Moshing. Pitting. Slam-dancing. Flailing wildly into strangers. Whatever you wanna call it, there are few things better than heading down front into the maelstrom of a metal festival and getting up close with the bloodthirsty hordes.
As the UK's premier metal festival, the Bloodstock faithful know a thing or two about mosh-pits. That sacred spinning circle of violence where the outside world no longer matters, it's just you and the music and new friends working shit out together.
Few things can match the true feeling of that melee, but we sent fearless photographer Chris Bethell into the chaos to capture those moments of unbridled freedom and ferocity at their most pure. Have a scroll and wish you were there.
