Coal Chamber and Gemini Syndrome have dropped off this year’s installment of Louder Than Life.

Both acts were removed from the Louisville, KY festival’s lineup in an update confirmed yesterday Wednesday, June 10th. Neither band has publicly addressed the change so far, though it’s worth noting guitarist Meegs Rascón is a member of both groups.

In their place, festival organizers added Dead Poet Society, No Resolve, and Freeze The Fall to the bill.
