Rex Features

Kid Rock, The Subways, Throwdown, Bleeding Through and Black Dahlia Murder will play the 2008 Download Festival.

The bands join headliners The Offspring, Lostprophets and Kiss.

Finnish rockers HIM, Motörhead, Jimmy Eat World and Judas Priest will also play the Midlands festival.

The 2006 festival ended in violence when police in riot gear charged through barricades so fire engines could tackle an out-of-control blaze.
