The dates are set, Memorial Day Weekend 2013. The venue is now secured…it's at the former location of Sonar, basically the home of MDF the last few years and now the organizers of the Maryland Deathfest have confirmed the full lineup, and I have to say, the headliners are some of the biggest in the history of the yearly festival. Down, The Melvins, Converge, Carcass, Rotten Sound, Ihsahn, Venom and many many more have been confirmed for the weekend. Here is a full rundown of the lineup:
