70000TONS OF METAL, The World's Biggest Floating Heavy Metal Festival is still anchored in the Hudson River. After last week's announcement overkill they better make one now so no one dies of SUFFOCATION! 22 out of 40 and counting... For how much longer are they going to stay anchored outside the Big Apple? You shall know soon...

Make no mistake, 70000TONS OF METAL is not your grandma's cruise. It's also not one of the cruises that share the ship with normal cruise guests. This is an all Heavy Metal cruise! Can you imagine that? A whole luxury cruise ship full of metalheads? And since there is no backstage Area you will have the opportunity to mingle side-by-side with the artists in this incredibly fan-friendly scenario that has no comparison. It's like everyone has a backstage pass!

So far 22 out of a total of 40 bands on board are known:

Amorphis
Cannibal Corpse
Coroner
DARK Funeral
Eluveitie
God Dethroned
Grave Digger
HammerFall
IN EXTREMO
