SLIPKNOT‘s very own Knotfest — the most cutting-edge heavy music festival in America — has revealed additional bands for the October 24-26 destination festival held at San Manuel Amphitheater & Campgrounds in San Bernardino, California.
Already featuring some of the biggest names in metal — SLIPKNOT, DANZIG, FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH, VOLBEAT, OF MICE & MEN, ANTHRAX and more — the Knotfest lineup has now added FEAR FACTORY, NAPALM DEATH, SATYRICON, AMEN, OTEP, PRONG, IMMOLATION, ATTIKA 7 and more. The new additions will perform on the Extreme Stage 005 powered by Kinetik Power and Ernie Ball.
As previously announced, SLIPKNOT will close Stage 001 both Saturday and Sunday, with unique sets each night, featuring brand new music and an entirely new stage set and experience.
All Knotfest ticket purchasers will receive a digital copy of SLIPKNOT‘s forthcoming album, to be delivered on release date.
