I'm a little detached from metal these days, so I don't know who a lot of the bands are, but the bands I do recognize look like the same type of bands that have always been on summer slaughter
Based on the context I'm reading, people are mad that it isn't a pure trve death metal lineup? But summer slaughter was never a pure death metal tour to begin with
2008 will always be special to me, but you're really gonna look at previous line ups and say the one they just announced stacks up? The current line up doesn't match in style or size of bands on the bill. People are upset because the return of "the most extreme tour of the year" is just a VoM tour with more openers.
If it's a cost thing, I get it, but you're dragging down the value of the brand "summer slaughter".

Dude probably believes Ivermectin cures COVID so I'm not surprised he thinks this is a solid lineup.

I'm probably telling on my self with how out of touch I am, but VoM and Gideon are the only bands I'm familiar with on the new lineup, so maybe it really does suck idk haha
I went to all three of those SS tours. Still a bunch of deathcore bands on all those lineups which I guess was kinda my point
Have you ever seen him? Gotta be a Proud Boy
Ten56 is ok. They don't have much of their own style, though. Kind of like Knocked Loose, but for harder aficionados.
Brand of Sacrifice is sick as balls, but not as consistent. Kind of like Vulvodynia, but not as unique or vibrant.
The rest IDKWTF, probably ok. VOM exactly does not interest me since the new vocalist and lack of originality with their compositions, that's probably the biggest detraction for me.

I just googled the guy and
Dude looks like he runs the sleaziest and nastiest bar downtown
This is the guy that books your band on a Tuesday night, gives you 50 tickets and makes you upfront his cut.

Can anyone even read those names? The only one I can make out is ticketspin.

The line at the bottom is sponsors if that's what you're talking about. Metalblade, NB, Sumerian, indie merch etc.

I see the Landis family isn't alone in this regard
The line up in question, for those who are wondering and don't want to google:
Huge fan of "This Band Announces on May 20th". Preordering my tickets now.

Progressive metal and politics
"Preordering my tickets now" was decent but I prefer their older stuff.

I’m assuming the Chaos & Carnage tour basically picked up the slack when the Summer Slaughter series started dropping the ball.
Here’s the upcoming lineup (I’ve got tickets):

I liked Veil of Maya live (2015 summer slaughter), and I would say that was the beginning of the decline in tradition of legacy bands on the lineup, but yeah this is so much worse.
