When our photographer, Gary Wolstenholme returned from snapping GWAR to the Media Tent covered in red paint and slightly furious, we told him that he knew he was going to get covered in red paint so he was unable to actually be furious. He remained furious. To appease the fury we’ve put up a bumper load of his photos of GWAR. Enjoy.

Download Festival 2011 preview: the METAL picks
June 8th, 2011
Obviously, we previewed the three headliners – they’re the ones that sell the tickets, after all – but there are some awesome bands on the undercard as well. There’s always moaning that there’s no metal at Download Festival. These people obviously haven’t or are unable to read the line-up. That means that they probably won’t read about these 12 metal bands either but here’s some metal anyway. Stick it up your arse!

What? What? Is it “Crap Fucking Album” week or something? Are people starting to take the piss because it’s getting towards the end of the year or something? That’s got to be the reason why I’ve been given Bakteria‘s album’s worth of puerile dick-joke thrash to review.
