The 2025 Sick New World festival roster, which includes Metallica, Linkin Park, and many other fantastic acts, was just revealed. One of the bands will be performing for the first time since 1997. The festival will mark its third iteration after making its debut in May 2023 in Las Vegas, Nevada. The Las Vegas Festival Grounds will host it on April 12. Other performers include Daron Malakian’s Scars on Broadway, Three Days Grace, Down, Mudvayne, Machine Head, Arch Enemy, Queens of the Stone Age, Evanescence, Ministry, Gojira, 311, and numerous others. Acid Bath, a New Orleans sludge metal band who disbanded in 1997 following the passing of bassist Audie Pitre, will reunite during the festival.
