Maryland Deathfest VI update

[Crucified Coma]

The festival organizers for the annual Maryland Deathfest have posted the following update regarding next year’s show, which will take place from May 23rd to May 25th at the Sonar in Baltimore, MD:

"The first 21 bands for MDF VI have already been confirmed. The current list of all confirmed bands for MDF VI is as follows:

Grave - Sweden
Monstrosity - Florida
Repulsion - Michigan
Macabre - Illinois
Martyr - Canada
Deranged - Sweden
Impaled - California
Squash Bowels - Poland
Fuck...I'm Dead - Australia
Phobia - California
Hellnation - Kentucky
Disavowed - Netherlands
Gadget - Sweden
Defeated Sanity - Germany
Sublime Cadaveric Decomposition - France
Torsofuck - Finland
Coffins - Japan
Japanische Kampfhörspiele - Germany
Ghoul - Creepsylvania
Gruesome Stuff Relish - Spain

Waco Jesus - Illinois

The Arson Project - Sweden
Afgrund - Sweden
Infected Malignity - Japan
Keitzer - Germany
Kalibas - New York
Defeatist - New York
Copremesis - New York
Decrypt - Indiana

We'd also like to make it known that MDF VI will be a 3 day event. Friday the 23rd of May will no longer be considered a pre-fest, but rather the first day of the festival and will be made just a bit longer. You can expect the first day of MDF (Fri, 23rd) to begin around 6 PM and finish around midnight. The Saturday and Sunday of the fest can expect to start at the same time as previous years in the early afternoon. We expect to confirm approximately 36 bands in total for MDF VI that will span the 3 days, and once all bands have been announced tickets will go on sale. You will be able to purchase tickets by individual day, 3 day pass, and Saturday/Sunday only.

Furthermore we have received news that a permit is in possession of Sonar to block off the street in front of Sonar during MDF VI. One of the biggest advantages of the permit is that it will allow us to have food vendors outside to make it even easier for you to buy food during the festival. Stay tuned for the next band announcements. There are still a lot of great things in the works."
