Thornhill have become one of the most exciting bands in modern metal, and after watching them open the Apex Stage at Download Festival 2026 I caught up with Jacob Charlton to talk about everything that's happening behind the scenes.

In this interview, we discuss the band's huge Download performance, the mindset behind their live shows, swapping sets with Ocean Grove, and what they've learned from touring with some of rock and metal's biggest names.

Recorded on site at Download Festival 2026.
