Maryland Deathfest Gets Even Better With Addition Of Bolt Thrower

Posted by on September 20, 2012

It’s not even Halloween yet, but we already know what some of you are going to be up to Memorial Day Weekend in 2013. The Maryland Deathfest has quickly become a must-attend festival, getting acts to fly in and make some of their only U.S. appearances or lining up amazing reunions alongside some of the most true underground metal. And they’ve just announced ten more bands, with Bolt Thrower the most notable. Along with Carcass, who are also playing, it’s like a mini-reunion of the original Earache roster. It’s been years since the UK grindcore band played in the States, as they’ve basically been sticking to playing European festivals. As if that isn’t making you consider a holiday weekend in Baltimore, there’s expected to be a final round of artists announced sometime between October 8-10. The bands announced yesterday are:

BOLT THROWER (UK)
SLEEP
CARPATHIAN FOREST (Norway)
REVENGE (Canada)
ABIGAIL (Japan)
CRUCIAMENTUM (UK)
ANHEDONIST
