Napalm Death, Repulsion, Sinister, Monstrosity, and Organ Dealer to crush Nevermore Hall
The countdown to Maryland Deathfest 2026 has officially begun, and things are getting loud early. Organizers have announced a special pre-fest show set for May 20th, 2026, at Nevermore Hall in Baltimore — a perfect way to warm up for the chaos ahead.
The MDF 2026 Pre-Fest lineup is nothing short of savage, bringing together:
Napalm Death (UK) — the godfathers of grindcore return to deliver another set of politically-charged sonic annihilation.
Repulsion — cult legends whose influence can still be felt in every blast beat ever recorded.
Sinister (Netherlands) — one of Europe’s longest-running death metal forces, ready to unleash old-school Dutch fury. Haven’t got US artist visas for a couple of years, but hopefully can manage it in 2026?
Monstrosity — Florida death metal veterans who helped shape the scene from the ground up.
Organ Dealer — modern grinders carrying the torch with blistering speed and surgical precision.
Tickets go on sale today at 12 PM EST, and if past years are any indication, they’ll vanish fast.
Grab yours at deathfests.com/mdf-tickets — and prepare for one hell of a warm-up before the full Maryland Deathfest 2026 carnage begins.
Baltimore’s about to shake again. You’ve been warned.
