Comments NEMHF founding father/bearded wonder Scott Lee: “We are very excited to launch the fourth edition of Mission Quest to Metal Fest and have this tour as part of the festival. I think it’s a great mix of hardcore and if this tour comes to your city make sure to be there! Also make sure to check out Cruel Hand’s new 7″ (Born Into Debt, We All Owe A Death) released through Closed Casket Activities and Alpha & Omega’s new CD (No Rest, No Peace) released from Bridge 9.”
