The big belgian metal festival, Graspop Metal Meeting, has had an unfortunate dropout. The old frontrunners of the nu-metal movement of the 2000s, P.O.D., have been forced to cancel their appearance at the festival, which has resulted in some line-up changes.

Firstly, the british melodic metalcore outfit, Our Hollow, Our Home has joined the lineup and will play the Jupiler Stage. Secondly, New York hardcore act, Stray From The Path, have been moved and will now open Main Stage 2 on Saturday the 23rd of June. Swedish rock ‘n’ rollers, Backyard Babies, will now open Main Stage 1 on the Saturday as well and the all-female glam metal band, Vixen, have been moved to play Main Stage 1 as well.

The festival runs from the 21st of June till the 24th of June in Dessel, Belgium and features powerhouse names in the rock and metal genres such as Guns N’ Roses, Iron Maiden, Volbeat, Ozzy Osbourne, Judas Priest, A Perfect Circle, Marilyn Manson, Ghost and many, many more.
