Official press release:
Before OZZfest. Before Mayhem Festival. Before all of them — there was Milwaukee Metal Fest.
The iconic, midwestern, multi-day event was the stuff of legends and is returning to prominence in 2023. Hatebreed frontman and podcaster Jamey Jasta purchased the rights last year and today announces the lineup for Milwaukee Metal Fest 2023.
The rebooted event will take place on Memorial Day Weekend at The Rave/Eagles club. Get tickets here.
The lineup includes Lamb of God, Anthrax, Suicidal Tendencies, and many more. The full lineup is below.
New festival owner Jamey Jasta shared the following:
The infamous Milwaukee Metal Fest created so many memories, hosted legendary bands, and gave up and comers something to aspire to. Memorial Day Weekend 2023 (May 26, 27, and 28) — it returns with a stacked line up and a new lease on life," says Jasta. "I cannot wait to see all the bands and hang with everyone in Milwaukee. I'm so grateful for [booking agent] Tim Borror and the Sound Talent Crew; and Leslie, Joe, and everyone at The Rave/Eagles for helping us put this event together. Milwaukee Metal Fest is back!

Post CommentYou know it's dog shit when For The Love Of played it before. f*cking band sucks a baker's dozen dicks.
Fight me during Crowbar. I'll be experiencing internal organ failure from years of drinking.
Lamb of god?? You farts just keep boasting Randy's huge ego and smelly ass. Band sucks, get bent.
Solid line-up. This fest was pretty great once upon a time. Would get debut U.S. appearances by Euro acts and some decent reunions. Venue was rough though.
I wonder how many bands will be canceled by woke Milwaukee sjw's before this thing even starts.
Jamey Jasta here. Call me a manlet again and see what happens.
You know it's dog shit when For The Love Of played it before. f*cking band sucks a baker's dozen dicks.<--- you must be the original vocalist for the band & you're just upset your "back ta basics" band wasnt asked to play this...
Fake news! Everyone around here knows that Terror only plays VFW halls for 500K guarantees.
I wonder how many bands will be canceled by woke Milwaukee sjw's before this thing even starts. ^Incels gonna incel
terror needs to be billed higher. also misery index over misery signals was a miss for WI
Some decent enough bands but nothing special, at all. No "rare" appearances, no "special" sets. This thing looks more like NE Metal Fest than anything else. How soon before Hatebreed get announced?
Come on over to the Tin Foil Hat Tent and see Jasta do a live podcast about Bigfoot, vaccines and the always popular "hollow moon theory"!!
whole audience will be asleep after the snoozefest that is Gatecreeper
Come on over to the Tin Foil Hat Tent and see Jasta do a live podcast about Bigfoot, vaccines and the always popular "hollow moon theory"!! Well dez be selling crypto, too???

Yeah, the original at least had rare/unique performances every year. If you're going to book heavily touring acts, have some of them do full albums or something different. Doubt this is something people will travel for.
terror needs to be billed higher. also misery index over misery signals was a miss for WI ^ "miss misery" by Elliott Smith > the misery of a pulled groin > "misery business" by paramore > misery signals. misery index smokes those lames.
you tried that unfunny <<< before and it failed remarkably. misery signals mops for the floor with index. controller
Back Ta Basics rulez!!! I heard the not original singer got kicked out for banging all the other members gfs. Hysterical.
ATB should be billed above Shadows Fall Fight me during Berzerker but then let's make up during The Light that Blinds. Then we'll leave before all the blue-collar-boomer bands come on.
can't believe sjw dying wish is playing this
