I know that it isn't even 2012 yet but im looking for a good metal fest to go to in america because mayhem and ozzfest usually has a shitty list and all. Can you guys tell me some names? or do i have to go to Europe for a good one?

Maryland Deathfest. http://www.marylanddeathfest.com/runningorder.html
New England Metal and Hardcore Festival. http://metalandhardcorefestival.com/main/archives/139

Mayhem isn't bad for $25 to be honest.

That MDF line-up looks pretty rowdy.

I'll say.

Here's some of the one's I'd love to see on that line up:

NAPALM DEATH
ARTILLERY
GHOUL
MACABRE

BRUJERIA
ANVIL


AUTOPSY
DYING FETUS



In Australia our metal festivals are shit with lots of commercial, radio friendly pop drivel.

When it comes to Metal, Australia is the UNlucky country.

For serious: Autopsy, Absu, Dying Fetus, ND, Nasum, Unsane, Today is the Day, Disma, Suffocation. Get your mosh on motherfuckers.

Not to mention the lighter stuff like Agalloch or Castevet.

Yob, Noothgrush, Electric Wizard, Church of Misery, Cough, Ulcerate and Dragged into Sunlight are going to bring the heavy crushing doom.

Anvil would be great to see and when else do you get to see Negura Bunget in the states?

MDF is always legit. Go. I want to.

There's also Gigantour with Megadeth, Motörhead, Volbeat, and Lacuna Coil. And Summer Slaughter isn't awful usually. And Paganfest: http://lambgoat.com/news/17411/Turisas-Alestorm-Ex-Deo-Huntress-tour

This year's Mayhemfest lineup according to last.fm:

Behemoth
Amon Amarth
Rob Zombie
Children of Bodom
Deftones
Job for a Cowboy
Chelsea Grin
Five Finger Death Punch
In This Moment
Killswitch Engage

I really want to see Behemoth given that they'll probably only do one US tour, but damn this lineup kinda blows. And if Behemoth isn't headlining the small stage then I would be kinda disappointed to see them from far away or with a smaller set...
