Looks like sharon starting to get a little greedy. No anthrax, Maiden leaves early..This years line up is sub-par to begin with. The time is ripe 4 a new metal fest to take ozz fest place

Hey, does anybody remember the April Fool's joke metalunderground played on us last year?

Mudvayne is an awsome band but they can't hold a candle to Anthrax, just wondering whats the average price of a ticket to Ozzfest?

first, all of you who say mudvayne sucks cna go f*** yourselves. mudvayne f***ing rule and they kick the old anthrax's lineup's ass. plus the new lineup for anthrax with jon bush singing is so much better than the "among the living" ineup.

i think that there missing the big altmetal acts that ozzfest usually has. BLS,shadows fall,and rob zombie are there but they need SOAD or disturbed or something along that line.

I would have liked to see Slipknot fill the spot. I saw them in Hartford the opening night of the Subliminal Verses Tour, going on now, and it was one of the best shows I have ever seen. Shadows Fall and Lamb of God opened, it was an excellent show.

RYKNOW, have you ever seen Mudvayne live? I bought and listened to their albums, and I thougth they were pretty good. But then I saw them live, and I was VERY disappointed. I thought they did not put on a good performance at all, the vocals were horrible, the guitars were sloppy, and the drums were blah. I guess I will see this summer if they have gotten any better, but from past experience, I would not want to see them live again.

Aborted_Fetus is right! I have all mudvayne albums cause they are pretty dam good. But I saw them live in a large arena and they sucked real bad. The bass and drums were right on, but the singer was half a$$ and the guitars suck real bad. I saw them when they went on that tour this year where they performed in little clubs and they were great! I guess it's just better to see them in front of a small crowd. Anyways their new album sucks!

This is awesome. Mudvayne rocks and the new album is phenomenal. Sounds more like L.D.50 than the last album.
