Even MORE bands drop off from the Kentucky Irate Festival (UPDATED)
For updates: scroll to the bottom
In the ongoing saga that seems to be the Kentucky Irate Music Festival, we reported yesterday that Left To Suffer was another band to drop off the lineup. This was a bit alarming because the previous bands that had cut ties could be considered 'locals' in the local community/scene, and possibly weren't selling tickets to the said event (as the promoters alluded to in his social posts). So when Left To Suffer announced they were removing themselves it seemed to be a tad bit more than that. So what has happened since we updated you yesterday?
It would seem that a list of bands and the event's host Hardcore Keem have dropped from the doomed event. Keem stated on his live stream he will no longer be hosting. No word yet on if The Browning will continue to play, Keem became the band's bassist earlier this year.
Other notable bands to have dropped thus far:
The Last Ten Seconds Of Life
Born A New
Kaonashi
Boundaries
Downswing
Summoning The Lich
The festival was originally advertised as having 82 bands play the 3-day event, as of now 38 bands in total have removed themselves or been removed from the festival. You can see some of the announcements below:
UPDATE: It would seem another band has been dropped by the festival itself. Until The Dead Walk was scheduled to perform at the Kentucky Irate Music festival and The Smoked Out Tour. Due to allegations surrounding the band as of late, they have been removed from both, which, ironically, the same promoter handles both the event and the tour.
Just days ago Until The Dead Walk had posted that a member had stepped down and that they were in fact playing the festival:
However, a day later the festival and tour promoter announced via his Facebook that they were not in fact playing the tour and the festival made an announcement that they weren't playing the festival:

Post CommentKeith Buckley here, be sure to check out my spoken word performance that I just booked for KIF.
still doesn't move the needle as long as bury your dead, evergreen terrace and scab band norma jean are playing.
Jesus Christ, what a bunch of horrible no-name acts. Also LOL @ Slaughter to Prevail (lol cute mask, Donnie Darko bunny rabbit) and THE BROWNING (who would name their band this lol) headlining day one. That's all you'd need to know about this "festival" just by looking.
The Last Ten Seconds Of Gay Born A Gay Gaynashi Gay Boundaries Gayswing Summoning The Gay
how does Norma Jean even give interviews and shit? "Tell us about how recording this new album differed from the classics like Bless the Martyr." "Oh, well, none of us were in the band for that album."
How in the f*ck is the Browning still a band? Band is f*cking hot GARBAGEEEEE.
"how does Norma Jean even give interviews and shit? "Tell us about how recording this new album differed from the classics like Bless the Martyr." "Oh, well, none of us were in the band for that album." lol @ Norma Jean having "classics"
Lol at these bands dropping off. You are just giving bands that are better than you (which isnt many) longer set times.
what about all the people traveling to see these bands? they could bring their mommy's allowance to boost Louisville's economy
Didn't everyone but the guitarist quit The Last Ten Seconds of Life so how tf were they playing anyways
Bands that nobody's ever heard of drop off from festival that nobody cares about.
Someone better tell Cory Brandon that he won't be getting paid for this event
Shit . . .Not Hardcore Keem too?! How will our lives go on without his graciousness hosting this gala?
What did this festival do that triggered the leftist crybabies?
FINALLY a fest where the bands have NOT had Nate Johnson within their ranks.-I did not know it was humanly possible.-the guy has been in Every metalcore band around.
At what point does the promoter just scrap the whole thing completely?
True headline: Local bands upset they aren't getting a free ride from the headliners and quit when they don't want to sell tickets. Hey losers, if you can't sell tickets, why would they want you on the bill anyways? You are doing the promoter's job and firing yourself from the show.
If they weren't told in advance they had to sell tickets, they've got a legit complaint. If they were, they don't. Simple as that. It's not as if this hasn't been a standard industry practice since the '80s. If you don't like it, understandable. Don't play those types of shows and/or work with those promoters.
^from the leaked screenshots it appears that in total, all 2000 of the local opening bands have to work together to sell a combined 400 tickets. How many openers are there? 20? So they can't find 20 fans each?
wait, this all started because bands didn't want to sell tickets?

This user definitely sucks on diseased cocks and most likely works for this circus
Singer of Until The Dead Walk raped a few women. Look it up
^ Apparently he was an "investor" in the fest as well.
The gay who books LDB fest is still stoked. And f*ck you lurk stop deleting comments bitchboi
"What did this festival do that triggered the leftist crybabies?" - A presumed Republican who today alone will complain about a "stolen" election, a shot, a mask, people they've never met loving other people they'll never meet, and women who'd never touch them having control over their own bodies.
just got word that bacon shoe dot patriot is pulling his sponsorship/ 4' x 6' banner in protest of the way things are getting handled
Yeah, real interesting that all these allegations against the Singer of a band that's also promoter on the festival come from one of the girl singers of one of the locals on the fest only after they're asked to sell tickets.. Definitely not fishy at all. #justiceforjohnnydepp
^ There's an allegation from a stripper about claims of rape as well

This entire statement is true. Leftists are f*cking insufferable crybabies and Republicans are insufferable cry babies. f*ck you all.
People who made their political party their entire personality these last few years should be f*cking embarrassed.

Props to whatever shit band is trying to stay on the bill while everyone else drops off so eventually they can be the headliner. Genius plan
-"A real who's who of nobody's" I did laugh my ass off getting to your comment hahaha
Also forgot to add in my last comment, definitely flying in from New Mexico for this. ...
Literally all these bands are absolute dog shit regardless
Waste dropped. Don't give a shit about this show anymore. They were the only reason to go
who the hell wants to go see a festival in KENTUCKY?
"What did this festival do that triggered the leftist crybabies?" Can you do suicide by cop in a corn field like that one dude in Cincinnati.?
Walking Dead? That show is as miserable as this band sounds.

This just in: your neighbor's gay deathcore band has dropped off KFC fest. Sad!
These bands are the biggest bunch of cry babies. They will all be broken up within a year
another guy with "hardcore" in his name. How cool that guy must be.
From what I've seen this sketchfest in cousinfinger, Kentucky tries signing on one million no names and conveniently didn't tell them about the ticket thing until now. Yea that's showbiz until a promoter decided to threaten their actual jiffy lube jobs because they were dropping off the fest. That's quite a line to cross.
Trump raped a minor, one of his wives, and the entire f*cking country. Right wingers are either delusional, assholes, or delusional assholes
^ the right all cosplay. ^^^^^^ Not a sentence. It's barely English. Nice job, liberal.

Impending Doom is gonna jam that parking lot so hard.
So for those of you not in Louisville I am in one of the bands that dropped. 13 women have now come forward and said that Ren fron Until Dead Walk raped them. 13. They all have independently described similar experiences. Yes this same Ren the Rapist invested $10,000 into the fest and many of the bands that dropped are aware of this. However the local band began dropping just days before these allegations were revealed due to how they were being treated and lied to by the promoters. The bands were told they could sell tickets in order to make money a fair deal we were happy with. A couple days ago the promoter sent out messages to every band that had not sold 5 tickets calling them "pitiful" and that if they did not sell 5 tickets they would not be allowed to play. This is a clever way to institute a pay to play at the cost of $300. This was never about selling 5 tickets. It was about being treated with respect and honesty.
Are girls still getting fingered at these type of gigs? Genuinely curious.
"It was about being treated with respect and honesty." is easily one of the funniest things a person who plays in a Z tier metalcore band could ever say. Welcome to the music industry, boys. Hope you enjoy getting f*cked over in ways you can't even imagine.
why would you buy tickets from a local band in 2022? lol
Do not ever believe in this pay to play bull shit. All these bands sucks. This whole festival sucks. Even if you see a band you like on it the only reason they're doing it is because they're too dumb to actually figure out how to do it themselves.
Confirmation that everyone in Louisville is a groomer.
"The Last Ten Seconds Of Gay Born A Gay Gaynashi Gay Boundaries Gayswing Summoning The Gay" Still the best comment here lol
"So for those of you not in Louisville I am in one of the bands that dropped. 13 women have now come forward and said that Ren fron Until Dead Walk raped them. 13. They all have independently described similar experiences…." so either Louisville let a band member run around and rape 13 women without saying a word because they are either too stupid to notice or didn't give a f*ck. The most likely answer is the accusations were made up so people can save face because even bands will buy onto tours. Five tickets is nothing. It's not like women don't coordinate story's in facebook groups or group chats. Either way, Louisville looks real bad and all of you should be cancelled for either allowing a rapist to not be put in check or making false allegations. Bloods on all y'all's hands.
Louisville is the city that teaches tranny stuff to children at school. No wonder they're all rapists.
^^^Leftists can groom young children with the best if them!
I thought kentucky was underwater. Is this festival on a boat or something????
Notice how leftists never deny their groomer tendencies? It's because their role models are groomers. It's also because they like f*cking children.
This guy needs to get a lawyer asap and sue for defamation. If it's true or not it will come out in court.
Hey guys Ren Affk here from Until the Dead Walk, I totally did not rape those women *wink wink* Anyway, come see us play at Groomer Fest 2022, the only tour we haven't been booted from. Make sure you bring your easily manipulated, overly friendly girlfriends who are devoid of boundaries. Like shooting fish in a barrel!
"This was never about selling 5 tickets. It was about being treated with respect and honesty." LOL… respect and honesty? Regardless of how big of d*^kheads the promoters are, a member of one of your "local bands" threatened said promoters for telling them they'd be dropped as a result of not selling their share of tickets and helping to promote the fest… (I'd drop their asses too) Now come on, you truly thought you were going to get a free ride onto a fest with even a couple decent headliners without doing your part? (AND IT WAS ONLY SELLING A COUPLE TICKETS)…. Such naive little dipshits.
lambgoat is on board with accusing z tier core vocalists of rape until a band posts about it, then its all of the women coordinated on a facebook rape faking group
lol @ the fact a bunch of entitled local children weren't going to get their way and had to actually put in some work or else their shitty band wasn't going to be able to play. Just goes to show "cancel culture" is alive and well.
"lol @ the fact a bunch of entitled local children weren't going to get their way and had to actually put in some work or else their shitty band wasn't going to be able to play. Just goes to show "cancel culture" is alive and well." …the irony is they're just canceling themselves. LoL
Everyone attending and performing at this "festival" is literally gay.
Ren the rapist was a 5% investor OF KENTUCKY RAPE FEST Joesph borland and KIF almost made a rape victim, make a man who raped her (Ren from UTDW) money, preforming. Then harrased her after she came out about what happened to her with Ren.

This article is written terribly. It's not clear why everyone is dropping off. The author seems to be more stoked about the symptoms and is forgetting to reveal the cause.
We need more band members openly going off on drunken rants on here. that shit was great. \m/ you guys can hate on gen z all you want, i'm making popcorn.
This is worse than battle of the bands. Spending all your time bickering online won't make your band any more successful. Just play a show and shut the f*ck up.
wow not a single "Kentucky Irape Fest" joke in here. Y'all be outta pocket.
kentucky irate festival = 86 in gematria. This festival is doomed to be 86'd. By the numbers
U know a festival is bad when Dr. Acula turns it down lol
The news article writing here has turned to utter shit. It's as if some retard who struggles with English pumps out these three quarter tard articles thinkings its going to grasp a new audience even though the lamb goat user base maxed out on 2007
When people wanna be edgy and hardcore in Lambgoat comments. How are you gonna tell bands from the east coast to sell tickets to a show in Kentucky? Line up was great but it's not worth making a bunch of hard enough working bands work even harder, for some scumbag to make a profit and criticize them. And the people wanna make it political when it has nothing to do with being republican or anything. Go choke on Trump's tiny dick if you wanna support rapists and scumbags. Y'all are mad you never got an opportunity to do anything with your lives so you hide behind a computer and talk shit about others success. I just feel sorry for you. I really do. To every dope band that dropped off the bill, you have real fans, f*ck these lambgoat gays.
Gays is assuming my sexual identity. You are gay for that
Trumps gonna lock up the gays. This thread was f*cking hilarious omg
First comment Impending doom is stoked
