We knew Metallica was headlining.
Now we know the rest of Sick New World’s 2025 lineup.

Among the bands who will be performing at the heavy music fest’s return on April 12 at the Las Vegas Festival Grounds: Linkin Park with their new singer Emily Armstrong, rockers Queens of the Stone Age, goth punks AFI, Swedish prog-metallers Meshuggah, industrial metallers Ministry, alt-rockers the Flaming Lips, reunited sludge metallers Acid Bath, punk rockers The Hives, their fellow Swedes Refused on their farewell and dozens more, representing death metal (Cannibal Corpse, Carcass), black metal (Mayhem, Cradle of Filth), thrash (Exodus, Testament), noisy outliers (Tomahawk, Melvins) and plenty more.
