We’re feeling old as we realise that Children Of Bodom's debut album Something Wild was released 20 years ago. Finland's melodic death superstars will take to the road in 2017 to celebrate 20 years of life in the form of a mind-blowing classic setlist. For an entire month, Children Of Bodom will bring their reaper sound over to Europe, the UK leg will see the band hit two prestigious venues – London’s Shepherd’s Bush Empire and Manchester’s Academy 2. The band won over many new fans in London and Manchester last year when they toured with Megadeth, Lamb Of God, and Sylosis.

Their shows are widely acknowledged for being engaging, personable and energetic thrash parties. Children Of Bodom have incorporated many different musical styles into their celebrated sound, including melodic death metal, thrash, symphonic black metal, and neoclassical metal. Their enthralling mix of melodic hooks and instrumental acrobatics have solidified the band as one of the leading voices of music's new generation.

Blackpool’s punk festival has been running in various forms since 1996. Rebellion combines the old school punk and new wave with the new generation of gobby youth.

The line up for the fest is built throughout the year but even though it doesn’t take place until August, California’s Bad Religion have been announced as headliners for Thursday night and Tunbridge Wells’ Slaves for the Friday.

Already confirmed to join them on the bill are Angelic Upstarts, The Vapors, UK Subs, Canada’s legendary DOA, Poison Idea (they came from Portland, Oregon before it was cool), and the Neville Staple Band.

Further down the bill are the likes of MDC, Anti Nowhere League, Subhumans, Peter & The Test Tube Babies, Richie Ramone, Eddie & The Hot Rods, Paranoid Visions, The Gakk, and Kiss My Acid.

The all ages festival runs from August 3 to 6 in the famous Winter Gardens. The multiple stages are all indoors and children under 12 go free.
