTEST THE HERO, SEETHER, NILE, POWERMAN 5000
