Download disciples can finally catch a breathe after the third and final headliner of the 2016 festival was unveiled as Rammstein

After pulling the curtain on Black Sabbath and Iron Maiden for the other headline slots, Donington Park's addition of the German juggernaughts to its Friday frontier makes it one of the most seismic alternative line up announcements in years. 

Revered for their initialising of raging pyrotechnics and staggering visual performances, the band's high impact warchest including classics like 'Du Hast' (see them perform it at Download 2013 above) will once again set Europe's largest rock and metal fest apart from its competitors.

Download Festival takes place at Donington Park in Derby from Friday 10th - Sunday 12th June
