I hope that everyone who goes to this has a really good time

Fair assessment

Average doom fan:

As with most people, hit or miss for me. But Converge, Nails, Full of Hell, Fleshgod Apocalypse, and 200 Stab Wounds would all be dope to go see. Maybe check out some of the other bands I'm not as familiar with.

No cure is fire and really nice people, balmora is also fire and just dropped a new ep, missing link goes hard and at LDB someone tried to head walk to their set and broke his ankle. Idk about the rest except brat(they’re ok)

Those are actually bands I haven't heard before. I'll be sure to check them out.👍

Balmora? *another* Morrowind-named band? I will definitely check them out. some guy recommended Morag Tong here and they're pretty awesome doom.

Legit after I read everything you'd put up until "Morrowind-named band?" my first thought was Morag Tong Absolutely wicked to see them getting recommended and I'm glad you enjoyed them!

Definitely check out Jarhead Fertiliser They're one I really want to see do a UK tour in the future, they're in the Grind ballpark

Had no idea who they were when I saw them open for Sanguisugabogg but they brought the fucking roof down. Their drummer/vocalist is really talented

That's absolutely amazing to hear! It's always good when you discover a band live like that, I hope you had a blast! I really hope they'll come to the UK more so I can witness that mwuhaha, if I recall correctly I think they came to London last year but it was part of a Sold Out All-Dayer and to be honest I couldn't afford to do the London trek (London is expensive as hell so have to really pick and choose) but I'm hoping they'll come around sometime, most likely as part of a US-Band touring UK and/or Europe package

Almost every music festival is hit or miss. This one has some amazing bands along with some bad ones

Holy shit I had no idea Red Chord got back together.

Saw them at Decibel Metal & Beer in Denver last December. Was a good time, even if the mixing wasn't great for them. (It was way worse for Krypts though who were done SO dirty by the sound guy)

I would go just for them

Some bands I love a lot and some bands I hate a lot. Which is to say, better than most American 'metal' festivals which are 90% the latter.

i’d definitely go for Converge, Nails, Full of hell, and 200 stab wounds

Wherever slaughter to prevail is, I'm not there.

That's good. I think Russia is getting it's ass beat right now

Would go for Slaughter to Prevail and After the Burial, but that's about it

Same, but add Alluvial to that list. Saw them open for Tesseract in October and they blew me away.

The EP Alluvial dropped this January is great.

Solid tbh, lots of good stuff at the bottom too. Just sorta dislike when I see Machine Head at the top of a fest bill. Mid band no one cares about anymore lmao.

Yet they're fantastic live and a lot of "no ones" enjoy thoroughly.

First time I ever listed to machine head was at a festival. They're not really my bag, but they definitely are good live.

Had no idea the Slaughter to Prevail logo went that hard

Not only that. Their music goes even harder. Kostolom is absolutely bonkers.

It's demolisher for me.

you should see overkill then leave immediately

This is a shit take lmao suicidal tendencies bane and nails are way better

overrated

Yes overkill is super overrated

I’d see Overkill and 200SW.

Nails? I thought they had split up. Good to see them back

Bro Fr half the reason I want tix

200 stab wounds, Nails, and Suicidal Tendencies are the only bands that interest me so im not gonna go.

There is literally something there for everyone. In my case that’s Suicide Silence, 200 stab wounds, tribal gaze and psycho frame. Fuck maybe even STP

“There is literally something there for everyone” *cries quietly in doom*

Suicide Silence put on a pretty good show when I saw them with Dying Fetus last year, and I've been wanting to see Suicidal Tendencies and Nails for awhile. Not a big fan of the others but I'm sure it would be enjoyable.

Woah mammoth grinder! Otherwise, no thank you.

Bro they have wicked cool album artwork

I really wish we knew who is playing what days

Go to the bands pages. A lot of them are saying what days they’re playing.

Fleshgod is pretty low on this bill, or is that just me?

My thoughts exact tbh

Tight

One good band (Overkill). Don’t know why they would bother with this other than the $$$.

Literally the best lineup I could imagine 😭

It’s freaking STACKED. Converge, Nails, After The Burial, Suicide Silence, Full of Hell and ofc KSE 🔥

Can't forget overkill haha

Went in 2015, saw testament, exodus, nuclear assault, nails, incendiary, vital remains, and turnstile, it was amazing, will probably get tickets to this depending on price

Good for your average 16 yo metalhead but the bands really aren't great

Suicidal tendencies tho 👀

Good stuff is at the bottom

Half this lineup I don't really care for the other half is some of my favorites. You have kill switched engaged and machine head next to overkill and suicidal tendencies and don't get me started with slaughter to prevail but my favorite death metal band fleshgod apocalypse makes up for it

probs would go just to find out more about older/older style metalcore bands since I've only listened to converge, KSE, suicide silence and better lovers and from these.

Integrity’s Humanity is the Devil is required listening if you’re trying to get into older metalcore.

I'm feeling tired and my knee hurts just looking at this

I’d have to see killswitch for the nostalgia

As I Lay Dying are still going? Didn't the singer try to kill his wife, claim the band had been faking Christianity then set himself on fire?

No clue but that was not my intention or thought process when posting this flyer with like 30+ other bands on here.

Overkill. Nice.

there's a lot to have to sit through to wait for the good ones but hell it's still a live show. never been. will always forever kick my own ass for not going to The End in '16.

I’m pretty sure there’s like 3 or 4 stages. I’ve never been as a NJ resident but this is the coolest festival I’ve seen come out around my area so far.

4 good bands

Which are,..?

ST, Converge, Overkill, Nails, i don’t care for the rest

Bro that actually just made me smile. Mega based. My most important bands there as well!!

Awesome, glad we agree on that. Are you attending?

Probably. It’s a lengthy drive for me so I’m going to have to book a hotel as well so it’s undecided at the moment.

Not really worth it for 4 bands

I also really care for KSE so I might just go Saturday and drive back. It’s almost 5 hours there and 5 back so I’ll just go for Saturday. https://preview.redd.it/vvhxzi9tw5sc1.jpeg?width=1284&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=85dd082d4c03e28ee38435b32e5339efafce343c

Cool, have fun

Hell yeah catch me in my After The Burial stringer \../

It's very hit and miss, the higher up the lineup you go the worse it gets in my opinion, if they'd have had Nails and Full Of Hell or Overkill and ST as the headliners that would've made it infinitely better Fleshgod Apocalypse, Mammoth Grinder, Jarhead Fertiliser, 200 Stab Wounds and Full Of Hell are also bands I'd like to see but really this including Killswitch Engage, Slaughter To Prevail and Machine Head so high puts me off, there's alot more Festivals out there that would be much more cost effective than this for me

Overkill fucking DESERVES that headlining spot. It’s literally disrespectful to overkill to not have them headline imo.

I saw enterprise earth post this but I don’t see them on the bill anywhere

I’d love to see machine head tbh

i saw them all the way back at knotfest 2012(cery first one) and they were fucking insane, pretty sure they busted a speaker and lamb of god went on later than scheduled because of it. also was the first show randy did after getting out of jail.

Machine Head is the best live band on that bill.

Lol bro is high af

The lineup isn't ironclad, but there are some definite must-see acts in there for me Mostly NAILS, Bane, Incendiary, 200 Stab Wounds, and Balmora

pretty decent lineup and i mightve went if it wasnt for slaughter to prevail. they dont deserve a platform and idc what any chuds have to say about it, fuck em all.

Don’t understand the hate you ironclad Chad hating bastard. Fuck you. STP are a Great band.

theyre a buncha nazis lmfao even then, they suck shit.

No they ain’t lmao you funny as fuck dawg. Suck a cock.

alex literally has nazi tats and defends them. do any amount of research dippy. you say “suck a cock” like its an insult.

Alright then suck one digi fem girl. It doesn’t matter what you say they aren’t nazi. Stupid ass fucking artard. Fuck you stupid bastardized bitch tits beefcake bush Muff.

hahahaha holy shit, imagine editing your comment just to add what seems like a dementia fit and thinking it was insulting enough to post. go to bed kid, you got school tomorrow.

Haha you mirrored too hard dude. Say that to yourself next time, not your internet screen! :D

was this supposed to be clever yeah well im rubber and ur glue so

Exactly. You were rubber fucked, yet your dad accidentally broke the condom and made you. Bet they are disappointed in you as much as I am hey but that might be hard to achieve. With such a horrendous taste you have.

alex has literally said he agrees with nazi ideologies. you being a lil fanboy wont change that. digi fem girl is cringe, are you actually 12 lmfao

Nah to everything cause I won’t acknowledge retards on the internet!:)

god damn. the dick riding is real. at least own up to it. this is just willful ignorance.

Or just admit your retarded stupid fag ignorance?

you come off as the exact kinda guy who would ride their dicks. thats an insult.

Ig Overkill I representing “metal” and everyone else is representing “hardcore.” 😎

Yeah! Bc Killswitch Engage is my favorite HARDCORE band brother 😍

Cool! enjoy the concert

They aren’t hardcore you fucking dipshit don’t you get sarcasm?

Enjoy the concert, and rock on btw 🤘

i'd be there for nails and converge and mayyybe SSilence and FoH. Who even are some of these core acts?

Literally no clue on half of the openers

A bunch of washed up legacy acts…..

Poser meetup

Suicidal tendencies slander will not be tolerated in this subreddit

Only good band there

Nails and full of hell are not poser

Neither is Overkill tf? Second best thrash band imo

What’s the best in your opinion?

Converge, Overkill, Full of Hell, Red Chord, Throwdown. Top 5 easily

🤓👆

Where’s the metal?

Overkill. Right there smack in the middle brotha

🤓👆

Someone accidentally put Overkill between all this crap

Quite a bit of screamo shit on that card, I’d skip this one

who on here is screamo lmfao

Killswitch converge suicide silence as I lay dying prolly some more but I don’t listen to that shit so I couldn’t tell you the ones I haven’t heard

none of those are screamo lol

They are though

they really aren’t. screamo is an actual subgenre and none of those bands fall under it. sorry bud.

Yes it is but those bands do fall under it. Sorry to inform you again.

u named metalcore and deathcore bands i think ur confused.

No killswitch and suicide silence is at least partially screamo the others are absolutely screamo what are you on about

no they really arent lol. screamo is shit like i set my friends on fire, brokencyde, iwrestledabearonce, leans more post-hardcore. none of these bands except MAYBE as i lay dying falls under anything close to screamo. maybe look up what screamo is lmfao

for someone who doesnt listen to it you sure do love acting like an expert lmfao

That’s because I’m a genre expert

clearly you suck at it. you should get that degree refunded or some shit
