Another years means yet another Download Festival weekend, one of the leading British music festivals for all of your needs in rock, metal, punk and everything inbetween. With a stellar line-up which featured what could arguably be their best main stage headliners to date, we of course got stuck in with the mud, beer and fun that the festival is more than known for.

Having a father with the reputation that Iron Maiden vocalist Bruce Dickinson holds brings its fair share of both pros and cons, especially if you decided to go and start a band of your own. Austin Dickinson has some footsteps to follow in along with the rest of Rise To Remain, but with their recent debut ‘City Of Vultures’ entering at #83 in the UK Top 100 albums (and #10 in India, strangely) they’ve started well. Their headline tour following the release will show if they can hold up the material in a live setting though.
