Machine Head get pissy and pull out of Sonisphere, but not pissy enough to pull out of the other three they're playing in Europe...

After annoucing Limp Bizkit would take the slot underneath Nine Inch Nails on the mainstage, Machine Head have unfortunately pulled out of the festival, sighting "disrespect and indignity offered by a promoter" as the reason - touchy! You can read their full statement here.

Promoters Kilimanjaro have also released a statement announcing that although Machine Head were offered a higher fee and a higher slot (below Avenged Sevenfold and above Alice In Chains on the Saturn stage, aka still the band before Nine Inch Nails), they have still chosen to pull out of the festival (but not out of international Sonispheres). Read the statement here.

Rock Sound can see both sides of the arguement, but stop the hate. This is a music festival!
