After some super-spy work, Metal Hammer understands that Download may be a Classic Rock paradise on its closing night.

The Metal Hammer moles have been busy this lunchtime and with Slipknot already having confirmed their appearance on Saturday, the industry grapevine is now working overtime.

In our exclusive interview Download Festival organizer suggested ZZ Top and Britain’s very own Def Leppard…two names which were strongly reinforced over our spicy pork and chicken noodles. Add to this another name SLITHERING into contention and we wouldn’t be surprised if Download’s Sunday turns into a more classic rock affair.

It also seems as though Heaven & Hell may not be playing the festival after all but come back on Monday for ‘Day Of Reckoning’ when both Download and Metallica’s Knebworth extravaganza are to announce just a small portion of their bills.

Today has seen Slipknot self-confirm as headliners for the Saturday evening and ‘Hammer scribe Beez has his say on why they deserve it.
