The 2-day, 20-band festival that is The 2011 Metal Suckfest is set to rear its ugly head at NYC’s Gramercy Theatre beginning next Thursday, November 3rd with a pre-game show featuring black metal greats Mayhem. The fest will then officially kick-off the following day with performances by Municipal Waste, God Forbid, Cynic, Obscura and many more (see full line-up below). The crew over at MetalSucks.net have also announced a “Meet and Greet Swag Bag Giveaway” contest, where one lucky winner for each day of the fest (Thursday’s pre-game is not included) will be given a bag full of metal swag and allowed early entry into the venue to meet with the bands backstage before the show, as well as hang out and watch the sound check. To enter, all you have to do is buy tickets in advance online or at the venue (drop a ballot in the “enter to win” box at the box office window).
