I love Maryland Deathfest, and being from Philadelphia, it's quite easy for me to make the yearly pilgrimage to the (un)holy land. I understand that not everyone lives as close as me, however, after this new round of band announcements that were just made, even if you live in mother Russia you have to find a way to get to MDF this year. I don't care if you have to fly, boat, swim or get swallowed by a giant whale that transports you across the ocean…get. to. MDF. this. year.
