On Saturday, October 11th two of the fall’s biggest metal tours cross paths for one night only at the Fillmore Silver Spring for a show so big it can only be called Fillmageddon! Machine Head, Children Of Bodom, Epica and Battlecross are on tour together but The Black Dahlia Murder and Suicide Silence tour was looking to play the area on the same day so rather than have competing shows they’re all playing at the Fillmore! We’re so excited around here for this show that we’re going to give one of you lucky readers of this site a free pair of tickets to this epic show. To enter: leave a comment on this post telling me which band you want to see the most. At 5pm EST this Friday, August 22nd, a winner will be chosen at random (using Random.org) from all valid entries to receive two tickets to the show! Be sure to use a valid email you check regularly so I can contact you if you win. Don’t worry, I won’t add you to any spam lists or sell your info or anything sleazy like that. If I haven’t heard back from the winner in 24 hours another winner will be chosen at random. If you can’t wait to see if you win, or the contest is already over when you read this, then you can get tickets from right now for $29.99 from Live Nation here.
Robb Flynn’s Machine Head will be headlining Fillmageddon as they tour to support their upcoming new album Bloodstone & Diamonds. Finland’s neo-classical melodic death metal band Children Of Bodom always brings the shredding riffs and solos and this show will be no exception. The Black Dahlia Murder is still touring to support their excellent release last year, Everblack. Suicide Silence is still going strong with Eddie Hermida (formerly of All Shall Perish) taking over vocals after the death of Mitch Lucker in 2012. Simone Simmons has a beautiful voice that you can’t ignore when Epica is playing and openers Battlecross will get the pits started early with their thrashy melo death riffs and mega fun live show. That’s one hell of a line up! Now check out these killer tunes by the bands and tell me in the comments which band you want to see the most!
Machine Head – Locust
Children Of Bodom – Trashed, Lost & Strungout
The Black Dahlia Murder – Goat Of Departure
Suicide Silence – You Can’t Stop Me
Epica – Storm The Sorrow
Battlecross – Never Coming Back

Machine Head for sure. The Blackening is an all-time great metal album and every record since then has been fantastic as well.

Definitely The Black Dahlia Murder, haven’t seen them since Summer Slaughter in 2011 when they ripped my face off. I’m overdue!
Machine Head, definitely.

I want to see machinehead the most, but all the bands are great. I’m taking my buddy Doug, who will be home from being in the marine corps weeks before the show. But he wants to see suicide silence the most.
Battlecross…always seem to miss them

The band I want to see most is Machine Head.
Machine Head, the first concert I’ve been too and was amazing
I’m stoked for Epica! I think they’d be pretty amazing live.

Now I have to see if I can fit this in with all the other shows, trips and festivals I’m already committed to this fall.

It’s been a while since I’ve seen them so….Machine Fucking Head
Machine Head. I’ve been really into them for almost 10 years now and have never seem them. This is the first time I can remember them coming to the area while I’ve been capable of getting out to the show.

Machinehead, only bc they’re the only big name on the list that I haven’t had the chance to see yet. But without Bodom and BDM, I wouldn’t care to introduce my gf to her first metal concert with this tour.

Machine Head. Haven’t seen them since they played the 10th anniversary show in Philly for Burn My Eyes.
Machine Head because I haven’t caught them live yet. Battlecross were awesome last time saw them.
