Florida’s underground death metal institution TAMPA DEATH FEST is back for its eighth year.
The two-day event returns to Tampa’s legendary Brass Mug on September 4-5, once again delivering a concentrated dose of old-school brutality and regional underground talent.
Wisconsin death metal veterans VIOGRESSION will headline opening night, while Florida legends NASTY SAVAGE will close out Saturday’s festivities.
The lineup also includes LEPROSY, GANGRENESIA, COATHANGER ABORTION, MUST NOT KILL, SAPRAEMIA, and several rising names from across the U.S. underground scene.
For death metal fans, it’s another reminder that Tampa remains one of the genre’s spiritual homes nearly four decades after helping shape extreme metal history.
Doors and ticket information are available now.
