AGNOSTIC FRONT lead singer Roger Miret commented: “This is a huge tour for us and we can’t wait to get out there with our good friends in HATEBREED. As everybody knows by now, no matter what size show we play we always put out hearts into it and give 110%. We will always love playing the smaller shows, that’s where our roots are; screaming in peoples faces when they are three inches away from us. Now, there’s a lot more space between us and a lot more faces so I intend on screaming much louder! Prepare for hardcore fury!”
Pre-sale tickets for Stillborn Fest are available at low-service fee for this event at this location.
