wow, what crap bands. i dont understand how you go from what they had the first year, to this...to refresh your memories, a few bands from the first year:

DEVOURMENT
SUFFOCATION (1st reunion show)
NECROPHAGIST
Aborted
Dying Fetus
Saprogenic
Foetopsy
Brodequin
Goratory
Retch
Putrid Pile
Soils Of Fate

and now we get Birdflesh, Abcess and Kill the Client. total crap. i don't understand how a first-time show gets bands of that calibre, then once they're sucessful they get nothing but bottom of the barrel garbage...lame grind, boring goregrind and dated-sounding death metal bands dont exactly make my knob twitch. if theyre gonna flood the fest with grind like they did last eyar, at least get GOOD grind bands...ion dissonance, bodies in the gears of the apparatus, fuck the facts...

boo to this so far. and im not really expecting any huge announcements, either...remember last year, when rumors were flying around that tey were gonna get Cryptopsy and Sect of Execration? sorry kids, here's macabre as a headliner instead. thumbs fucking down.


Hi there,

Ryan here with the MDF. Wow, your words are just a little bit out of line. Allow me to inform you of a few things.

Yeah, the first year was predominantly brutal death metal bands, that is correct. Unfortunately, we listen to more than just brutal death metal these days, and quite honestly, we have bands play that we like. I personally listen to everything, death metal, grindcore, goregrind, metalcore, whatever. Let me offer my apologies for having an interest of anything else outside the realm of strictly brutal death metal bands. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy every band you mentioned from the 2003 fest, otherwise they wouldn't have been playing at MDF.

I personally like the bands we've announced so far, so if you'd like to start your own fest and create something to your liking, feel free. It's hard for me to see anyone whine based on the fact that we bust our asses just to try and do something good for the underground scene in general.

For the record, the 2003 was not successful at all for us. I'm not sure how you can claim that for me because personally I had no money at all after the 2003 fest. Thanks for assuming, though.

Most of all, it's funny that you mention getting "good grind" bands, when 2 of them were scheduled to appear last year. Bodies in the Gears played the fest, and Ion Dissonance would've if it weren't for the Canadian border police stopping them. Why don't you name me some bands that we don't already know?

I remember the rumours of Cryptopsy. Rumours are what they'll be, who cares.

However, I don't believe Evan or myself ever talked to Sect of Execration about playing the fest. In fact, I don't think we ever even considered them. So, that's how important your rumours are...

Finally, we don't believe in having a "headliner" anymore. When all is said and done with this current lineup, there will be several bands that could possibly headline. We don't plan on trying to dazzle anyone by singling out one band to come to the fest and see.

Thanks for your attention.
