yes, another Fest thread. here's the copypasta from teh -space...
--------copypasta--------- Auditory Assault Festival is the second festival coming to you from the same guys who organize the annual Maryland Deathfest in Baltimore, MD.
The first Auditory Assault took place at the end of 2006 in Baltimore, but since then we've decided to resurrect the name and have a 2 day event in New York City on the weekend before Maryland Deathfest. The primary focus of Auditory Assault is to provide numerous bands playing MDF a chance to play a kick ass event in New York City as well. We're not attempting to put this on the same level as Maryland Deathfest and expect to confirm roughly 15-20 bands, half of which will likely be bands playing MDF that are looking for more shows.
DATES: May 16 and 17, 2009
LOCATION: Club Europa 98 Meserole Ave (at the corner of Manhattan Ave) Brooklyn, NY 11222
Currently confirmed bands for Auditory Assault:
BRUTAL TRUTH (New York) LETHAL AGGRESSION (New Jersey) GADGET (Sweden) MISERY INDEX (Maryland) SAYYADINA (Sweden) CROWPATH(Sweden) PIGSTY (Czech Republic) TOTAL FUCKING DESTRUCTION (Pennsylvania) ENTRAILS MASSACRE (Germany) JIG-AI (Czech Republic) KILL THE CLIENT (Texas) DEFEATIST (New York) MARUTA (Florida) COPREMESIS (New York) ROTTEN SOUND (Finland) SULACO(New York) MAN WILL DESTROY HIMSELF (North Carolina) -------- end_copypasta---------
so i guess they're going to announce another couple of bands before calling it solid. this looks like a lot of fun... and it isn't just aching to be re-named "MDF Jr", or something.
edit 02/11 : updated confirmed bands per AAF space page

Earthworm, are you going to this or MDF?

i think i want to see who else gets on this before deciding. MDF has pretty much become the Godzilla of US Grind fests, & i want to see if AAF turns into King Kong... or Gadzookie.
/i hated Gadzookie. //and another thing why could Gadzookie fly, but Godzilla couldn't? WTFMANGBBQ-ookie ///MD is a lot closer, too... that may be a factor

Most of the bands I really want to see at MDF are not playing this, MDF it is for me.

Unless The Endless Blockade is playing I'd rather go to MDF.

I dunno what looks more tasty.... the line up or the costume.
I've never been to New York. I'm afraid of terrorism.

Brit-, you live dangerously. that's HAWT! you can handle the terrorism, because it's audio terrorism. ride your dinosaur there, and wear your marker-fight warpaint.
Will, what is your schedule looking like? Would you like to come up to AAF with us, and merch out your TLAL love? we'll make room for you. should be a fun mini-tour. we're planning on... May 15th, in Philly with TFD & Infernal Stronghold (show will be promoted as a Decibel Magazine presents..." event (Thanks to Mark at dB); then AAF on the 16th; Baltimore on the 17th @ Nowarehouse with Disassemble and who knows who else

yeah i know. the fact that it's a little closer makes it somewhat ok in my backwards logic. and if it's cheap enough, then it makes it even more ok.

The fact that you wouldn't have to get a hotel room to attend this makes it cheaper than MDF by default.
