| _________________________________ [Sep 18,2012 12:05pm - KEVORD ""] Bolt thrower, Sleep, Abigail,Cruciamentum,Anhedonist, and Speedwolf. I would pay just to see that show. I'm super psyched now. It feels like May 2013 is gonna take forever to get here. |
| _____________________________________ [Sep 18,2012 12:09pm - Alx_Casket ""] Did they finally get a venue for this show? |

| ___________________________________ [Sep 18,2012 12:26pm - chrisREX ""] BOLT THROWER HOLY SHIT YES. Going into their set(s) in 09 I was fan. Since then I have become a huge fan. Still the best thing I've seen at MDF in my 5 years of going. Since they are already booking flights from Japan they should throw Metalucifer on that plane. |
| ________________________________________ [Sep 18,2012 12:32pm - boblovesmusic ""] Naw, save Metalucifer for next year! Can't have all the cards out at once! |

I was hoping I wouldn't want to go again since fests tend to be more frustrating than anything to me now, but fucking christ this lineup is too good to ignore. |
| ______________________________________ [Sep 29,2012 8:56pm - The_reverend ""] If it is where the rumors say it is going to be... it is perfect. |

| ______________________________________ [Oct 1,2012 2:45pm - boblovesmusic ""] We're a day early with this announcement, but we can finally let you know where MDF XI will be taking place. In a nutshell, we will be returning to the property formerly known as Sonar, and will be at least doubling the amount of outside space that we've been used to utilizing. We realize that it's a bit of a mind fuck to wait around for a few months just to hear that the fest is returning to the same place, but truth be told, the other places we looked at were either not able to give us a definite answer anytime soon, and/or had too many inconveniences that we did not want to put the fans through. During the venue search, it was brought to our attention that the new owners of the property were willing to collaborate with us, so we decided to go through with returning to a familiar place that is close to the hotels and conveniences of downtown Baltimore. The additional space outside will allow us to comfortably accommodate the crowd, and will a llow more room for the MDF vendor village, food vendors/food trucks, places to sit, and other new additions like misting tents to escape the possibility of it being hotter than it should be that weekend. There will be two outside stages plus the stage inside. Due to the new configuration outside, the placement of the outside stages will likely be different. As for the building itself, there are some renovations currently taking place, but the rooms will be used exactly how they have been in the past, and it will be air conditioned throughout. We would also like to announce the addition of a second inside stage at Baltimore Soundstage, which is a 1/2 mile walk away from the former Sonar (at 124 Market Place), and will be used from Friday-Sunday. This will be a smaller show without a barricade that will feature mostly hardcore and punk bands, and it will be scheduled in a way that should not conflict with anything going on at the former Sonar compound. All of the bands for this stage will be included in next week's announcement on October 9th. |
| __________________________________ [Oct 1,2012 3:03pm - Lamp nli ""] Interested in this hardcore/punk stage. |
| ____________________________________________ [Oct 1,2012 4:27pm - MarkFuckingRichards ""] Hotel booked. Concerthotels.com has some pretty good deals. |
| _________________________________ [Oct 1,2012 4:39pm - chrisREX ""] Booked my room at the Holiday Inn Express. |
| _____________________________________ [Oct 1,2012 4:47pm - Thundersteel ""] Lineup's looking stellar. Glad to see Manilla Road decided to play more U.S. shows after doing Warriors of Metal Fest. Not missing them or Venom. |
| __________________________________ [Oct 1,2012 4:54pm - Boozegood ""] The punk stage should be called "Mars", because that's where all that punk shit should be sent. |
| ___________________________________ [Oct 1,2012 5:21pm - trioxin245 ""] I love punk rock and HC but I really dont think they need a whole stage of it at maryland DEATH fest. If a DM band played a punk rock show theyd get laughed off stage. U METAL KHEDS DONT EVEN KNOW, BACK IN THA DAY IT WUZ THA PUNK ROCKAZ VS THE METAL KHEDS |
| __________________________________ [Oct 1,2012 5:34pm - nekronaut ""] OPIE |

If a DM band played a punk rock show theyd get laughed off stage. U METAL KHEDS DONT EVEN KNOW, BACK IN THA DAY IT WUZ THA PUNK ROCKAZ VS THE METAL KHEDS I always wonder how much of that "punk vs. metal" thing that supposedly happened in the 80s was a complete fabrication. It seems like punk kids had a bug up their ass and the metal dudes were down with whatever. |
| _____________________________________ [Oct 1,2012 7:39pm - Thundersteel ""] The whole "metal vs punk" thing (assuming that was really a thing, and not something that was just fabricated for Heavy Metal Parking Lot) was kind of hypocritical if you think about it. Metallica had some really obvious punk influences in their early demos and on Kill Em All. So did Venom, Bathory, Exciter, Di'Anno era Maiden, and countless other speed/heavy/thrash bands. |
| _____________________________ [Oct 1,2012 7:42pm - Lamp ""] I've definitely heard multiple accounts both directly and indirectly that punks in the 80s were either "not supposed to like punk" or that just a lot of people hated it. That's the thing I'm saying too though, without hardcore punk you wouldn't even have thrash or any of the faster genres of metal at all. Perhaps punk kids were just mad that metalheads only got something out of the music and not the message. OH WELL |

| _____________________________ [Oct 1,2012 8:04pm - Lamp ""] I got the reference and wasn't even addressing that anyway. |

| ______________________________________ [Oct 2,2012 11:43am - Thundersteel ""] Heard a rumor that Angel Witch might get added to this. I don't know if it's true or not. But if so, I would consider that to be one of the greatest days of my life. |
| _________________________________________ [Oct 2,2012 12:37pm - scottfromzircon ""] Mint! I hear Bolt Thrower is playing! Best Death Metal band of all time! |

| _____________________________ [Oct 2,2012 3:23pm - BSV ""] Ive always believed metal vs punk was a result of nightly brawls/riots when black sabbath toured with the ramones. Neither band has really addressed it...wasn't the tour canceled a few dates in? |
