Post CommentBrian from Metal Blade here. You want this to be a tier 1 festival??? you should put Killswitch Engage on it. that is our new Tier 1 band since we dropped As I Lay Dying and their tier 4 shittiness
A few decent bands so far; has promise. How many will cancel like this last year? I'm trying to be optimistic...
it is worth going just because of Full of Hell
KsE could still only at best pull a tier 1 co-headline with AILD with alternating end set dates. i work at mb. this is in talks with unearth as support late fall
As I Lay Dying is not on metal blade. heard they are signing with Victory
jacob bannon here we actually are signing as i lay dying to deathwish when i saw how metal blade couldn't unload 500 count variants of a tier 1 band i thought you know what i have some space in the warehouse we can store that shit here
There will be a tribute set for Xxxtentacion played by members of converge and neurosis. Both bands are long time fans and were heavily influenced by the young rapper. They will also be be joined on stage by community leader Rick ta Life and Harvey Flannigan.
People who use mortician playing meme in their pics are stoked to go and see mortician so they can post pics of mortician playing while they are taking a picture.

hey Nerds-the As I Lay Dying Jokes are old... older than the lot of you posting them, thinking they are humorous.
Skaphe and Indian alone are enough to get me there. But Tomb Mold? Violator? Immolation? Yes, yes, yes. Dear God. Yes.
If Vomitory plays Revelation Nausea in its entirety, i will think about attending.

Wormrot should be on this so their idiot booking agent/manager/groupie can send them out with a musim dude who labels the bands luggage as his, flies the long way to the USA and then gets detained/returned, and the band and cry about it. Dumb Asians.
