FREEDOM CALL

by **Shadow Son** » Mon Oct 09, 2017 7:25 am

Freedom Call? Meh

The "A" bands I'd like to see announced which are eligible would be Abbath, Ahab, Amon Amarth, Anaal Nathrakh, Animals As Leaders, Apocalyptica

However with the clue being:

Prepare to recoil in horror, the next one is "A" gruesome display!

Not sure any of those bands could fit that clue. Maybe Anaal Nathrakh?

by **Warphine** » Mon Oct 09, 2017 7:48 am

Someone on Facebook said they have a source that says next band is Aborted. Take it or leave it.

I'd be happy with Autopsy or Aborted for sure. Would be great to see Ian on the boat again!

by **TPH** » Mon Oct 09, 2017 7:59 am

The clue clearly points to Aborted. I'd be OK with that, but would definitely enjoy Anaal Nathrakh way more.

Alice Cooper

by **Hoppy McGee** » Mon Oct 09, 2017 8:53 am

Masterplan and Freedom Call are two big fat mehs from me. But that's ok, lineup needs to have some variety for everyone. (I wonder if sulfuric acid dude sold off his ticket and is kicking himself right now

)

The next clue seems to indicate something more up my alley is coming next. Either Aborted or Autopsy would amazing additions!!! I'd love for it to be Abbath but I don't think the clue fits for that.

does this mean Septicflesh is pulling out hard to be in Europe and on the boat at the same time

Absolutely not. Their last gig is on the 27th, they still have four full days to make it to Miami. More than plenty of time.

mistaked January for February ... sorry

by **alex_canada** » Mon Oct 09, 2017 9:58 am

Not that I think it's amon Amarth, but the clue still fits if you say something about a blood eagle...

by **stevep52** » Mon Oct 09, 2017 9:59 am

I also think that Archspire fits the clue. Their new album is amazing so surprised that no one has mentioned them yet.

If Septicflesh is joining the cruise right after the tour, will inquisition join them?

by **Mark** » Mon Oct 09, 2017 10:32 am

Fuck yeah! I always loved how much they are hated by a lot of the brutal dudes

And that's how you change a Meh-Lineup (at least to me) into pure gold with just 3 bands announced

I'd take both Archspire and Inquisition.

by **Pellaz** » Mon Oct 09, 2017 9:58 pm

I'm thinking Andy might have been a bit late with Freedom Call.

Not really my thang but I'm happy for the power folks.

The "A" almost HAS to be Aborted, but I kinda liked that unlikely "Blood Eagle" theory. (As seen on Vikings (tm))

Abbath or Atrocity would be great, though.

by **cowboy71** » Tue Oct 10, 2017 3:07 pm

Given that I am trying to find my way back on broad for 2018, I would like some female-fronted/symphonic metal from my wishlist please skipper.

Sadly unrepresented on the lineup thusfar :(

That IS kinda surprising, yep.

So much happy metal now...

Since last year was 70,000 Tons of Melodeath, asking for more just seems rude. Instead, I would request that Andy adds more doom to the lineup. In Vain, Eternal Tears of Sorrow, Katatonia, Novembre, November's Doom, take your pick. I'll wait.

by **metalmaciejmetal** » Wed Oct 11, 2017 8:52 am

A should be Anal Cunt... damn it! Putnam is dead!

Either band would be brilliant. However I've seen Aborted live before and would love to see Anaal Nathrakh live!

Eternal Tears Of Sorrow are melodeath, not doom... Great old style melodeath

You're right. I conflated "gothic" with doom in my head there. It's been a long week.

That's so sick you got to see them. Picnic of love might be the funniest album they released. Such outrageous lyrics. Just imagine if there was a band like Anal Cunt today. The amount of fainting couches and smelling salts needed for these sensitive hipster

Yeah, but but but I missed last year. Bring on the melodeath!

I would say it is pretty well represented for the first half of the lineup... Dark Tranquillity, Insomnium, Wolfheart, Gyze and arguably Aeternam/Swallow the Sun to some extent.

Welcome the gore masters, ABORTED onbroad Round 8 of 70000TONS OF METAL, The Original, The World’s Biggest Heavy Metal Cruise!

If you are onbroad you can spectate these engineers of the dead not once, but twice on your ultimate heavy metal vacation! Once on the way to the beautiful Turks and Caicos Islands and once on the way back to Florida!

Let the battle "B"egin...

by **acidbasement** » Thu Oct 12, 2017 10:41 pm

Please let the next band be Battle Beast!

by **Pellaz** » Thu Oct 12, 2017 10:45 pm

That seems most likely, but the clue could also include Battlelore.

by **cowboy71** » Thu Oct 12, 2017 10:50 pm

I'd be okay with Battle Beast.

I would die if it was Battlelore though!!

Battle Cross got a lot of requests so could also be them.

by **Pellaz** » Thu Oct 12, 2017 10:56 pm

I kept thinking I was forgetting someone else obvious. I like that band, too.

by **Warphine** » Thu Oct 12, 2017 10:59 pm

Aborted!!!!!! \m/

For "B" I want Bodyfarm! Their last album was called "Battle Breed" and had many songs about historical battles.

by **bodomdragon** » Thu Oct 12, 2017 11:10 pm

Now I'm too hyped thinking the next band could be Battle Beast... Damn, it better be!

by **Godflesh** » Thu Oct 12, 2017 11:31 pm

I’m LOVING the lineup so far, but it does seem a little death-heavy compared to previous years. Not complaining, we were deprived of Nile after all. Dying Fetus was one of my highlights.
I’ll let you guys battle about the “Battle” band. Since it can’t be Bolt Thrower nor Manowar, I don’t really care.
Unless it’s Body Count!

by **Ethrivas** » Thu Oct 12, 2017 11:36 pm

Brymir
Be'lakor
Belphegor
Behemoth
plox

i am even OK with Before the Dawn (ex-Wolfheart)

by **DragonLordJones** » Fri Oct 13, 2017 1:02 am

let's see we have
Battle Beast
Battleaxe
Battlecross
Battlelore
Battlerage
Battleroar
Battlesoul

just to name a few .... I'm sure I missed a few others - I would guess Battle Beast

by **Razor Ramon** » Fri Oct 13, 2017 3:36 am

ABORTED

Better be Battlelore.

by **Memnoch** » Fri Oct 13, 2017 3:47 am

Ouch, this one stings.

by **sara** » Fri Oct 13, 2017 4:06 am

Aborted is a great add. I love this line-up. If the next five bands are goofy Dallas power bands, I'm fine. Give his list some love, Andy.
