Soundwave 2016 First Line Up Announced

After the almost eternal-seeming drip feed, Soundwave have finally officially announced the first round of acts for their 2016 incarnation.
The 2016 festival will be headlined by Disturbed, who will be joined at the upper echelons of the bill by NOFX, Deftones, The Prodigy and Public Enemy, alongside the previously announced acts Bring Me The Horizon, Bullet For My Valentine and Refused. Rounding out the first announcement are Metal Allegiance, Hatebreed, Frenzal Rhomb, Failure, Lordi, Devil You Know, Moose Blood, Soulfly, Northlane, Dead Letter Circus, L7, Frnkiero and the Cellabration and Nothing But Thieves, with many more to be announced.
After spanning two days in 2015, the festival will return to a one-day format next year. The Melbourne leg of the festival will fill the empty space left by Big Day Out, running on Australia Day. Soundwave 2016 will be held on Tuesday January 26 in Melbourne.
