"Pairing giant guitar riffs with crushing drums, Weedeater has persisted across five full-length albums and multiple tours around the globe. Goliathan was released in 2015 and fans have been waiting for the follow-up with bated breath." - The Void Report.#rpmfest2023

There was blood, and maybe a few tears, too, but more than anything, it was sweat that marked the earliest years of Savannah, Georgia’s Black Tusk. Formed in 2005, the band welded together what they called “swamp metal.”.#rpmfest2023

A body of work that culls from various styles weaved together into what Massachusetts-based punks A Wilhelm Scream appropriately call “A Wilhelm Sampler," Lose Your Delusion finds the accomplished rock quintet at its most daring, experimental, and cohesive. #rpmfest2023

Following up their East Coast dates with Pantera and Lamb of God, Australia's bastard sons of grind King Parrot are finally returning to RPM Fest since the first edition in 2014 and are ready to destroy the stage as only they know how. @kingparrotband

"Altered Pasts is a chaotic, varied thrillride that pulls masterfully from the worlds of mathcore, post-metal and shoegaze in a way that feels cohesive, but, perhaps more importantly, fun." - Maximo David @ Boolin Tunes. #rpmfest2023

More than a barrage of stark noise and earthen sludge, Rebreather creates glorious, winding songs that allow dissonant, harmonic tones to soothe before they strike, drumming that builds and then batters, and vocals that display a powerful, shimmering vulnerability. #rpmfest2023

Jeopardy isn't not here to impress anyone. They're not here to raise the bar. They're not here to be innovative. They're here to drink beer and thrash. #rpmfest2023

Formed in 2016 as a studio project, it became rapidly apparent that High Reeper was meant for the stage. Originally rooted in modern stoner metal with a nod to classic heaviness, their sound is driven by pounding rhythms, thick guitars and soaring, screeching vocals. #rpmfest2023
