This past weekend, the three-day Inkcarceration Music & Tattoo Festival went down in Mansfield, Ohio, drawing some 75,000 fans — many in prison-themed clothing — to the Ohio State Reformatory, a.k.a. the main location of The Shawshank Redemption.
Slipknot, Pantera and Limp Bizkit headlined over a stacked lineup including Megadeth, Volbeat, Lamb of God, In This Moment, Flyleaf With Lacey Sturm, Motionless in White, Coal Chamber and many more.
Photographers Lexie Alley, Steve Thrasher and Nathan Zucker were on hand to capture much of the action — see some of their standout shots below.
