If you happen to have a bit of cash laying around and are free from June 15-17, you might want to consider taking a trip to lovely Clisson, France. Why, you may ask? Because the 2012 Hellfest bill may very well be the greatest lineup of rock and metal bands ever assembled on the planet Earth.

As if we thought 2012 couldn't get any better for tours and festivals, Hellfest just blew everyone out of the water. The three main headliners for the festival are Megadeth on June 15, Guns N' Roses on June 16 and Black Sabbath capping it off on June 17. Headliners of separate stages throughout the three day occupation of the devil's playground with feature King Diamond, Machine Head, Lamb of God, Cannibal Corpse, Entombed, Children of Bodom, Amon Amarth, Behemoth, Dimmu Borgir, Biohazard and the recently reunited Swedish hardcore legends Refused.

Those artists aren't enough of a reason to hop on a plane, you say? Then how about adding Motley Crue, Within Temptation, Hatebreed, Napalm Death, Suffocation, Darkest Hour, August Burns Red and Trivium to the bill?

After you wipe the drool off of your keyboard, head over to the official Hellfest website to see EVEN MORE bands who may very well burn France to the ground in this ridiculously awesome three-day fest.
