2] Slayer's "Christ Illusion" [Aug 8, 2006]. Nuff' said, and I can't wait. And personally I liked 2001's "God Hates Us All" - RABIDLY.

*MDF IV Pt. 2 - ABOUT AUDITORY ASSAULT FESTIVAL
So the staff of Maryland Deathfest has decided to organize a second festival. Why you ask? Perhaps the biggest reason is that many people seem to have a difficult time waiting 1 year for their annual travel to Maryland Deathfest and always tell us that we should do another festival, so we've decided to do so.
It should be made clear that Maryland Deathfest will continue to be our biggest event with the same agenda as previous years, attracting some of the best foreign bands in the scene, many exclusive first ever appearances and possible reunions. The intention of Auditory Assault is to showcase more of the best death/grind bands in the US scene with maybe a few surprises thrown into the mix. At the moment we are preparing to have this as a 1 day event, but we do have the possibility of making it a 2 day event if we determine that's a good idea. Time will tell.....Stay tuned for the first band announcements!
