Even this year's BA has not avoided line-up changes. We've done our best to live up to our reputation and replace artists who, for various reasons, cannot make it with other names of equal renown. It took quite an effort to confirm the replacement acts, but we are very happy to welcome them to our ranks.

After MY DYING BRIDE cancelled their participation at festivals we subsequently re-opened the discussion of their reconfirmation which, unfortunately, turned out to be out of possibility. But now we can present the iconic doom masters CANDLEMASS! 

PIG DESTROYER had to cancel their participation due to logistical reasons and we hope to bring them back next year. As their replacement, CEPHALIC CARNAGE will exclusively fly out to Europe to play not just one, but two sets! First, a celebration of the 20 years of ANOMALIES and second, a cross-section of their work. Pure Rocky Mountains hydro grind elitists right in your face - do you know the reptoids from Denver? 

Below is a list of other changes in the line-up. Our apologies go to all those of you looking forward to seeing one of the cancelled bands, but we hope the newly added bands will make it up!  

Stay tuned for the day schedule in the upcoming days...
