New England Metal and Hardcore Festival 2011 Lineup

It's that time of the year again for New England metalheads(including myself), the annual New England and Metal Hardcore Festival is taking place April 14-16 at The Palladium in Worcester,Massachusetts. Here is the lineup for all 3 days, there are more bands to be added to Friday and Saturday's lineup in the coming weeks and as always, a few bands will drop off. Without further ado, here is the lineup.

*next to bands I think are worth seeing for each day(there are a few bands that I have never listened to mostly on Friday and Saturday's lineup, so if there is no mark doesn't necessarily mean I don't like them.)

Quick thoughts on the lineup.
Thursday: This lineup is gross. Only a couple of bands that are any good, most bands are complete shit. Attack Attack! as a headliner is just plain sad.

Friday: A lot of hardcore bands, some good and some bad. Not a bad lineup overall, but not enough to get me to attend.

Saturday:This lineup is amazing. Just about every band is amazing. I am extremely excited to see Lazarus A.D,Revocation,Son Of Aurelius,Dying Fetus,Born Of Osiris and The Ocean for the first time. Throw in some of my favorites such as Hatebreed,Between The Buried and Me,Skeletonwitch,Job For A Cowboy and 3 Inches Of Blood and you have a hell of a lineup. I am stoked for this day of the festival, this will be the only day I attend this year.
