The official Sziget website lists a few new names for the Rock & Metal Stage.

We’re talking about a few Hungarian bands, completing the lineup, but also ~~two bands~~ a band coming from other countries.

The foreign band is Swedish/Danish Progressive band The Haunted – pictured below.

The Hungarian bands are Road, Dalriada, Depresszio, Nevergreen, Omen, Subscribe and Superbutt. The Lord band listed is also a Hungarian one, and they are listing the Sziget date on their website (thanks, dakota).

Of course, these bands will be in our Sziget 2011 line up page very soon.

Children of Bodom on August 11

Sziget News — Fri, 04 Jun 2010 22:07:32 +0000

We all already know that Finnish band Children of Bodom will play the Rock Stage at Sziget this year.

What we didn’t know was the date when they would do it. A post on their MySpace blog clears that up, too. Children of Bodom will play Sziget Festival 2010 on August 11.

A very full metal day it is, since we’ll get to see Children of Bodom, as well as Ill Nino, according to current info.

(thanks, Anthony)
