Remember when Behemoth said they couldn't do Mayhem Fest? I know, huge bummer! Well today, Mayhem Fest announced their replacement as well as one more band, and if you can't figure it out by the title, well then…
Taking Behemoth's place on the Musician's Institute stage will be biker-rock band Attika 7, fronted by Evan Seinfeld formerly of Biohazard, and also featuring Rusty Coones, whom you may recognize as "Quinn" from Sons of Anarchy. Rusty is a really big guy so in the interest of not getting my ass kicked, I will refrain from any negative commentary about the band. If you haven't heard of them, here is a sampling:

Also, Scorpion Child have been added to the Sumerian stage. I think these guys will go over great with the Mayhem Fest crowd:
