The 6th annual ROCKSTAR ENERGY DRINK MAYHEM FESTIVAL took off with a bang in San Bernardino on Saturday! You can check out a brand new highlight video on the official Mayhem YouTube page now, here: http://youtu.be/SL4naGlw13A
ROCKSTAR ENERGY DRINK MAYHEM FESTIVAL is all about safety first and foremost, and we are taking the proper precautions to insure the utmost safety for fans of hard rock and heavy music who will attend the festival. The festival will offer three (3) 20×20 Shade Tents to keep people out of the sun. We will have an army of emergency medics and emergency medical vehicles directly onsite and on hand in the case that anyone has any needs for medical attention at all from the heat. We always urge fans and notify them accordingly on the official Mayhem website for fans to pace themselves. Please hydrate by drinking lots of water, “wear sunscreen” and think logically and with common sense to enjoy the day and get the full festival experience.
Google Play Music is featuring exclusive videos of ROCKSTAR ENERGY DRINK MAYHEM FESTIVAL‘s 2013 headliners and newcomers talking about some of their “Favorite Things.” From FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH discussing Pantera, to ROB ZOMBIE talking about his Devil’s Rejects soundtrack star Terry Reid, to MOTIONLESS IN WHITE on Bleeding Through and much more! Further celebrating the festival’s kick off this weekend, Google Play Music is also offering albums from the bands on this summer’s bill at a special discounted price, including the brand new AMON AMARTH record. Go here to get into all of the above! Check out everything at this link.

- Last week, MACHINE HEAD announced Jared MacEarchern as their new bass player just ahead of this year’s ROCKSTAR ENERGY DRINK MAYHEM FESTIVAL.
In a quote, the band states, “It is with great pride and excitement that MACHINE HEAD announce Jared MacEachern as their new bass player. Some fans might remember MacEachern from 2007’s The Black Tyranny Tour, playing
with his previous band Sanctity. MACHINE HEAD, challenged to find a fill-in bass player for the North American tour after an injury sidelined their then-4-stringer, also found themselves in need of someone to sing harmony with
singer/guitarist Robb Flynn.”
- BATTLECROSS have released a brand new lyric video, which includes live footage from their performance at Orion Music and more in Detroit, MI, exclusively at RevolverMag.com! Fans can stream the video HERE: http://www.revolvermag.com/

Ibanez Guitars has announced their signing of BATTLECROSS bassist Don Slater stating, “Don’s high level of musicianship is a breath of fresh air in a genre where bass playing has grown stale. His SR basses allow him to get the
sound he needs to cover his vast array of bass techniques, from funky slap bass to precision speed metal playing and everything in between.”
- The SCORPION CHILD track ‘Polygon of Eyes’ has been chosen as Single of the Week at iTunes! Download the track FOR FREE at http://bit.ly/scorp-child-sotw and catch the band this summer on Mayhem headlining the Sumerian Records stage.
