For more chilled music check out Rock Werchter and Pukkelpop in Belgium. They've had some killer lineups and usually quite a bit cheaper than UK fests.

Very good mix of dance/pop/rock/metal. Something for anyone.

THIS is the kind of lineup that CF just don't seem to understand. They barely get 3 band of any real calibre and buffer it with bands I can see any night of the week anywhere in JHB.

P.S. Sorry for the loooong post, but the point must be made.
 
To each his own, I love At the Drive In, The Mars Volta and Sparta (Remaining members of ATDI)

To answer your question bizkit:

Mars Volta are a progressive rock band who write concept albums. There music is punk rock, jazz fusion, funk and some salsa thrown in for good measure.

Alexisonfire - Canadian post-hardcore band easily accesible. Its pretty much your screamo type music but its pretty energetic. Should give them a listen

Read faggy, emo, cross dressers who have taken "creativity" so far that it has become totally incomprehensible.

Sample lyrics:

"My nails peel back
When the taxidermist ruined
Goose stepped the freckling impatience
All the brittle tombs
Five hundred little q’s
I’m splitting hairs to
Match the faces "

"mputechture came
philistine praise
bottomless pit of empty names
incarcerated habits pour from the palms
severing the breast
nursing all the young"

"this dirt
is turning Christ to make repent again
so i've heard
they're cutting all the youngest ones
said this dirt
is turning Christ to make repent his lust
so i've heard
that the puppet tugs its pull"

Those are just three random verses. It is as coherent as they get.
 
2009 CF was a fail. Was gonna come up from Durban mainly just to see Bullet...but ja. Instead, I got my R300 refunded and got wasted on that weekend haha.

I would love to go to a proper metal fest like Wacken or something, just not that affordable atm, when I'm earning then I'll definetely save up.

Bands I'd love to see:
As I Lay Dying <--- Gods of Metalcore in my opinion
All That Remains
August Burns Red
Avenged Sevenfold
Bring Me The Horizon
Darkest Hour
Killswitch Engage
Lamb of God
Parkway Drive
DevilDriver
Slayer
Job for a Cowboy
Carnifex
As Blood Runs Black
Suicide Silence
In Flames

Also, I do not consider Rock/Metal as white music at all. I'm a huge death/metal/core fan and I'm not white, unfortunate that there aren't more like me though.

Btw, what is considered stoner-metal? I love All That Remains when baked.
