MARYLAND DEATHFEST XII – UPDATES:

As reported on the Maryland Deathfest Facebook page:

Due to a line-up issue (specifically, no chance for the band to find a replacement drummer in time for MDF), WITCHRIST will not be performing at MDF XII.

THE RUINS OF BEVERAST (Germany) will be filling the vacant space created by the cancellation, which means they will be playing on Friday at the Edison Lot.

Also, we can now announce that PSEUDOGOD (Russia) have been confirmed to appear at MDF XII. They will be playing on Sunday at the Edison Lot. We will not be announcing anymore bands for any of the venues.

Korn - publicity band pic - The Paradigm Shift - promo - 2013

KORN – The iconic KORN will be headlining the HELL & HEAVEN METAL FEST 2014, on March 15th, in Mexico City, Mexico! KORN’s newest studio album and 11th overall, The Paradigm Shift, was released this past October 8th via Prospect Park. KORN have once again rallied their fans and stumped their critics, both with their melodically heavy and thoroughly convincing new release; coupled by the reunion with co-founding member/guitarist Brian “Head” Welch.

The Paradigm Shift has peaked at #8 on the Billboard 200 and currently sits at #151; marking the 12th overall KORN album to chart in the top 10. Cracking into the anxiety ridden bubble of the Rock Music mainstream is obviously nothing new for KORN; for the Heavy Rock listening public have spoken once again. This past November, KORN took hold of the #1 spot on the Active Rock Airplay Chart with their single Never Never.

KORN has also wrapped up a 17 date co-headlining arena tour in late November, with the legendary Rob Zombie. From December 3rd up to the Hell & Heaven Metal Fest this coming March, KORN will be making tour stops in Chile, The United States, New Zealand and Australia. The Rock historic past of KORN has been written; from here onward KORN will only add more chapters to their brilliant artistic and musical story. – Stone

Introducing The OBSCENE EXTREME WORLD TOUR For 2014!

Posted in Extreme Metal, Heavy Metal, Metal, metal bands, metal music, Music, rock music, rock music news with tags , , , , , , on November 7, 2013 by Metal Odyssey

Obscene Extreme World Tour 2014 - promo pic

Since the birth of Obscene Extreme back in 1999 exactly 643 (next year will exceed the ‘magic’ number of 666) bands will have played the Obscene Extreme festival. These bands have come from almost every corner of the globe and have attracted hordes of diehard extreme music fans from all over Europe and well beyond its home base in the Czech Republic.

What brings the fans to Obscene Extreme is more than the wide selection of underground grindcore, crust, punk, death, thrash, hardcore and almost every underground style in between, but also the incredible atmosphere, the DIY ethic and the true spirit of community. It doesn’t matter where you’re from or who you are, everyone is the same when you’re in the pit!

“For almost 15 years people have traveled the globe, driven across continents and slept in airports and railway stations to make it to Obscene Extreme, and now Obscene Extreme is making the same effort to come to you once again!!!” states OEF organiser Curby.

“After a really insane OEF World Tour in 2013 with festivals in Mexico, Indonesia and Australia we can say, we will never give up and we are back to do it once again in 2014!!! With the OEF Club World Tour 2014 we are rolling into Japan, Australia and the USA like the United Nations of Grind.”

Check more info on OEF websites and see you soon!!!

Obscene Extreme - Crowd - promo pic - 2013

5 Reasons The Obscene Extreme World Tour Is Going To Blow Your Mind!

1. Truly underground – Obscene Extreme is one of the few truly underground festivals to unite big, genre-defining bands, and small, cult bands.

2. Vegan-friendly – Whatever you do or don’t do, believe or practice, you’re welcome at Obscene Extreme.

3. Fair ticket price. No massive booking agent or energy drink mega-festival bullshit. Obscene Extreme is affordable for everyone.

4. No shitty rules, no shitty security – Stage diving, stage invasions and more, all welcome. Obscene Extreme treats you like people and doesn’t stop you having fun.

5. Grindcore carnival – Wear a gas mask, dress as a goregrind banana. Obscene Extreme is more than a festival – it’s a party!

Welcome to the Obscene Extreme family!!!
