It seems the organizers of the 2012 Rockstar Energy Mayhem Festival are tipping their caps to the organizers of this year’s Summer Slaughter.

The Slaughter, which blows Mayhem away this summer, was put together by the Sumerian folks, and now, Mayhem’s adding a Sumerian Stage.

The Sumerian Records Stage will boast Upon A Burning Body, I The Breather, and one more act, to be announced at a later date.

There will also be contests all over the U.S. for unsigned bands to win opening spots on the Sumerian Records Stage at the festival.

Also today, organizers also confirmed the addition of Motorhead to the lineup.

Commented Lemmy Kilmister: “Well, we’re used to mayhem in this band, so it’s kind of a family tradition! Bring it!”
