More about the headliners of the festival

Among the headliners are the surviving members of Pantera, who announced a reunion tour earlier this year. The surviving members of Pantera, Philip Anselmo and Rex Brown, will be backed by Ozzy Osbourne’s lead guitarist Zakk Wylde and Anthrax drummer Charlie Benante.

The heavy metal band, formed by the late Abbott brothers in 1981, last performed two decades back in 2001. While guitarist Dimebag Darrell passed away in 2004 during a live concert, his brother Vinnie Paul passed away in 2018 due to heart disease.

Also among the headliners are heavy metal band Slipknot, which was formed in 1995. The band, known for its aggressive style of music and distinctive masked personas, will also separately hit the road for their KnotFest. They rose to popularity after the release of their 1999 eponymous debut album.

The band won a Grammy for their song Before I Forget in the Best Metal Performance category in 2006. Their most recent single includes The Chapeltown Rag. The band's lineup features percussionist Shawn Crahan, drummer Joey Jordison, and bassist Paul Gray.

Slipknot recently released their seventh full-length album, The End, So Far, in September via Roadrunner Records. The album boasts twelve tracks and lasts for 57 minutes and 31 seconds.
