Band Photo: Ozzy Osbourne (?)
Disturbed frontman, David Draiman confirmed his band will tour the Ozzfest circuit this summer.
Draiman revealed his forthcoming tour schedule to a Seattle Radio on January 7. The pierced singer stated, ""It looks like at this point that we are confirmed for Ozzfest this summer, so that should be a good thing. It's looking like that's gonna happen, so…"
Disturbed last played Ozzfest in 2003 on the main stage with Ozzy Osbourne, Korn, Marilyn Manson, and Chevelle.
As previously reported, Black Label Society has also been confirmed for the Ozzfest 2006. Atreyu and Avenged Sevenfold have been offered spots on the tour, but not publically committed either way.

I hear ya. I mean, the fest overall could still be good, but it's not an ideal set of bands to announce first for many metal fans, I think. I wouldn't mind seeing all those bands on the bill as long as they are balance by some really good agressive, fast, heavy bands.

Are you kidding me?!!!! Disturbed sux!!! Why are they picking sh**ty bands!!!(except 4 BLS).....listen Slayer,Machine Head,Deicide,and Cannibal Corpse are going to have new albums b4 the Ozzfest!!Why in the hell don't they pick them!! Ahhhhhhhhhhh!!!! Keep the Ozzfest brutal you morons!!!!!

Ok. 1st things 1st. There was Atreyu and I commented. Then there was A7x then i commented on that. NOW this sh** has gotta come to light. I don't know who or what is promoting this thing but they really aren't getting bands that the fans want. The more bands they add the more it is sounding like Lalapolooza tour all over again. All they need to do is add an act like Chemical Brothers or Crystal Method then they would be set. I think what they are trying to do is to appeal to the 20 something crowds who call themselves punk/hardcore because they listen to Green Day. The only thing we can hope for is that SoTu will be as good as last year because Ozzfest will be your Vans warped tour x2.That is why real metal will always stay underground because they will never get recognized as good music not even by a legend like Ozzy.The problem is they will sellout shows and it will make Ozzfest next year with even worse with bands like MCR,Fall out boy,The Used,Taking back Sunday,Hawthorne Heights,Silverstein,Something Corporate. Hellfest should tought us all a lesson that people in the "real" world look at our music and think that it is satanic and we are going to hell for listening to it. But what they don't know is if everyone stuck with conformity this planet would be no fun to live on.That is why you need to go support your local bands. Even the national bands when they come to a town near you. If we don't we will one day lose metal and have to deal with this emo sh** because it WILL take over. On a sad note I am accepting donations via paypal for a get well present for D.B. because he has fell and bumped his head and I don't know the condition yet but as soon as I do I will let you know. (I mean he had to hit something to put Disturbed on this site) Whats wrong D.B. we slummin now?
Coming Soon to Ozzfest:
311
Creed
Blink 182
Linkin Park
And Everyones favorite Crazy Town.
LMFAO D.B. you still alright in my book.

ok, ozzfest so far looks like sh**. i mean, if at least atreyu and A7X would've confirmed it would be ok but i guess they realized its gonna be a bust this year anyways. they need to get some bands like slayer and lamb of god on the main stage to headline, then fill up the second stage with bands like bleeding through, unearth, trivium...that kinda stuff. and tell you the truth, i wouldnt mind seeing mudvayne and slipknot again. and even though they will never make it on there again, i'd just like to say that linkin park isnt that bad. yea, b**** me out now, i dont care.

15. writes:
I blame all this s**t on sharen osbourne. she is killing ozzfest with all these f**cking queer bands. since ozzy will not be at all the ozzfests this year they will have to get a good headliner and it sounds like they will f**ck that up too. I heard that they offered slipknot a headlining spot,i mean they are ok but not headlining material.




19. writes:
f*** this man. Disturbed are ok and all but come on. BLS is good but atreyu and A7X suck. my god, i hope they can at least get slayer or priest on there this year. if priest, slayer and bodom are on then i'm going for sure. f***ing crap bands...slipknot being offered headliner?! WTF IS SHARON THINKING?!
20. writes:
Yeah I agree with SlayerRulz--wasn't Dramain just saying how Disturbed didn't want to be pigeonholed as "metal" because they are sooooo talented? Didn't he also blast the hard metal acts and their style of vocals? I say they put Disturbed on right after Chimaira (not invited to this point) , so Disturbed can have a looksee at some of those "weird-vocals", haha.
Also the first stage at Ozzfest is usually pretty trendy and crappy, so what do you expect? The second stage is usually where it's at as far as I'm concerned.

Ozzfest will officially suck D!ck Now.. The Lineups used to be good until last year when they let Jada Stinket Smith Play with Her SH!tty band i would'nt even consider them a band.F@ck Sharon Osbourne that stupid Wh@re she is ruining ozzfest...Bring Back the good Bands like slayer, megadeth, anthrax
23. writes:
You know what I fear the most? The fact that POD has played on the Fest twice...and they have a new record out...she couldn't possibly put them back on...could she???
As for Disturbed...blah...I have nothing more to say...blah. How f***ing boring...to be able to keep this Fest running in the post-Ozzy era she will need to do a hell of a lot better. I mean, I like BLS...but I've seen 'em almost ten times already (mostly on the Ozzfest). Have some vision Sharon...step out on a limb and take a chance on some bands out of the mainstream.
Nevermind, my words will probably fall on deaf ears. This whole thing is disheartening.

24. writes:
I agree with you Graveland, you're all complaining about how much the show will suck, if you don't want to hear it than just don't go, it's easy not to go somewhere. I wouldn't mind going if Mudvayne or System Of A Down came back. But System Of A Down went way back in 1998 or 1999, and haven't gone since, I think.


27. writes:
f*** all these shows. I'm going to see Emperor in New York on July 13 & 14, and the Metal Crusaders Tour this summer with Graveworm. Ozzfest sucks anymore, and the way its looking, SotU2 is looking horrible too. Where's metal going these days? Hopefully Gigantour comes back this year with a kickass lineup.


30. writes:
ozzfest has su cked for awhile, sounds was good but those bands werent really underground. most of them were hardcore bands or rather popular "underground" acts. there was some really good metal acts like STL and Gwar, Lamb of God was good. it was good and i would consider going again if they would book more bands then hardcore bands. but whatever this is america metal is "coming back" ha europe has such a better talented music scene. oh well. but ozzfest sucks like usual.
31. writes:
I'm extremely happy that Sounds of the Underground's and Gigantour's first runs were last summer. They came in at just the right time; Ozzfest is dying out, and the other two tours should be even better/more smoothly run this summer around. I'll bet anything that the ticket prices at Ozzfest will go up another 20 f***ing dollars. In '04 lawn tickets were $30. In '05, lawn tickets were $50. It's not f***ing worth it. That's not a true metal show.
"Disturbed is a good band and meshuggah sucks." NO, you turd.
Some decribe Meshuggah as math-metal. This means lots of technical playing. Disturbed can be described as nu-metal. Anyone see where I'm going with this?



35. writes:
i agree with everyone here. i live in australia and have never been to ozzfest or even the states for that fact. But looking at these bands, how can they fit the stage for something called ozzfest??? bring on some real f***ing metal for sh** sake. i mean anyone can learn power chords and become a 'metal band'. as for disturbed...learn how to play you new metal fags. FOREVER DIME!!!




40. writes:
disturbed is awesome with ten thousands fists. i don't have a problem with at ozzfest knowing their not metal but hard rock. the bands that should be in ozzfest this year are trivium, shadows falls, him, bls, cradle of filth, slayer, megadeth, mudvayne, motorhead, lacuna coil, and finally..............ROB ZOMBIE.


44. writes:
Here are some bands that need to be placed on Ozzfest....or brought back to Ozzfest for it to regain it's greatness.
InFlames(with a LONGER headlining spot) Soilwork, The Shape of Despair, Deadlock, Nile, SYL, COB, Dimmu Borgir, Cradle of Filth, ,dark Tranquility, Dillenger Escape Plan,(practically ANY band that has true musical talent along with grisly intensity) and as for the singing headliners to make the hair metal fans wet themselves.....kamelot/ Dream Theater (they can be VERY heavy), or Priest.
Right now though, it all seems to be going to sh**. Look out for Ozzfest this year
Spice girls, Brittany Spears, O-Town, and Mya to be mentioned!
**Go STILLERS**



49. writes:
Disturbed has now been there 4 times. System of a Down has been there 3. I don't want to see either of them there. Slayer, Machine Head, and Killswitch Engage are all putting out albums soon. I'd like to see them take the main stage this year. Other bands who have recently put out discs are Sevendust, Byzantine, God Forbid, and DevilDriver.
There will be commercial bands on this tour, they play arena type settings, they need to fill the seats, it's inevitable, so that's why they have offered spots to Atreyu and Avenged Sevenfold. Atreyu isn't that bad, Ozzfest has been worse in the past.
Lastly, the second stage generally have heavier bands, and that's where you can get close anyway.

Caliga needs to be brought to the metal spotlight to rape all these bands from behind and show them the essence of metal and how it is always evolving. www.myspace.com/caliga and these guys are not all in their twenties yet.....imagine the future!!!!! This is what OZzfest needs......right now it's just zzZZ-fest.






59. writes:
i think 2004 was the best ozzfest in my opinion and i have been to 3 of them 2005 was good to but 2001 to 2003 was nu metals reign so ozzfest sucked ass. I went in 2003 and it was horrible especially the main stage. the only bands i thought that were worth anything that year was shadows fall, killswitch engage, and chimaira. 2004 was my favorite though and from the looks of it I probably won't go this year unless we get a way better line up ahead. And what the f*** is up with that ozzfest dvd that is horrible besides anthrax but that is probably what ozzfest is gonna start being like. they will start having line ups that were on that dvd.




64. writes:
yea disturbed really shouldn't be on ozzfest, they are boring live anyway....as for all the other bands that you guys want to see, they've already played ozzfest in the last couple years and if you just keep bringing back the same damn bands it'll get boring...more boring than having disturbed and ax7 play. i agree that maybe sevendust, byzantine, six feet under and other bands like that should play since they haven't been on ozzfest before or haven't played in quite a few years. but seriously seeing the same bands over and over (BLS) can get old...i like BLS but it seemed like last year it should have just been zack wylde since he was soloing the whole time.

"Too many doses and I'm starting to get an erection" Avenged sevenfold's music is gayer than to dudes humping eachother in tutus! F#ck the entire music industry in the United States, and f^ck this entire "festival"! This business is for homos. I cannot believe that so many people would suggest bands such as disturbed, sevencoks, atreyu, Chimaira, Mushroomhead, trivium, system of a down syndrome, Manson, sh**snot, sevenpuss, and the best one of them all Him. While some of these bands may posess good enough musicianship, it doenst change the fact that the music blows peter. Kenny G rocks the f#cking flute too, but I'm not going to run out and buy one of his records either. Most of the so called "metal" bands of the United States are so generic sounding that it makes me sick. See Hatebreed. Simple f***ing powerchord crap. And they posess the same generic sounding vocals as all the rest of this nu crap. And to show you how queer music in our country is, Hatebreed has played with Slayer more times than I care to recount. TO HEAVEN WITH ALL GENERIC METAL!! The only post I read worth reading was the person who suggested Superjoint Ritual and or Down who is supposed to be puting out another album. See festivals such as Dynamo, Wacken, Winternoise Festival (dissection will be there!!) for some real band lineups. Oh yeah and Messhuggah has more musical talent in their drummers right ear than all this generic "metal" put together. Thanks to those who know this and put that douche bag who said Disturbed is better in his place.... which is between some dudes but crack where he and his nu metal belong!

F@CK YOU SHARON OSBOURNE!!! EDDIE OWNS ALL AND HE FORGIVES NOTHING AND NOBODY! I'm starting a petition for MAIDENFEST!! Super happy to see BLS take up another slot on the mainstage though! Zakk, I mean ozzy, I mean zakk, never gets to play with ozzy..PFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF Maybe by his next album (which will probably be out within the hour) he can finally complete is transformation and actually become ozzy!! His vocals are pretty much right on now. I love BLS dont get me wrong, Zakk is a guitar legend already, but lets be honest hangover music, and mafia (while good albums) didnt exactly own up to his previous masterpieces such as Sonic Brew, Stronger than death, or 1919 Eternal, (pre ozzy BLS) or even pride and glory, and Book of Shadows in my opinion. And his appearances at every f@cking ozzfest are getting a bit stagnant in my opinion. ZAKK let it go and give your spot up to a band who has not yet had the chance to play ozzfest before it turnes into homoemo fest..........wait its already too late! RIP OZZFEST as if wycked wizdom was not the final nail in the coffin. Hooked on beubonics worked for me. Good work sharon, you made the prince of darkness your b****. As long as the US is more concerned with the business aspects of music than the actual music we are forever doomed and we can expect another 35 green day albums, and every year we can look forward to a bunch of bands with grown up boys wearing girls pants that cannot play an instrument, stealing our women and making noise that makes heterosexual males throw up in their beer.

There are a lot of great (death, grind,black metal) bands that could do ozzfest, not just emperor. How badass would it be to see Nile, Suffocation, Behemoth, Napalm Death, Obituary, etc... on the main stage at ozzfest. I think traditional metal bands are done with and should not be playing a big show like ozzfest . The fans at ozzfest want to see new bands that are true metal--not f---ing classic rock reunion bullsh--!!

89. writes:
screw all those bands except BLS I think we should get good bands like Motorhead, Anthrax , Slayer and GWAR I'm sick of all these baggy pants wearing, mallcore crap that plays every year we need some actual metal wether it be death, thrash, black, power, progressive, NWOBHM etc... but we don't need anymore crappy nu metal or metalcore C'mon

they need to get rid of all these f@cking stupid pu##y bands and get some real f@CKING METAL. GET MEGADETH,SLAYER,ANTHRAX,IRON MAIDEN, AND NOT TO MENTION F@CKING BLACK SABBATH. HOW CAN OZZY ACTUALLY THINK THIS WILL SELL NOW ESPECIALLY SINCE THERE OFFERING SLOTS TO THESE FAG MTV TYPE BANDS. AT THIS POINT IM ONLY GOING FOR BLS... R.I.P DIME

IF I HAD THE MONEY I WILL PUT IRON MAIDEN METALLICA MEGADETH, SEPULTURA, ANTHRAX, SLAYER, AND GOOD BANDS, THOSE NERDIE BANDS ON THE HOTTOPIC STAGE ARE CHEESE THE SAME BEAT ON THE DRUMS AND THE SAME NERD KIDS SCREAMING OUT THE SAME HATE SONGS BLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA.
METAL UP YOUR ASS, PUT METALLICA ON THE ROAD.

95. writes:
Not classic rock reunion stuff, I prefer the new stuff but Ozzfest is just getting alot of bands that are not metal at all, like Disturbed. Well, maybe they're a very low level of metal. I don't really like black or death metal. And I saw a video for Nile on Loud (the show) and I hated it, it was just growling and grunting. Basically just talking.




100. writes:
disturbed is good, not metal, but good. they have been there 3 times so ozzy must approve of them. ozzfest has never been a death metal show because death metal sucks and no one would come. atreyu is ok and a7x used to be ok, but their new cd is pretty crappy. i would love to see slayer at the next ozzfest, and some good classic bands. id like to see lamb of god, killswitch, all that remains, bleeding through, trivium, unearth, children of bodom, cradle of filth. F#ck death metal sh1t and f#ck emo.

105. writes:
Disturbed is cool and all but not the right band for ozzfest they don't bring the excitement like the heavier bands would and disturbed needs to stay as far away from ozzfest as the possibly can cause if ozzfest isn't careful noones gonna want to go to ozzfest there isn't goin to be the same ozzfest as there use to be everyone has to agree with me on that on......DISTURBED CANNOT GO TO OZZFEST ITS JUST NOT RIGHT......


107. writes:
Listen...you want to hear talent then actually listen to slipknot..go to some of their live shows...get a f***ing life...i've seen them 3 times and they get better every time and i think they are well worth the headlining position. I've been to my share of ozzfests...and i love metal...but i see avbsolutely nothing wrong with disturbed (maybe second stage for them would be cool) and people like slayer, priest, hatebreed, and slipknot as a headliner...f*** atreyu...i saw them open for some gay a$$ punk bands and thats where they belong...not at ozzfest

108. writes:
oh yea, and system of a down is always welcome in my books to come to ozzfest. who cares if their newer stuff isnt as heavy as the older stuff, it is still very good music and anyone who wont admit that is just a fa**ot anyway. "ohhh no, this band is on MTV, i cant be a fan anymore event hough their music is the same and they got their because they are good....im a fa**ot"...GET A f***ING LIFE PEOPLE







117. writes:
wow a hundred f***ing dumbasses saying exactly the same thing... don't get me wrong... metal well you wont find it here... your idea of metal of metal that is... its dying... look at any music station its all playing f***ing rap and pop... they have to expand and hit up the larger groups... tailoring a concert like this, to hold on to a fan base as small as this HA... go f***in bankrupt... masses rule... and metal well metal is dwindiling... how many or you are b****ing about all this and don't listen soley to HC metal.... thats what i thought... would you rather a "punk" band playing at ozzfest... or 50 cent... c'mon...
So if you don't like it STOP b****ING SHUT THE f*** UP AND DON'T GO...

119. writes:
Yeah slipknot: ), I love System and all of my friends do too. I'll admit their older stuff is better but they have talent. And Serj and Daron each have their own record label, Serj has Axis of Justice, and Daron is going solo soon. So you see they are also EXTREMELY
successful. And if every time a band was on TV or on the radio then they were sellouts or too mainstream, then every good band would be sellouts. If it weren't for TV I wouldn't like
the bands I like today, so if a band stays underground their entire career, then their not going anywhere and should just give up on their "dreams".
As for Disturbed playing Ozzfest, bad idea. And I'm glad death metal shows don't go on there, that would suck. It would be a stage full of growling losers singing about pain and crap like that. Death metal sucks, but that's my opinion. Well, not all death metal, I think Slayer is pretty good, but that's all.

ALL TRUE METAL HEADS SHOULD BOYCOTT OZZFEST THIS YEAR IF SYSTEM OF A DOWN, AVENGED 7, ATREYU AND SIMILIAR BANDS ARE BEING BOOKED BY SHARON. SHE IS TRYING TO APPEAL TO THE MAINSTREAM ALTERNATIVE CROWDS FOR MORE TICKET SALES.
B-RAD KNOWS EXACTLY SH-- ABOUT METAL. YOU THINK THAT ALL MUSICIANS DREAMS ARE TO MAKE IT TO MYV AND SELL MILLIONS OF ALBUMS AND TO NOT STAY UNDERGROUND!!!!
IF THAT IS WHAT YOU THINK GO LISTEN TO SOME SYSTEM OF A DOWN YOU MF PU---!!!!!!
SHARON OSBOURNE IS A BLEEDING C---!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I do listen to System Of A Down. God, every time someone makes a post you don't agree

Just cause I said I thought Slayer was death metal does not mean I don't know anything about music, and for thinking that you just plain don't know anything. Death metal is just a bunch of growling pot smoking drunken losers spewing out sh** about death and pain. Oh yeah, and bradisp***ed, I wasn't talking I was typing you dumb f***! And unas slayer of........ it's MTV not MYV, you're also a dumb f***. Don't judge people from one comment, grow up and act human. Learn to live with the fact that everyone has their own opinions about music and.....everything! Not everyone has to like you're death metal stuff.

f*** Disturbed, f*** System Of A Down, f*** all those sh**ty bands like that...IT ISN'T METAL FOR f***S SAKE!!! I heard 3 Inches Of Blood was going to be on the bill, good choice...Atreyu and A7X are good choices as well...I f***ing hate BLS because of the sh** him and Sharon pulled on Iron Maiden in '05. I don't think I'm the only who thinks that Cradle Of Filth should be on the bill this year because they have a new album coming out in June and they kick major ass. Disturbed and SOAD are p***y sh**..Disturbed's songs all sound exactly the same because the bald-ass lead singer can't get laid...And the f***ing terrorists in SOAD will probably anthrax the sh**. REAL metal bands (Cradle Of Filth, Meshuggah, Mastodon, Arch Enemy, Opeth, Dark Tranquility) Deserve to be in those spots, not sh**ty nu-metal crap.


127. writes:
True but this band I don't get the hype along with Audioslave there just a bit overated.
The self titled SOAD cd was alright kinda reminded of punk meeting nu-metal but that was it.
When that self pitying singer started crying in his songs oh I dont know the last 3 cds I just
lost interest in that band. Much like NIN last cd was pretty bad.
128. writes:
"Death metal is just a bunch of growling pot smoking drunken losers spewing out sh** about death and pain."
Come on B-rad, thats a pretty half assed formed opinion there, playing on stereotypes like that. Notice in that sentence you mention nothing about the actually music? Prehaps you should open you mind and ears and take a closer listen. I recommend Death, Cynic, Atheist and Necrophagist. Don't get so hung up on it just because Cannibal Corpse have stupid lyrics.
I think System Of A Down are a good band, the biggest draw-card for me is the harmonised vocals and song structures, its pretty interesting.
129. writes:
I don't hate death metal as much as I make it sound. I just hate certain stuff, like most of the music on the show Loud. Some death metal bands have stereotypical lyrics, but some are okay. And Tyler D., take some anger management classes or something, just calm down. You called System Of A Down terrorists just because they're from the Middle East, in case you haven't heard their lyrics, they are against terrorism. I know middle eastern people and they're not terrorists, racist f***. But I do agree that SOAD aren't metal (anymore) but stop trying to think that the bands you listen to are better than every other band, it's your opinion but ALOT of other people think otherwise. For all I care, shove your opinions up your a$$ with the rest of your sh**. And bradisp***ed, I wasn't judging, I was defending myself from retards like you. And you started to spaz and judged me just from reading one comment, it's called an opinion, it's not the truth.

p.s. everyone has there own f**king opinions about music and its not like your going to change the mind anyway so just chill out and listen to what u want and just let people listen to what they want no matter how f**king gay u think it is. there have been about a hundred something posts about how gay disturbed is and although im not a fan either,its just so f***ing annoying.

I'm with you plzzz god, a good one..., I love Mudvayne ALOT, but I completely disagree about SOADs new stuff, I love them either way. And about that list of upcoming to Ozzfest, I actually use to be a HUGE fan of Linkin Park, but then I just suddenly hated rap. And Crazy Town at Ozzfest, that would blow major d***. Just because they have guitars and bass people assume they're rock, but they're 100% rap.

f*** all this sh** .... ozzfest needs to get back trivium, killswitch and as i lay dying maybe throw in some children of bodom, the agony scene, 36 crazyfists, diecast and dry kill logic...and top it off with some past hard hitters such as slipknot, soulfly or chimaira.... now that would be sweet.

as for the other bands. screw ozzfest if u did ozzfest u wouldnt be able to write yur next MTV2 hot track or make yur next video for rock countdown.
or maybe everyone can go to ozzfest and boo all the sh** bands off. remember limp bizkit, at least sharon did one thing right

You know ive seen Disturbed,slayer and SOAD all at Ozzfest. Atrey and A7X as well..I care not to see them agian. It would be sweet now to see NIN, Dream Theater, Lamb of God. Ive yet to see Cradle and Dimmu Borgir..and would love to see them. Amon Amarth, In flames should be added. Black Labels not bad at all. I got to see them just as they were coming out. Fear Factory I saw them in 1999's ozzfest. Sevendust would be nice to see again.

f**k nu metal, u fags say that there should be no classic metal at ozzfest? well let me ask you who the most popular band at ozzfest ,O5 was, whats that? it was IRON F**KING MAIDEN!!!!!!!!, and who has been the most popular every other time? it was f***ing OZZY OSBOURNE AND F**KING BLACK SABBATH, SO BRING BACK THESE BANDS AS WELL AS PRIEST,METALICA,ANTHRAX,AND MEGADETH,THATS A F**KIN OZZFEST. GO MARCH UR ASSES TO SOUNDS OF THE UNDERGROUND THEN

No......old metal had their turn, it's time for nu metal. There are a few old bands I wouldn't mind seeing, but not all of them. Well it would be nice if their were maybe 1 or 2 old bands in each Ozzfest, not ALL old metal. We can't have a bunch of geazers running around up on stage, someone might break a hip.

153. writes:
you classics to need to face it... old school is dead and the new wave has come and its powerful and f***in awesome. im not saying that classic metal is bad, but it's old, and thats why everyone is looking for a new approach. and if they find it in metalcore er whatever, fine its still great music and you should accept that metal has changed. slipknot forever.
154. writes:
My thoughts exactly JoeMetal. Old Metal isn't bad it's just time for bands like Black Sabbath and Iron Maiden to move over and make room for newer stuff. Sure old metal will last a long time, but in 15-20 years or so, nu metal bands like Mudvayne, Slipknot, and other nu metal will be remembered just like old metal is practically warshipped today.


156. writes:
None of these bands wanted to stay underground ..... if they did they wouldn't want record deals ... Old Metal is good but dead let it go Nu-Metal is better i don't care what anyone says..... whats up with everyone calling Ozzy a sellout ? some one explain that to me ?!?! heres some news for ya Ozzfest just isn't for metal its for HardRock too Disturded needs to be on there as well as every other band who is going to be on there ... they got to be where they are because they are good .... you're just hateing on them because you cant be on ozzfest lay off the hateraid and drink some beer god ! you people piss me off you're the reason why Metal is where it is ..... and the reason why everyone loves Rap or Pop Punk Emo S**t .... LET IT GO JUST GO THERE TO SEE THE BAND(s) YOU LIKE DON'T PUT OTHER ONES DOWN IF YOU DON'T LIKE THEM THATS COOL JUST DONT OPEN YOUR BIG A$$ MOUTH ABOUT IT !!! F**K PEOPLE COMEONE GET REAL DOUCHBAGS !!!

this year ozzfest needs sompthing ground breaking.considering it comes once a year it relly is a huge deel. all to geather in the ozzfest trilligy we have all the owesome bands,but not at oncethis year we need good bands. if ozzy and sharon decide to have all the bands that are relly loved it will be good. the main thing is not go popy wich it wount but the good bands are what relly counts but if you pack ozzfest with all good bands that everyone likes the it will sell more and get more attention.instead of 4 bands first that nobody knows here and then one good band have all them good that would be a hit. this year bring back tool, sabbath, manson, slipknot, nin inch nails, system of a down, 2nd stage cradle of filth , trivium, mortican, godrill, dry killlogic,asilaydieing. just make this year different and relly owesome..love kasey

also if you thank ozzfest is only classic metal like priest megadeath,ironmadian, then your wrong because each of them has only prefourmed onse the ozzfest started in the 90's and so did mast all the bands that played there.,,, besides how can u mosh to iron maden

Rulin Kmadd, none of the members of SOAD were born in California. Serj and John were born in Lebanon, Shavo was born in Armenia and Daron was born in Iraq. They all just moved to LA at a young age. Although when John was 5 yrs. old he moved to Toronto from Lebanon and than to LA.

Not to be an a$$hole but Six Feet Under are a joke, Chimaira have way to much hardcore influence, Machine Head are metalcore, and Arch Enemy will never be as good as Carcass (Although some of their older stuffs not bad).

I don't follow sh**ty music fads like simple plan, black eyed peas, 50 cent, the list goes on and on. And don't take your anger out on talented musicians just because you're jealous of Chad Gray's awesome voice.

All of you need to see that emo in all of it's forms is sneaking into all types of music these days...It is what sells what is selling out on its own merit...Avenged Sevenfold and Atreyu lets face it they are a type of emo called emo-core...Everyone should get used it becauses it's not going anywhere....And as long as it continues to sell that's what we will have...Don't blame anyone but the bands for wanting to make some money to eat...If any of you were in that position you'd turn emo too...it's a sad day...that's all i'm going to say on the subject...see you in the pit
201. writes:
But emo is horrible, people listen to it because it's "cool" an "in". No one actually decided on their own that they really like this pop emo crap because all of these people have no will power and just want to fit in. If I hear someone say a band I like sucks I'm not going to stop listening to them, I don't follow fads and all of that stuff. Sure it sells but half of the reason people like pop music is because of the way the artists look, they don't even care about the music. I think alot of pop stars are hot but I don't listen to them.

202. writes:
Your point is well taken, but emo has been around for quite some time, I'm not into things because they're "in" either but reality is that for Ozzfest to be successful it has to appeal to a bigger audience...I like all forms of rock music and the new emocore metal type bands rock. They will make a good addition to this years festival. Long live emo!!!
204. writes:
When I said people listen to it because it's in I didn't mean just emo, I also meant pop, rap, r&b and all of the stuff kids are listening to now. And rap and R&B are not even music
so I don' t know how rappers are making more money than some way more talented bands you actually deserve it. Music isn't about money, but if talentless rappers make it than metal or any rock bands should be making more.
I DO hate 100% emo though, like Simple Plan and all of those whiney fags b****ing about how they haven't reached puberty yet. They're complaining about how their life sucks so much, they should try living in a 3rd world country, then they'd have actual problems to b**** about. Simple Plan (and all of North America) has no idea how lucky we are to be living here, so SP should think before the next time they b**** about their "problems".

of course old metal will always be popular because a lot of fans were around when they got started but they really shouldn't be at a show like ozzfest. just because someone was the first to do something doesn't mean they have to be fu***** hailed to all of the time.

Shadows Fall are not "real metal" as you put it, they have been infected with a fatal disease call hardcore along with every other would be thrash metal band today. Thus, Death, Black, Power and Doom metal are the ones carrying the flag of metal proudly today until this fad dies out.

Uh, why would I have to shut my mouth, I'm not talking I'm typing, dummy. And the bands you hate are terrible to you, they have fans. I'm sick of you losers listing the bands you hate, even I think the bands I hate are talented I just don't like their style of singing and/or playing. Learn to live with the fact that what you say about a band is an opinion and ALOT of people think differently. And sevenchurches, if I am ignorant than that makes you something indescribable. By the way, don't call someone a fag from reading one post, do a little thing most people do called THINKING, you'll enjoy it.

Your previous post says "alright now everyone that is saying bring back the TRUE metal, awesome u recieve a pat on the back, everyone that says sharon sucks, same for u, everyone saying disturbed is good....go kill yurself right now." So do you need to ask?
The main problem with new metal bands is they are all influncend by and have certain aspects from hardcore which seperates them from metal. I mean, we all hear them wank on about loving Slayer and co., but do we ever hear anything apart from a little watered down influence?
For me, In Flames are a good example of metal ruined by hardcore.

You think your crying is going to change ozzfest? yeah, that's what i thought.

I too am tired of hearing everyone b**** about ozzfest....new metal/hardcore/death metal/ melodic death metal and all the various hybrids are much f***ing better than most old in not just terms of guitar playing and double bass kicks .. but especially in terms of the vocals/screaming. This line up would be f***ing awesome and I don't care what any of you have to say about it.... 2nd stage headlining - as i lay dying, killswitch - still remains, the agony scene, chimaira, children of bodom, scars of tommorow, all that remains, still remains, mushroomhead, bloodsimple, darkest hour, nothingface, atreyu and trivium.... 1st - soulfly, hatebreed, fear factory and cradle of filth

ozzfest usually isn't that good and it is definitely not worth the ridiculous ticket prices. line ups filled with nu metal and core bands and rock bands. come on what happened to metal. after the iron maiden fiasco why would any big band with the capability of carrying ozzfest in ozzies absence want to work with the b**** sharon. too many problems with sharon not worth participating in tour.

the true metal fans don't get much of what they want from ozzfest. only the p***y poser kids who just got into this kind of music in the past couple of years get what they want. the only bands they have heard of are the bands on sh**ty ozzfest. spending mommy and daddys money on sh**fest. for all who wish for a heavier more underground ozzfest keep hoping because we are just falling further into the darkness. sharons sh**fest should be another disappointment.

Man everyone in here complains too much. There is nothing wrong with Atreyu or Avenged Sevenfold. They are both good live. Disturbed is ok. Imean david has a good voice. Black Label Society put me to sleep last year. But Zakk's payed his dues so his band deserves to be on there. I think you guys are just afraid of change and i think that it is hilarious. I hope that slayer, tool, motorhead, or deftones are on the main stage. it would be cool to see gwar on the second stage.

all i have to so say is f*** you to everyone who thinks that people who listen to metalcore er whatever aren't real metal fans. that's bullsh**. i think you fagets that listen to old school aren't real metal fans, what do have to say tot hat? because they're both differnt variations of metal and it's not right to accuse accuse someone of not being a metal fan, when they are. and another thing, old school is f***ing gay and those old bastards should suck a c*** and die.

Bands like Metallica I like because to me they took metal to a whole other level and I really respect them for that. I also have respect for Black Sabbath for basically creating heavy metal.

whats wrong with a couple of flashes? i agree with dearttragedy. im not a fan of A7X, but atreyu is amazing and their not emo er what its called. i think they should be at ozzfest along with COB, in flames, bullet for my valentine, lamb of god, god forbid, killswitch, unearth, slipknot, shadows fall. agree disagree lets here it.








306. writes:
so why do people have to call things or people gay. it is stupid. you cant make fun of atreyu because they are good, so you call them gay because of the way they look it sounds to me like you guys are dumb and ozzfest doesnt have to be just metal, you need variety, because tired a$$ guitar solos are boring


309. writes:
Druid, you're not worth my time. And deartragedy, exactly. Calling a band gay because you don't like their music DOES NOT make sense. Why don't you just say they have crappy music instead of commenting on their sexual preferences, or maybe you could try looking up the word "gay" in the dictionary, I don't think it will say "a band that sucks". Maybe if you do one of those things people won't think you're a kindergarden drop out.

Come on people, engage your brain enough to see that 90% of the usage of the word gay is interchangable with stupid, lame etc. and not and insult directed towards sexual preference.
I've had enough of brainless c***s on this site for once I'll sink to your level - f*** nu-metal, f*** hardcore, and especially f*** metalcore. And f*** Trivium. And f*** em all good.
A Disturbed thread gets 300 post, yet an Atheist post gets 1 (Which was me)!?!?! You stupid metalcore cumknuckles don't know sh** about the metal scene, you probably are wondering who Atheist are right now. Anyone who has even picked up an instrument should be able to tell that a band like Watchtower or Cynic has more talent than all the metalcore bands combined. Do metal a favour and f*** off.

JoeMetal, that's alot more than I wanted to read. And Pitmetal I don't think Ozzfest would have alot of Death Metal, ever.
Alot of people hate JoeMetal for having his own opinions and likes/dislikes. All of you make it seem like it's a law to like old metal, and it's not. The oldest metal I actually like is Metallica, and they're not even one of my favourite bands, not even close. What's sh** to some people is awesome to others, no one is ever going to stop me from liking what I like and those people who say "oh, this band sucks stop listening to them", you're wasting your time.

Wow, I can see by your witty responses you two hold minds of great intellect.
The fact you two neanderthals are using the term "old metal" tells me you know little about metal beyond what you see on MTV.
And dear god I hope the username skull crushing rifts is a play on words or I might just have a brain aneurysm.

Cynic, how come every time people are arguing over metal than someone always has to include MTV into the conversation? I don't watch MTV at all, about 99.9% of what ALL music stations play, to me, is pure sh** that people listen to because it's "cool". Over half of it isn't even music. In order for something to be considered music it must involve instruments and/or singing, rap, r&b, some pop, etc. have neither. That's what pisses me off, all of these kids turning into whores and "gangstas" from listening to this crap.

I may have gone overboard in post 317 but I've really had enough. If you check my previous posts I've been staying out of the mudslinging. I'm not a huge Maiden fan but at least I know they're metal! I mainly listen to 90s technical death metal and 80s thrash anyway.

well.
I believe that Disturbed is not a bad band..
But i wouldn't consider them good enough..
and as for A7x..
they are still instrumentally skilled.
Just that in the album City Of Evil they have gone soft...
Atreyu is screamo.
But they still really good.
If you try being a lil bit more open minded you'll actually like them.
and i think they should get BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE from U.K.
Well the new sh** dats being heard mostly is Metal-core.
So get with the program guys.
But what would really really suck ass.
Is if they put H.I.M.
and i will so go against Ozzfest if they EVER think about puttin My Chemical Romance in it.
I would HATE Ozzfest if they do that.
But can you blame them from bringing mainstream bands to the stage.. They're trying to get people there (bad selection of ppl may i add).
So don't be mad if you see a bunch of MTVers there.
I think this year the Second Stage is going to be better.
word.

351. writes:
My Chemical Romance would get booed off the stage if they went to Ozzfest. They're one of those bands that majorly pisses me off. They have a song about war (along with a sh** load of Pop-Punk bands) and they have no idea what war is like, I don't at all, but they have the nerve to make a song about something they've never experienced. But SOAD, one of my favourite bands, sings about war ALOT, they have the right to though. All four members grew up in third world countries so they have a mild understanding of what war
is about. Whoa.........I got off topic there. Anyway, MCR=Unoriginal pop punk band only interested in the money they make.

Ozzfest has always been good, and I mean it's pretty much about Ozzy...I think we should embrace Ozzfest. How much longer do you really think Ozzy is gonna be able to play live?! Ozzfest always turns out great. It's the crowds and atmosphere and f***ing $7 beers. It's ppl getting together for music. It's like a Woodstock turned metal. Enjoy it while it still lasts and stop complaining like a bunch of whiny b****es bc you don't like some of the bands playing.

354. writes:
first of all avenged sevenfold does not suck and anyone who listens to talented music should know that, atreyu isnt bad, and disturbed is hard rock......since when was ozzfest about metal music? its about hard rock music i dont understand how you can place any band under a certain genre.....its not like they are putting good charlotte or nfg on the line up......but i do agree bodom should be there, slayer is played out and all the lil wannabe metal heads wear their shirts and act like they are metal.......some bands that should be there are killswitch, trivium, soilwork, chimaira, throwdown, devildriver, maiden, hatebreed, and full blown chaos........BLS needs to go home, they are played out too

DISTURBED AND A7X ARE GOOD BANDS BUT THEY ARE NOT OZZFEST MATERIAL. NOW I WOULD LIKE TO SEE IN FLAMES AGAIN AND JUDAS PRIEST OR SOMETHING OF THAT NATURE.I ALSO WANT TO SEE LAMB OF GOD AND SHADOWS FALL.HOW COME BANDS NEVER PLAY TWO YEARS IN A ROW BESIDES BLS. BLS IS GOOD BUT THERE ARE A LOT BETTER BANDS. MASTADON SHOULD COME BACK TOO THEY ARE F****** AWESOME.

But as for Disturbed,I like them but i dont think they're Ozzfest material.I would'nt mind seeing A7X or Atreyu on the tour though.And we all know that BLS will be on like every Ozzfest tour from now on...I'm not complaining though.

It's true
If Slayer plays there.
the most you will see is posers.
I think Trivium is boring after a while.
Children Of Bodom is just ook.
Lamb Of God...hells yes then need to be there...
Shadows Fall... i think they get borin after a while...
I agree mostly with the bands md mentioned...
except trivium

as a tribute to the greatest metal guitarist of all time they should try and get some kind of pantera reunion with like Zakk Wylde filling in or someone like that, and why don't they try and get like Metallica or maybe AC/DC to be the headliner, and then get like bodom, Unearth, skinlab, hypocrisy, maybe Rammstein and then still have disturbed, BLS, and Avenged Sevenfold, then most people are happy no matter how heavy your taste is

Not even worth listening to. Just f***ing let Tool play Ozzfest and show you how to f***ing sing. And quit thinking you're so sweet because you listen to music that no one else will give a chance. Disturbed put out 3 decent albums, and you can only sh** on them for their success. Jealousy starts to set in because a$$ f*** bands like Six Feet Under don't get any recognition.

f*** slipknot... Stone Sour is way better and should play ozzfest this year. Mudvayne should do it again along with BLS.

F*** A7X but Atreyu would be cool...

I think if you only base the bands being good on how mainstream they are your a f***ing poser. Listen to the music, the music alone and if you like it then keep listening to it and follow the band. Don't think about if they are mainstream even though I'd like to beat the sh** out of Green Day for being so f***ing stupid. i hate all the little teeny bop's who run around thinking they are heavy metal just because they like Green Day. I like Disturbed, and I like BLS, and I like ATREYU and Avenged alot. I think this is a good way to start but also throw in some good stuff. Check out blood simple, they are gonna be the future of metal. Sharon Osbourne is a dumb c*** and needs to find her place in the kitchen where she belongs, she's stealing ozzy's fame, and not doing a good job at it. Throw the band HIM in the lineup, Ozzfest needs more dimensions and hey it's better than Jada Pinkett Smith's band what the f*** was that?

why the hell does everyone hate disturbed on this site? if you dont like them, dont listen to them. zakk wyld is sick but bls gets old after a while. suicidal tendencies is f***in sick; i hope thats not just a rumor. sharon is a b****;ozzy deserves better;a7x isnt too bad; the perfect lineup is this years mainstage plus cob, godsmack, manson, korn, slayer, life of agony, atreyu, and of corse zombie

no way, f***ing AFI, avenged and HIM on ozzfest .... this is not the lame warped tour. I wouldn't even go to that concert if it were free. Bring children of bodom, still remains, the agony scene, bloodsimple, scars of tommorow, as i lay dying (if they weren't on sounds tour), haste the day, all that remains, chimaira, a life once lost and sh** even mushroomhead, unearth or dry kill logic before those borderline sh** emo bands .... bullet for my valentine isn't all that bad either.

416. writes:
Yes, I actually enjoy some the of hardcore-emo/screamo bands (as i lay dying, it dies today, bullet for my valentine,etc.) They have modernized metal in way that it still plays homage to classic acts as well as evolved the screaming so much more. I'm really not into the love lost lyrics though. Kind of lame. Besides that i wouldn't mind seeing a few of them on ozzfest appealing to a larger audience demographic. However, I stand next to my original claim that EMO (not hardcore/emo) flat out blows. Bands like my chemical romance, saves the day, taking back sunday, hawthorne heights have no place in the ozzfest circuit this summer, and never will.






429. writes:
i really don't want to go to ozzfest this year if just sh**ty hardcore bands play. i think they need to first: find bands with good quality music and that MOST people who like "rock" (as in metal, hard rock, hardcore, etc.) like. the classics. and then have the major bands of some subgenres. having mostly screamo or metalcore will just ruin it. there's no point in arguing because people will always like different bands/music and it should really appeal to everyone.
430. writes:
Yeah, no_one, f*** Green Day! They are definetly the most overrated band ever!!! They're newer songs are way too repetative and annoying, and my friend told me their songs are EXTREMELY east to play on guitar. So, why are people giving them so much credit for doing hardly anything? I'll tell you why, because their music is "in" right now. And as for Emo, it blows. In order to get into an emo concert you must have a VERY low self-esteem
and a razor to cut your rists with. Basically, Emo's are whiney losers who cut them selves for pleasure, and think they're 12 years old but are actually in their 20s. They all should just end their miserable lives right now, they basically say they will in their songs.

I don't care very much for Disturbed. We need some awesome bands to play, though, like Dimmu Borgir and OTEP! Otep just came out with another CD, they need to come back and promote it! Other bands I would prefer, though, would be like Godhead, Spineshank, Borknagar, Devildriver, Meshuggah, In Flames, and probably a lot more.
I hope this Ozzfest is awesome.

the person above me doesnt know what he is talking about at all.Metal actually puts on a show and plays good music cause unlike emo theres more then one style of playing.
Theres a Band called Kandles at Nine thats tryin to get in to Ozzfest they arent that bad,but they better have some kickass bands this year.
Not big on disturbed their music is kind boring and most of it sounds the same.
Slipnot being there would be cool id like to see them before they break up again.

UGH!- Atreyu!!!-ewww... gross. f***, before you know it, it's going to be a show for little high school girls that believe MCR, Green Day, The Used, and AFI are just "tho f***in' hardcore man!" Let's hit ozzfest up with Dark Throne, Chimaira, Lamb of God, Black Dahlia Murder, Emperor, Slayer, Arch Enemy, or even Machine Head... Just something other than f***in' hip kid rock. ewww gross. haha, Van Warped 2 Tour with a splash of Coachella. Now isn't that just grand metal?- Ha, no!!!!!! I was actually hoping that this year would be cool and worth spending money on... i guess i was wrong. f*** it... I'm not even gonna go. Sounds Of the Underground 2 sounds like a pretty good idea. At this point Ozzfest doesn't sound to good...

I hope u guys know that once u leave one big tour such as OZZFEST and go for a more cheaper and/or suitable tour such as SOUNDS OF THE UNDERGROUND, then that tour will also explode into something that u guys really hate. And that's the introduction of heavy mainstream bands. I'm telling ya, it's gonna be an ongoing process that will never stop. So just remember, that while u think u guys r safe from "MAINSTREAM" hard rock, u r really never safe from it b/c it's always gonna be around, as long as ppl keep pouring money into it. That's just how it is, that's mainstream for ya. U just can't stop it.
Just wanted to let u guys know that.
