Ieperfest have made a few amendments and additions to the line up for this years summer event. Unfortunately Bonecrusher, Chokehold, Poison Idea, Correction, Oi Polloi, Trouble, Werhmacht, and Steve Ignorant & Paranoid Visions have pulled out of the festival for various reasons. Fear not though, as the organisers have found more than suitable replacements in the shape of Sweet Jesus, Horse The Band, Blind Beliefs, and Darkbuster, with more names to be added in the near future. They join an already stacked selection of bands from the worlds of punk, hardcore, and metal including Sick Of It All, Judge, Guns Up!, Less Than Jake, Biohazard, Ceremony and dozens more.
Now in its 23rd year, Ieperfest takes place in Ypres, Belgium on August 14th, 15th, and 16th, and tickets are still available now from their brand new website. We will be there to bring you all the coverage of the weekend, and keep your eyes peeled for our preview of the most unmissable bands at the festival in the coming weeks. Relive Sick Of It All’s fantastic set from 2012 below.
