The 16th edition of Maryland Deathfest will take place in Baltimore on May 24-27, 2018. In June, MDF announced the first round of confirmed bands for the festival and added 19 more in July. And today, about an hour ago, they named 13 more, including My Dying Bride, Misþyrming, Dødheimsgard, and Mantar. Here’s the full list of new names:
My Dying Bride (UK)
Misþyrming (Iceland)
Dødheimsgard (Norway)
Viscera Infest (Japan)
Arkhon Infaustus (France)
Mantar (Germany)
Mortal Decay
Pavel Chekov
Torn the Fuck Apart
Fluoride
Bandit
Neolithic
Bestial Evil
The first lists of bands from June and July already sold me hard on MDF 2018, and this new group of names is just more icing on the cake. And the roll-out of bands still isn’t finished. MDF has announced that the final bands will be revealed later this month, and that single-day tickets and 3-day passes for each venue will go on sale after that.
Four-day passes are on sale now at this location:

I have to find a way to make this!
My Dying Bride and Misþyrming are cool…after that, this was kind of an unimpressive round. Hopefully there’s at least one more announcement to come with a few more interesting names.
Still really lacking on the black metal front as well
Hey, have you seen the cover of Fluoride’s latest EP? You have to like that… don’t you?

Haha “surgical brute” 🙂
I feel like I may have to change my avatar from the well loved flaming middle finger to this new, but more appropriate picture
It kind of seems made to order for you.
