Yesterday rounded off the last of the Bad Ass Weekend festivities this year and really brought the beginning of the punk/metal/grindcore calender in Houston for this year. This event in it's third year, was brought to us by Jaron Sayers and JC Newton and boy did it go off with a bang! With some of the headliners including the likes of Napalm Death, Who Killed Spikey Jacket?, and Goverment Issue this line-up was pretty much garenteed to sell out their respective venues.
Yet another batch of bands have been added to the UK's most notorious Rock and Metal festival. Amongst the new batch of bands added are Killswitch Engage, American Head Charge, Skindred, Emmure, Upon A Burning Body, The Pretty Reckless and Crazy Town (no, we are not joking). These bands will be joining the varied rooster that includes Linkin Park, Fall Out Boy, Bowling For Soup, The Offspring, Aerosmith, Avenged Sevenfold, Thy Art Is Murder, Suicide Silence, While She Sleeps, Status Quo, Trivium and Dying Fetus (seriously, we swear this is a real line-up).
