LINE-UP:
SLIPKNOT
Without a doubt, Iowa masked men are one of the most anticipated gangs in our country for many years. And what better way to debut in our country than by bringing your own festival! Even though the band has lost two of its original members [Joey Jordison and the late Paul Gray], the band headed by Corey Taylor pisará suelo azteca buscando demostrar que los cambios no han afectado en nada y que con su nuevo disco, ‘.5: The Gray Chapter’ under his arm, the wait of his thousands of fans was worth it.
MEGADETH

Dave Mustaine and his Megadeth It comes with changes to its lineup, adding drummer Chris Adler [Lamb of God] and Kiko Loureiro [ex-Angra] who were also part of the recordings for the band's next album that will be released later this year.
HIM
Finland, fertile land for metal is also the cradle of HIM y su llamado ‘Love Metal’. La banda liderada por Ville Valo viene de un cambio de baterista y su regreso a México se dará poco más de un año después de su última presentación en nuestro país y pocas semanas después de su entrada al estudio de grabación para trabajar en el sucesor del ‘Tears on Tape’ [2013]
LAMB OF GOD
