One of the nation's best urban festivals has dropped an early Christmas present in the shape of a bumper line up announcement, as forty bands are revealed by Camden Rocks to be starring in the June 2017 event.

Topping the Camden Rocks line up will be punk icons The Damned, who helped the charge of the genre with the release of the single 'New Rose' in 1976, widely held as the first ever punk record to make the UK top 40 chart. They'll be joined by a plethora of acts that include the likes of metal doyens Orange Goblin, dub tyrants Ruts DC, gyspy rockers The Urban Voodoo Machine, and indie upstarts Young Kato.

It makes the bill already extremely impressive, but there's still more than 200 acts to be announced as joining them as well, which will continue the festival's heritage as one of the strongest places to witness live music across all genres. It takes place on Saturday 3rd June, and you can secure Camden Rocks tickets via the box below.
