The organizers of the annual Maryland Deathfest, which will take place next year from May 22nd to 24th at the Sonar in Baltimore, MD, have announced the addition of the following bands to next year’s lineup: BOLT THROWER, ENSLAVED, MARDUK, ABSU, VICTIMS, BIRDFLESH, THE RED CHORD, ROTTEN SOUND, DEVOURMENT, KEEP OF KALESSIN, SWALLOW THE SUN, TRAP THEM, CATHETER, AGENDA OF SWINE, PRETTY LITTLE FLOWER, COMPLETE FAILURE, and HERO DESTROYED.

They also posted the following update: “What better way to welcome in the Halloween weekend than with an extensive list of bands that were recently confirmed for MDF? We actually expected a few more bands to be included in this announcement, but sometimes things take a bit longer than expected. We’ll follow up with another announcement of a few bands as early as next week, and that will also signify the end of the booking process for MDF 2009.

We apologize to those who were expecting tickets to go on sale earlier, but we aren’t able to set a ticket price until all bands have been confirmed. Tickets will definitely go on sale on Friday, November 7th, so check the website then.”
