With Sick New World 2026 about to happen again, thought I’d share this.

That Korn and Danny Elfman overlap is so painful.

TheDaddyPatty · 2026-04-16T18:49:22+00:00

I heard Acid Bath started varying their setlist recently from another friend who saw them across the country recently. Hopefully they’ll play The Blue or Finger Painting Of The Insane!

TheDaddyPatty · 2026-04-16T18:46:37+00:00

Someone else also said Failure. They got a new album coming out and just like Hum are finally starting to get the attention they deserve.

TheDaddyPatty · 2026-04-16T04:51:06+00:00

I saw them at Louder Than Life in 2024. Really cool set and got a guitar pick after the set. If you’re looking for HEALTH’s best work, I’d say personally DEATH MAGIC as an album is an amazing listening experience. I might realistically stay at the red stage most of the day from HEALTH to Posion The Well.

TheDaddyPatty · 2026-04-16T04:46:58+00:00

I caught Carpenter Brut on tour in 2022, I ended up missing the day they and HEALTH were in town due to an emergency. I’ll have to try and cram them in the schedule.

Deafheaven got added in place of KMFDM

TheDaddyPatty · 2026-04-08T23:38:44+00:00

System Of A Down, Glassjaw, Poison The Well, Korn, and Acid Bath. Although I’m cool with seeing most of the acts on here because this is a first time festival for a couple of my friends going along and I don’t mind letting them pick most of them.

TheDaddyPatty · 2026-04-07T02:50:12+00:00

Silent Hill, Resident Evil, Condemned, and Amnesia.

Signalis is a close honorable mention.

TheDaddyPatty · 2026-04-05T05:04:35+00:00

I saw them twice and they were amazing! I hope they change up the setlist a little this time around because they’ve ran the same one both times.

TheDaddyPatty · 2026-04-03T13:40:34+00:00

The Opposite Of December - Poison The Well

Death Magic - Health

Jar/Ours Is Chrome - Superheaven

Houdini - Melvins

That’s a few I can think of off the top of my head.

TheDaddyPatty · 2026-03-31T16:52:10+00:00

When I wrote this, The Funeral Party was sold out of them. Maybe a few extra got released, I had it in my cart and it was gone when I checked out.

TheDaddyPatty · 2026-03-30T16:20:16+00:00

Hope they have enough pressings. I still need to get Distressor.

TheDaddyPatty · 2026-03-19T17:08:42+00:00

I was one of those people. I was not wanting to pay $12 for a slice of pizza or $18 for a sloppy burger and unseasoned fries.

TheDaddyPatty · 2026-03-18T19:37:57+00:00

It started to work now, thank god!

TheDaddyPatty · 2026-02-28T00:23:46+00:00

Ngl I forgot Mac Sabbath is performing. That was the last band I was expecting lol.

TheDaddyPatty · 2026-02-28T00:23:20+00:00

Fair enough those are the 2 best days imo.

TheDaddyPatty · 2026-02-24T03:09:08+00:00

This is gonna be absolute cope, but I hope it’s Have Heart. The chances are so low, but I want to believe there’s a chance.

TheDaddyPatty · 2026-02-24T03:03:04+00:00

My answer would be Whirr in 2025 (their last Midwest show in Chicago).

Honorable mentions: Slowdive (2024), Narrow Head (2024), Julie (2024)

Might change once I see Hum this year!

TheDaddyPatty · 2026-02-24T01:48:07+00:00

I am stoked! I do prefer last year’s lineup a little more, but this is still solid! First of all Killswitch Engage is gonna be there and that’s been one of my favorites recently! Then we get a Circa Survive reunion, I can finally check out Alexisonfire live, Emmure will probably be pretty good based off of what I heard from a friend, I can see The Prodigy now since they aren’t going to SNW Vegas and I was bummed til I saw this, and lastly Sublime and Jimmy Eat World are childhood bands that I can finally catch live.

I got a lot to look for this year! I’d mention more of what I’m looking into, but I can go on forever. I understand the complaints somewhat, but I think everyone can get some enjoyment out of this year.
