If you're unfamiliar with 70,000 Tons of Metal, it's pretty much the greatest thing on the planet. Over 5 days, over 2,000 metalheads hop on board a luxury cruise ship for the world's only metal fest on the open seas. Rob and his ragtag bunch of Injection staffers walked on board for the 2011 cruise, posting a 20-minute video and over 500 photos of sunbathing and debauchery.
Although the next cruise will set sail in January, the good people of 70,000 Tons of Metal have announced the first 7 out of the 40 bands on the 2012 lineup:
Eluveitie
Grave Digger
My Dying Bride
Pestilence
Stratovarius
Therion
Tristania
Not bad at all! For tickets, check out the official 70,000 Tons of Metal website.
