Are you ready for the Rockstar Mayhem Music Festival? Oooh, tough question, I know. This is one of the hardest, baddest, most intense festivals of the year! If only there was a way to … try it out. Like a musical litmus test, to see if you can handle this much Rock and Roll…

There is! Download this FREE nine-song playlist, featuring Rob Zombie, Lamb of God, Five Finger Death Punch, Hatebreed, Winds of Plague, 3 Inches of Blood, In This Moment, Norma Jean and Atreyu!

I’d like to take a moment, purely on a tangent unrelated to this article. Five Finger Death Punch is an AWESOME name for a band. I have my doubts about the name Atreyu – wasn’t that the warrior kid from The NeverEnding Story? What kind of metal band names themselves after a pre-pubescent boy in a loincloth?

Anyway, back on topic: You’ll need an iTunes account to download the playlist – and the special download code you’ll find on the page we linked to up at the top of the article. Don’t have iTunes? There’s a handy link on this very same page, and the software is as free as this playlist. A couple of downloads, some clicky-clicky action, and you’ll be rocking out in no time!

Only then will you know if you can handle the Mayhem mix.
