Day 5 - Phoenix, AZ

by CompoundJustin

Mayhem rolls into Phoenix for the hottest day of the tour thus far. We know as Phoenix does that 100ºF plus weather won't stop anyone from coming out and raging with us for a full day of metal. We catch up with the boys from As I Lay Dying and stop by to say hi to our friends at the Backstage Artist Lounge. 


Also, each day on Mayhem we pick a special military veteran to receive the Mayhem Metal of Honor. Be sure to stop by the Metal of Honor tent in Festival World; you can show your support for the troops in a number of ways.

Day 4 - Boise, ID

by CompoundJustin

Boise, Idaho is always one of the more crazy shows on the tour. No amphitheater, no seats, just pure insanity. The pits were going by the time The Devil Wears Prada went on and didn't let up until after the fireworks and Slipknot's last song. Mistress Juliya catches up with Corey Taylor and we stop by the US Army tent.

Day 2 - Mountain View, CA

by CompoundJustin

Shoreline Amphitheater in Mountain View, California is one of our favorite venues. The amphitheater is awesome, the people are insane and this year was no exception. Bay Area metallers packed the house to watch The Devil Wears Prada, Motorhead, Slayer, and Slipknot on the main stage and that was only part of the day's insanity.


Anthrax rocked the Jagermeister stage and there were people out in force from the first opening bands all the way to the end of the show. Mistress Juliya met up with our friends at Zippo and the guys from Zippo check in. We also sat down for a very intimate interview with Corey and Clown from Slipknot, look for clips from those in the coming weeks.

The Revolver Magazine Mayhem Fest Cover Reveal

by MetalJohn
Revolver Magazine is debuting their annual Rockstar Energy Mayhem Festival issue with a special cover reveal. This year's cover features an amazing illustration by Greg "Batman/Spawn" Capullo saluting the headliners of the 2012 tour!

“I draw superheroes all the time,” artist Greg Capullo says, shrugging off the heavy task of designing the awesome cover of Revolver's annual Mayhem issue. “It came down to coming up with one of those classic clashing-titans images.” The thing that made it even easier for him, though, is that he’s a lifelong metalhead. Follow the link below to see what's featured in this stunning cover!
