Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival 2011 - Disturbed, Godsmack, Megadeth, Trivium
On May 8th of this year I had the pleasure of seeing Godsmack headline the first ever Welcome to Rockville festival in Jacksonville Florida--It would turn out to be the most incredible concert I've ever seen and Godsmack, headlining a bill featuring 20 other rock and metal bands, would prove the strength of their first album in the new decade, The Oracle.
Our tendency to slough off music and artists at the beginning of each decade to make room for the next generation has actually proven beneficial for Godsmack. The Oracle shows that this band, who have survived changing musical trends in the past, have lost none of their ability to continue to grow musically while at the same time maintaining a sound that is unique in its power and aggression, a sound that is distinctly Godsmack
