FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
RELAPSE RECORDING ARTISTS ORIGIN TO HEADLINE OHIO DEATHFEST 2005

ORIGIN has been confirmed as the headlining band at OHIO DEATHFEST 2005, as the group brings their decidedly punishing brand of technical death metal before an audience with an appetite foe skull-crushing extreme music at one of the premier metal festivals in the United States. Recently, the group released their latest slab of bruising sonic monstrosities to absolutely raving reviews from the metal press…

OHIO DEATHFEST 2005 will be held at the PHANTASY CONCERT CLUB in Lakewood, Ohio on June 24th and 25th. Other acts slated to appear include SUMMON, (who are fresh from a European Tour with GOD DETHRONED), New York’s PYREXIA, MORTAL DECAY, PROPHECY and the ever entertaining MEAT SHITS. This extreme form of entertainment, with themes of horror and the macabre has been enjoying a definite resurgence as of late, with recent books such as Albert Mudrian’s CHOOSING DEATH and prominent print publications such as METAL MANIACS and REVOLVER paying particular heed to the intense musical movement.

OHIO DEATHFEST 2005 was assembled by CASTLE BLAKK RECORDINGS, EXTREME MILLENIMUM ENTERTAINMENT and DFP PRODUCTIONS. “ORIGIN are such a powerful addition to the show and we are extremely glad to have them be a part of the fest!” exclaimed Sandi Newton, CEO of CASTLE BLAKK. Newton has been very active in concert promotions for the past fifteen years. On August 11th, 1990, “Metal Mom” brought MORBID ANGEL to Michigan for the band’s very first appearance in that particular state during the Altars of Madness tour. When asked how she goes about discovering new talent for the festivals that she promotes, Newton responded, “First, I try to make it to as many shows as I can and look at the openers for major acts. A lot of it comes from recommendations from other people. If someone says, “Check this guys out, they are awesome”, I usually do!” The show’s final schedule will be announced closer to the date of the event. Watch for details to follow.

the new disc is so good

I think they're coming in August. Blabbermouth said Boston but that usually means Worcester

Fuck, now I want to go to ODF again.

I'm actually going to the Ohio Deathfest, if you can believe that one. I was supposed to go to a different metal fest the same weekend, but it got cancelled, so me and Foley are packing up and going to this one.

Haha I don't know if the word "fest" should be allowed to be used with any event that can't get a better headliner than ORIGIN.
