Yesterday, Motorhead was confirmed as the special main stage guest this year for Mayhem Fest. As well as Motorhead, a second side stage sponsored by Sumerian Records featuring Sumerian acts Upon A Burning Body, I The Breather, one more band to be announced (It looks like it's going to be Periphery, but I'm not 100% sure), and a local, unsigned band for each show. Personally, I'm excited to see Motorhead for the first time and could care less about Upon A Burning Body and I The Breather (who I just saw last week opening for August Burns Red and wasn't impressed by). Sumerian could have picked much better bands for their stage. Hopefully Periphery is on there to make it a bit better (though I have heard they may be on Summer Slaughter as well, we'll have to wait and see what festival their on). Anyways, this what the 2012 Mayhem Fest lineup look like as of right now.
