Following reports that Metallica have been confirmed to headline the Finnish leg of the 2012 Sonisphere Festival, they’ve now also been confirmed to headline Sonisphere Spain.

Joining Metallica on the bill are reformed grunge icons Soundgarden. Since both Metallica and Soundgarden are confirmed to appear at the UK Download Festival in June, it seems incredibly unlikely that either band will be appearing at the UK Sonisphere event.

So far, the confirmed line up for Sonisphere Spain 2012 looks like this:
METALLICA
MASTODON
SLAYER
SOUNDGARDEN
CLUTCH
GOJIRA
VITA IMANA
GHOST
KYUSS LIVES
SKINDRED
WITHIN TEMPTATION
CHILDREN OF BODOM
ORANGE GOBLIN
SISTER
