New additions have been added to Chaos fest 2012 taking place at Scruffy Murphy’s bar in Birmingham. The Friday headliner has now been announced and it is the awesome A Forest Of Stars.
The second day has already got us doomheads salivating with Witchsorrow, Parole, Lifer, Dead Existence, Desert Storm, Undersmile, Gods Of Hellfire, and Grimpen Mire. Who knows who else will be added to the Friday, but with weekend tickets at a bargain £8 this is a must go to if you are in the area. Make sure you get there early we’ve heard a sneak preview of the new Grimpen Mire and it’s going to blow minds.
