Maryland Deathfest announces more bands & venue info

by Doug Moore

MDF

Maryland Deathfest announced its (almost) final lineup of bands this afternoon. At this point, the festival really didn’t need to add much to sell out its allotment of tickets, but there are some heavy hitters in this round of announcements nonetheless. Some highlights include Tryptikon (the post-Celtic Frost band, making their only US appearance), Dark Angel (the classic hyper-fast thrash band featuring Gene Hoglan of Strapping Young Lad/Fear Factory/Death), Inquisition (who released one of this year’s best albums), the long-running powerviolence act Capitalist Casualties, and reunited Floridian grinders Maruta. The complete list of new announcements is below.

Tickets for the festival go on sale tomorrow (11/23) at 3pm. You’ll be able to buy whole-fest passes for $255, and 3-day Friday->Sunday passes for each stage for considerably list. Individual tickets will go on sale in December.

MDF’s organizers also announced more venue information, including a breakdown of which bands will play at which of the fest’s three stages (though the only day-specific lineup that they’ve announced so far is for Thursday). You can find the complete lineup, divvied up by stage, along with the full list of new artist announcements, below…
