riot fest

Riot Fest 2022 had hits (as in songs) and hits (in the mosh-pit).

When the music stopped and everybody shuffled toward the exit, avoiding the guy tripping out in the grass, I heard a chant of “Riot Fest sucks!” And this time, I agreed.

At Riot Fest this year, MIA and NIN brought the noise.

This year marks the tenth anniversary of Riot Fest. To celebrate, Multimedia editor Patrick Reynolds shares his thoughts on the nine selected bands and albums, presented in order of how far he was able to make it through the album before turning it off.

Riot Fest 2013 proves that punk's not dead, nor ever will be.
