The festival team are still slowly letting slip the set times across the twenty stages boasted throughout many of Camden\u2019s live music venues, but the day is already shaping up to be a hard hitting one from start to finish. If last year is anything to go by, there will certainly be a fair few tough decisions to be made regarding clashes as well, but for now we can get down to picking out the most notable acts on a truly stacked <b>Camden Rocks<\/b> lineup.<\/p>\n<p>Headliners <b>Bullet for my Valentine<\/b> are the focal point for sure, following their late reveal this past Monday. With their only London show of the year, the booking is perfectly timed to coincide with the first tastes of new album Venom, and an apparent return to the barn-storming Bullet who have been MIA for so long. One of the standout metal outfits of the 21st Century, the quartet will top an Electric Ballroom bill which has been confirmed to include the likes of <b>Black Spiders<\/b> as well as <b>&hellip;And You Will Know Us by the Trail of the Dead<\/b> and more, even before the late addition of <b>While She Sleeps<\/b> to sweeten the pot even further, less than a week removed from a trio of killer showings at this year\u2019s Slam Dunk festivals. For a band who have torn decisively into far bigger venues than this, the atmosphere within the Ballroom is sure to be nothing short of feral.<!-- more --><\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/78.media.tumblr.com\/aca411f8f90704cc4dfff074e6a6096b\/tumblr_np0rv7X0L31r8no6so3_r1_1280.jpg\" width=\"100%\" alt=\"\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n<p>The bands going up against <b>Bullet for my Valentine<\/b> will certainly have a lot to do in order to stand out. <b>Turbowol<\/b>f are one such act, making a return to the Camden Barfly stage to head up one of the strongest single stage lineups the festival has to offer, alongside <b>Feed the Rhino<\/b> and <b>Funeral for a Friend<\/b> amongst others. With <b>New Model Army<\/b>, <b>Jettblack<\/b> and <b>Turbowolf<\/b> also closing out stages across the festival, there\u2019s certainly something for everyone as the day draws to a close. Big names stand out all over the lineup however, with <b>Ginger Wildheart<\/b>\u2019s name commanding immediate attention when glancing at the poster. Having packed out the Jazz Club at last year\u2019s instalment of the raucous one-dayer, it\u2019s Proud that\u2019s the next venue in line where he\u2019ll be backed up by the likes of <b>Gun<\/b>, <b>Love Zombies<\/b> and <b>Michael Monroe<\/b>.<\/p>\n<p>the Barfly, Underworld, Electric Ballroom and Stillery butting heads for a massive multi-stage clash after the clock strikes eight. The four venues will be offering <b>Feed the Rhino<\/b>, <b>Heaven\u2019s Basement<\/b>, <b>While She Sleeps<\/b> and <b>Hawk Eyes<\/b> respectively, all of whom are enjoying some fantastic form as of late. It\u2019s cruel to be forced to decide between them, but with <b>Skindred<\/b> headlining the Underworld stage after a magnificent showing at this year\u2019s Hit the Deck, <b>Heaven\u2019s Basement<\/b> could be the wisest choice..<\/p>\n<p>When the full schedule of times and stage splits was released this past weekend, however, an arguably even bigger clash arose that has a whole lot of people sweating about where they\u2019ll be at 5PM this Saturday. <b>Black Spiders<\/b>, <b>Max Raptor<\/b>, <b>The St. Pierre Snake Invasion<\/b>, <b>Dinosaur Pile-Up<\/b> and <b>Monument<\/b> make it a near impossible decision, one that many could still be torn on right up to the bands taking the stage.<\/p>\n<p>There are plenty other names that jump out on the bill as simply too hot right now to miss. <b>Creeper<\/b> had a sensational outing at the <b>Great Escape Festival<\/b> earlier this month, and <b>Press to Meco<\/b>, <b>EofE<\/b> and <b>Brawlers<\/b> seem to be having similarly impressive years thus far. With less than a week until the festival kicks off, there is still plenty up in the air and many attendees\u2019 plans could still change considerably. For now though, there is little more to do besides sit back and applaud one of the most formidable one-day festival lineups that has been put together in years.<\/p>\n<figure><a href=\"https:\/\/40.media.tumblr.com\/0d657f3053341e14258cbb05230d8d1c\/tumblr_np0rv7X0L31r8no6so4_r1_1280.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/78.media.tumblr.com\/0d657f3053341e14258cbb05230d8d1c\/tumblr_np0rv7X0L31r8no6so4_r1_1280.jpg\" width=\"100%\" alt=\"\" title=\"\"><\/a><\/figure>\n<p><b>Camden Rocks Festival<\/b> 2015 takes place on Saturday May 30th 2015.<\/p>\n<p><b>Camden Rocks Festival<\/b> links: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.camdenrocksfestival.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Website<\/a>|<a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/CamdenRocksFestival\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Facebook<\/a>|<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/CamdenRocksFest\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Twitter<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Words by Antony Lusmore (<a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/VilinskiKonjic\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@VilinskiKonjic<\/a>)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Year on year, Camden has defined itself as a hotbed for live music, for both emerging and well established acts.
