Slayer, Disturbed, Marilyn Manson, Rob Zombie, And More To Play The First-Ever Chaos AB Festival

The U.S. has its festival plate full this summer, between Rocklahoma, Sonic Temple, and Warped Tour. But Canadian audiences also need some love, too, and now it looks like residents near the west coast are going to get it via the first-ever Chaos AB Festival, taking place this summer in Alberta, Canada, on July 26th and 27th.

The festival is launching with a bang, too, with the first day featuring Slayer (playing their last Alberta show ever) and Disturbed, and the second featuring Rob Zombie and Marilyn Manson on their Twins Of Evil 2019 tour.

The other bands featured on the fest as of now include:

Further details for the fest can be found at its website.

This festival will go down between Slayer's next U.S. tour leg and their final trek this fall, which is rumored to have Primus as an opener, whose frontman Les Claypool recently said in an interview, "So it looks like we’re confirmed, we’re gonna play the last, the very last run supporting Slayer’s very last tour, Primus is…It’s starting at Madison Square Garden and ending at The Forum, that’s the rumor.”
