A radio station in Boise, Idaho has won the hearts of metalheads everywhere by leaking the majority of the Mayhem Festival 2012 lineup.
The station, 100.3 The X, announced the initial lineup for the traveling Summer festival earlier today via their official Facebook. The lineup, as posted by the station, is as follows:
Slipknot
Slayer
Anthrax
As I Lay Dying
The Devil Wears Prada
Asking Alexandria
Whitechapel
High On Fire
The station also mentioned plans to reveal another “huge” headliner on March 5. Many have rumored this mystery band to be Motorhead, but no confirmation can be made at this time.
Stay tune to UTG for further lineup announcements, as well as tour and ticket information.
