THE SCENE

Heavy MTL is North-America’s premier destination heavy music festival and takes place in Montréal, Québec, Canada. The first edition of the festival took place in June 2008 and saw the likes of Iron Maiden, Mötley Crüe, Disturbed, Three Days Grace, Dethklok, Anthrax, Type O Negative, Mastodon, and many others shred their way through an intense two-day celebration of heavy music. After taking a break in 2009, the 2010 edition of Heavy MTL saw 42,500 faithful bang their heads in unison to the likes of thrash legends Slayer and Megadeth, as well as Rob Zombie, Korn, Alice Cooper, Lamb of God, and many more!

    PLEASE bring some more NWOBHM bands over – Diamond Head and Girlschool went down very well! How about Angel Witch, Tygers of Pan Tang or Tank? Also, Accpet should be touring in promotion of their new release by then – they would be a crowd favorite!

    I’d like to see a folk/viking metal band on the bill like Arkona, Heidevolk or Ensiferum.

      You had me at the words “folk/viking metal band”. Now am compelled to do some research on these artists.

    Please let there be Suicidal Tendencies/Infectious Grooves…Too bad Trujillo is now with Metallica
