Scenestr Soundwave 2015 Line-up Predictions

It's that time of the year when heavy metalers and screamers alike are chomping at the bit to find out which or their favourite bands will be playing at Soundwave 2015.

We've done research, begged, attempted bribes and even offered our children to get at least some evidence of who is coming to Soundwave 2105, but the industry girls and boys have their lips sealed tight and we're left only to hypothesise.

Next year Soundwave is a two-day festival which would mean that the promoter, AJ Maddah, has more big name headliners than ever lined-up so here is our hypothesis:

Already confirmed:

Ne Obliviscari
Coldrain
Patent Pending
The Interrupters
Confession
Butcher Babies
Monuments

In for good chance:

Alice Cooper
Slipnot
Red Hot Chilli Peppers
Black Label Society
Rise Against
Machine Head
Volbeat
12 Foot Ninja
Exodus
Alestrom
Amity Affliction
All Time Low
All that Remains
Area 7
Bullet For My Valentine
Butcher Babies
Behemeth
Manowar
Anthrax
Newsted
Social Distortion
Papa Roach
The Bennies
Opeth
Asking Alexandria
Motionless In White
Bayside
Four Year Strong
Andrew McMahon

Slim chance for these puppies:

Fear Factory
Baby Metal
Judas Preist
Jack White
Weird Al
Edguy
White Chapel
Wintergarden
Armored Saint
Soundgarden
Against Me!
Lamb Of God
Social Distortion
Smashing Pumpkins
Yellowcard
Stone Temple Pilots
Janes Addiction

Of course, there will be plenty of local bands playing so make sure you source them out and support them.

We are waiting with bated breath for the official release on Wednesday morning. Sit tight people, one and a half sleeps to go...
