Limp Bizkit

Limp Bizkit appearing at this event

Limp Bizkit formed in the mid-1990s in Jacksonville, an assemblage of visionaries brought together by frontman Fred Durst, a former Navy plebe turned tattoo artist who'd been writing raps since he was 14. The collision of sensibilities between Durst, Otto, Borland, bassist Sam Rivers and House of Pain's DJ Lethal formed a synthesis that was entirely of its time, a sonic barrage of crunchy power chords, phat grooves and psycho-delic loops that was without precedent - at least all under the same roof.

Following the group’s 1985 formation, Guns N’ Roses injected unbridled, unrivalled, and unstoppable attitude into the burgeoning Los Angeles rock scene.

Trivium

Trivium appearing at this event

Trivium's obsessive dedication has paid dividends, apparent both in the success they've achieved (high profile tours, well-received albums and plenty of press interest) and in the music itself. Theirs is a broad-minded sound that encompasses elements of thrash, death metal and even prog-rock, and one that perfectly reflects the work put into it.
