After teasing a return, Mayhem Fest is back, but as a single-day fall festival rather than a summer festival tour. The full lineup has been revealed, packed mostly with hard-hitting 21st century acts and headliners Bad Omens.
The 24-band fest is largely a who’s who of metalcore, past and present, with Parkway Drive and Architects also billed near the top.
