Winning option:No Metallica at Glastonbury 2014 review – enough ferocity to silence the naysayers

This may not mark the dawning of a new era for metal at Glastonbury, but the heft of Metallica's sound is enough to win over the sceptics

Background

More than 10,000 people have joined a campaign calling for Metallica to be dropped from Glastonbury due to their frontman's support for bear hunting. Organisers of the campaign claim the metal group's politics are "incompatible with the spirit of Glastonbury", citing singer/guitarist James Hetfield's reported involvement in the upcoming documentary series The Hunt.

This year's Glastonbury festival will take place from 25 to 29 June. Besides Metallica, this year's performers include Arcade Fire, Kasabian, Elbow, Dolly Parton, Jack White, Pixies and Paolo Nutini.
