Bloodstock Radio launches tomorrow, Saturday, December 1st. The launch is a re-branding for TotalRock, one of the most respected and pioneering of rock/metal radio stations, however, it’s not just a case of TotalRock under a new name. It will see an overhaul of the broadcasting schedule, with some major rock industry names coming on board to present weekly shows.

Metal Hammer editor, Alexander Milas will present a show from 4pm every Friday, while Iron Fist magazine editor, Louise Brown has a three-hour show every Wednesday from 1pm.

There’s also a welcome return for some of the most popular DJs in TotalRock’s twelve year history. Mighty Matt Mason is back every Friday from 9pm, while Talita Twoshoes and Feebz launch the week each Monday from 7am.

Joining them are names already well known to Bloodstock Festival devotees. Simon Hall kicks off proceedings at 9am on Saturday with his regular ‘Metal 2 The Masses’ roundup from Bloodstock HQ. Black Diamond’s Metal Mayhem happens from 10am each Tuesday, while DJ Beerman is on at 9pm the same day. Miss Bomb explodes on the airwaves at 9am every Thursday, with Gimli taking over at the other end of the same day, at 9pm.

As well as the hugely successful team of DJs who have kept TotalRock as the nation’s favourite online metal station for so long. These include those who broadcast live from France and Spain, making Bloodstock Radio a truly international station.
