By any chance, has he ever given a clue that wasn't the first letter? (I just really want it to be Symphony X...)

Assuming it is the first letter, I really hope it's Xandria.

I figured two Scandinavian melodeath bands in a row was wishful thinking (if I'm not mistaken, we have yet to get back-to-back bands in the same subgenre). But I can still hope for Symphony X this time!

Just noticed on Kamelot's Instagram post about their 70,000 tons announcement... They hashtagged Arch Enemy and Nightwish. Arch Enemy was announced a few days later... Could Nightwish be one of the two remaining headliners to be announced? Naughty Kamelot They also tagged Epica too....Epica played ...

I would love to see Demon Hunter. Not on my wishlist, but mainly because I wouldn't expect to see 70K ever add them. I listen to quite a bit of metalcore but never got into them. Just the first unambiguous D that came to mind. If they were going to announce a metalcore D band, I'd prefer Darkest Ho...

Yay! You can never have enough melodeath. I hope the next band is Demon Hunter, just to piss off all the elitists. Never ceases to amaze me how pretentious metalheads can be.

Seriously though, Dark Tranquillity plz

According to the schedule, they actually had one hour set and one 45min set in 2014.

I'm not a Stuck Mojo fan but if one were to ever to like rap metal, they were the rap metal band to like back in the late 90s. They were the real deal and have credibility within the metal community. They definitely belong on the cruise IMO. Moreso than Devildriver and Amaranthe. I can't believe Am...

The Redshift.

Lock it up.

ALL OF MY YES.

Stuck Mojo is a strange choice, but I have no problem with them throwing some really weird stuff out there in a field of 60 bands. I'm sure some people on the ship will enjoy it. *shrug*

Their 2016 album is called The Passage unless we are talking different bands and Trust doesn't exist in any of the song titles .... unless it is an album in the works I'm sorry, didn't see any info on it ........ don't know the band - I do like what I've heard though Never heard of them before, but...

Seems like fun. I'm pretty particular about my music, but some of the 0s/1s might turn into 1s/2s depending on the schedule (and obviously the 5 is subject to further announcements). 5 - Kamelot - 2 4 - Amaranthe - 2 4 - Amorphis - 2 4 - Kalmah - 2 3 - Equilibrium - 1.5 3 - Powerglove - 1.5 2 - Orph...

This was my first thought, and I hope it happens, but it's a bit of a stretch and they do like to troll us (notably hinting at Amon Amarth and Obituary).
