ACTIVEDescription
Bongzilla takes the stage at one of heavy metal's most revered annual gatherings — Maryland Deathfest XXI. The legendary stoner doom metal outfit from Madison, Wisconsin brings their crushing, riff-drenched sonic assault to Power Plant Live! in Baltimore, joining a ferocious four-day lineup that reads like a who's who of extreme metal royalty. With a sound built on earth-shaking low-end frequencies and hypnotic, weed-soaked heaviness, Bongzilla's set is a must-see moment for fans of the genre's most uncompromising side.
Spanning May 21–24, 2026, Maryland Deathfest XXI is the ultimate pilgrimage for extreme metal devotees. Alongside Bongzilla, the bill features legendary acts including Kreator, Destruction, Pig Destroyer, Death Angel, Macabre, and Whiplash — a murderer's row of thrash, death, and doom that will leave the Power Plant Live! grounds absolutely decimated. Whether you're a first-timer or a veteran of the fest, this four-day pass delivers an unrelenting, immersive metal experience unlike anything else.
Power Plant Live! in Baltimore's Inner Harbor district provides an electric urban backdrop for the chaos, with multiple stages, die-hard fans from around the globe, and an atmosphere thick with camaraderie and brutality in equal measure. The 4-Day Pass ensures you won't miss a single crushing moment of one of metal's most iconic annual events.
