Sonic Temple ‘s 2026 edition is coming. Going down May 14-17 in Columbus, OH, the Danny Wimmer-presented fest is Ohio’s biggest music festival, happening across 5 stages and 4 days. Set times were recently revealed, and now we’re figuring out who we most don’t want to miss. We’ll definitely be sticking around for big headliners Tool , and My Chemical Romance , and big sets by Megadeth (on their farewell tour), Dethklok , Public Enemy, Lamb of God , and more, but some of the most appealing parts to us are the stages that were curated specifically to our taste in one metal subgenre. Here are five exciting, legendary death metal bands that we’re especially loking forward to .
Carcass
Cattle Decapitation
Dying Fetus
Napalm Death
Suffocation
