D-Tox Rockfest 2012 announces full line-up, featuring Bad Religion, Dream Theater, Gwar and more

by Tyler Munro

Montabello, Quebec’s D-Tox Rockfest is a big festival in a small town, and the line-up for this year’s festival seems to follow suit. With a diverse—and some would say peculiar—list of headliners ranging from Bad Religion and Korn to Dream Theater and the Exploited, the seventh annual Rockfest is looking to keep its tradition as Quebec’s longest running punk and metal festival alive with its largely Canadian roster of bands.

The full line-up is available over at the Rockfest website, but other bands listed on the bill include Gwar, No Use For A Name, Protest the Hero, Voivod, The Planet Smashers, Sublime with Rome, Against Me!, As I Lay Dying, the Devil Wears Prada and many more. Like last year, both Friday and Saturday nights of the festival will close out with a cover band, with the Rage Against the Machine tribute act Wake Up and the Black Sabbath worshipping Holy Sabbath set to take the stage. Tickets are on sale now, with a Weekend Pass starting at a pretty modest $55.
