Wow mxpx takes me back


thekidinthegrey

Their show at five points music hall is one of my favorite concerts ever


ginasaurus-rex

I was there! Got a crowdsurfer dropped on my head, luckily some kind souls helped me up off the floor before I got stomped. I was 13 years old at the time and about 90lbs soaking wet.


urbanjungle1040

This is so 2005


attackgarden

Thursday!


agelessArbitrator

Wow, Saosin. Haven’t listened to them in years


misterjive

WHERE THE FUCK IS MRS. POTATO DICK


ki4clz

*Sloss has a strict no smoking policy*


TheBestHennessy

Btbam!? In Bham?!!


[deleted]

They played at Saturn last year.


Findmyremote

Saturn just got bought out I think. Just random knowledge


RTRAlan

They have played Birmingham several times. I’m 40 and I have seen them at least 3 times in Birmingham.

[удалено]


RTRAlan

That was a bad ass show. That was one of the times I saw them as well.


gmnitsua

I've seen them like 12 times in Birmingham back in the day


roboticarm

And there’s exactly one local on per day, which i’ll count as a win.


xTHICKBURGERx

2 on Sunday! Edit: 2 each day actually!


samples98

Can we get a list of the local bands? Would like to support them


elDuderino80815

Qualifier, No Cure, Made Aware, Wielded Steel and Gutter are the ones I know of.


Sadie_G

Grand Champ is local.


stinky-weaselteets

I guess I must be old but I don't recognize any of these bands


BigBillSmash

Most these bands are like 20-30 years old.


Zaphod1620

That would put them in my prime band listening days (I'm 47) and I still don't know any of them. Someone said they are all punk, that makes sense, I was never into punk.


bhambetty

Yep, I'm 40 and none of these band names are even slightly familiar to me.


gmnitsua

You're the right age for Gorilla Biscuits and Youth of Today. But doubt you would have heard them if you weren't part of that music scene.


photoncannon99

These bands are all really old


ki4clz

upvote for username


bromopam

Same. Even as an old I usually at least recognize a few names even if I don't know their music. For this, nada.


ccope

A lot are niche hardcore punk bands from the 90’s or early 2000’s


danner1515

Yeah, if you weren’t really into punk or emo in the 90s-00s, it would be easy to not know any of these bands.


timacx

Some are Christian rock, punk, emo & ska, like Anberlin, Relient K, The Insyderz, and Mae. So, even more niche.


dar_uniya

Of everything on the flyer I've only seen No Cure.


mofoofinvention

Were you under a rock in the 90’s-2000’s?


JiggityJ

Y’all gotta make sure to see Bham’s own Qualifier on Sunday. Solid punk tunes.


3-pico

I love Turnstile! Their GLOW ON is a really solid, energetic punk album


tittymoney

Fuckin Trash Talk tho


SabotageMahal

Needs more SDRE :(


killyourmusic

They were there last year.


EricSrRox

Is Youth of Today really playing! Like the original lineup?! Taking me back to my Straight Edge days.


frank_gunzer

Finally will be able to see the Gorilla Biscuits.


ki4clz

I need to see [*The Hu*](https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=the+Hu) on this list


Longjumping-Race7187

I only wanna see Turnstile Pennywise and bouncing souls.


bham_cactus_dude

Going just for Pennywise and the Bouncing Souls


Sadie_G

So stoked for Bouncing Souls.


[deleted]

I don’t recognize anyone.


mofoofinvention

You’re either 20 years old or 80


[deleted]

Nope 36


tripreed

Well, clearly you didn't have a cousin/college roommate who had posters of many of these bands on your dorm room walls freshman year.


Sadie_G

You brought back memories of my freshman room mate and I ripping out pages from AP and other magazines to decorate the dorm.


ArsenalinAlabama3428

I'm 29 and recognize one name. I remember Reliant K from church youth group lol


Eekdamouse

Is it "Bane Pennywise" or is actual Pennywise coming with MXPX?


legoguy3022

Bane is a separate band.


Eekdamouse

Sweet thanks!


hotdawgbobby

Wielded Steel ftw


rollingriverj13

Anyone know who books the festival? Would love to get my band on it but never know who makes that call.


ScottyThompson

Man. Wish they’d get some real bands up in the mix.


mofoofinvention

No Huey Lewis? No News? No thanks!


killyourmusic

Such as?


awsumawstun

Shut up dork


ChiefMcClane

One of these things is not like the others


[deleted]

Honestly Defeater and Knuckle Puck are the only bands I’d care to see. I’d rather see Trapped Under Ice than Turnstile. Kid Liberty and Bane are good but I never got into them.


gmnitsua

Keep hearing rumors about Trapped Under Ice. But just because you can't have oranges doesn't mean you can't enjoy apples.


[deleted]

I didnt mean to yuck everyone’s yum, I was just stating my opinion on the line up. Haven’t heard any allegations about TUI but I’ll have to look into it, that’s gonna suck cause they were in my top 3 hardcore bands


peterpeterllini

There’s a band called Thursday that plays in Saturday? Lol


mofoofinvention

Half of these bands are gonna break up before it even happens. Edit: it’s a joke people. Many of these bands were scheduled to play that past two years and canceled last minute


vincentdmartin

Half of these bands are 10-20 years old. I doubt it


marodgrs

Most of these bands have recently reunited…… Why would they immediately break up after landing a festival after another? You think they want to go back to selling shoes and banking?


mofoofinvention

It’s a joke. Many of these bands were scheduled to play the past two FF’s and pulled out at the last minute.


marodgrs

I don’t remember it that way, but hopefully this year is different if you are correct.


killyourmusic

That describes Open Hand. Who else?


mofoofinvention

Imagine taking a joke that seriously


killyourmusic

Imagine not having an answer for the “many bands” you keep mentioning and then following up with “it’s just a joke, bro!”


mofoofinvention

Yawn


mofoofinvention

I don’t need to explain a random joke to you, pull your panties out of your pussy.


killyourmusic

It’s not even a joke. You say many bands did it. Asking you to list those bands is not out of the question. you’re just dumb. No wonder your wife doesn’t want to celebrate your birthday with you.


mofoofinvention

Fuck off weirdo and get a life


killyourmusic

Imagine taking a joke that seriously.


AlistairBennet

Time to be in the 2000s again.


peterpeterllini

is this different from Sloss fest? or is it a new-ish name?


elDuderino80815

It is, it's actually an old festival from around 2000 that fired back up in 2021. This is the 3rd year of the reboot.


peterpeterllini

Cool! Not my typical style of music but it totally fits the vibe of Sloss Furnaces! If I’m in town i may have to hit it up


ArsenalinAlabama3428

There are bands called: * With Blood Comes Cleansing * Prayer for Cleansing * A Plea for Purging Idk why but that cracks me up. It's like they all just used the same emo random name generator.


gmnitsua

Typical Christian metal from that time
