Last year, metalheads all over the city lamented the absence of Heavy Montreal. But there was a promise, the promise of a triumphant return of the festival in 2018. And return it did, like the rising phoenix from the ashes of a burnt out viking longboat (or something metal like that).
With headliners like Limp Bizkit, Marilyn Manson and Rob Zombie the festival has the big names lined up and ready to go. With more progressive acts like Gojira and Allegaeon, 80’s throwbacks and even a few comedy bands (looking in your direction Ultra Vomit) and the return of the wrestling spectacle that is Heavy Mania it seems like there will be something for every type of metal fan at Parc Jean Drapeau this coming weekend.
Sarah and I went through the lineup of each day and picked 5 acts that we are extra excited for. Check out the Saturday edition of this series here.
So listen now to find out who made our list for Sunday at Heavy Montreal and enjoy the show!
NOTE: This podcast was obviously recorded before the news had broke that Avenged Sevenfold had to cancel their performance, which is a huge bummer since they were one of the acts I was extremely excited to check out.
