The annual New England Metal and Hardcore Festival set to take place 4/14th, 15th and 16th, 2011 @ THE PALLADIUM IN WORCESTER, Massachusetts has just confirmed Brooklyn, New York's BIOHAZARD.
FROM NEW ENGLAND METAL FEST 2011 PROMOTERS:
Reunited metal-core purveyors Biohazard will make their New England Metal and Hardcore Festival debut this year.
“It's been years since we've played anywhere in New England - 15 years with the original Biohazard, so the show will be off the hook for our old school friends,” said guitarist/vocalist Billy Graziadei. “I'm looking forward to playing in front of those people who have never seen Biohazard before but have heard the stories from their older brothers or sisters about the shows back in the day. I'm looking forward to finally getting Biohazard back to New England with the ORIGINAL lineup!”
The band plans to treat fans to a set full of Biohazard classics, and possibly a preview of some new material that will be featured on their upcoming spring release.
“We'll play some new songs, but it's been a while since we played so there are a lot of old songs people want to hear,” Graziadei said. “Regardless, it's gonna rock!”
