Faith No More have been unveiled as the final headliner at this summer's Download Festival.

The group, who reformed last month, join previously announced headliners Slipknot and Def Leppard.

Faith No More formed in 1982 and achieved widespread airplay in the late eighties following the release of their 1989 album 'The Real Thing'.

The band, fronted by Mike Patton, split in 1998.

The reformation will feature Patton, bassist Billy Gould, drummer Mike Bordin, keyboardist Roddy Bottum and gutiarist Jon Hudson.

Download will take place in Donington Park on the weekend of June 12th-14th.

Tickets are on sale now and available through Gigwise here, or by calling our ticket hotline on 0871 230 1098.
