What the press is saying:
“Located an hour and a half east of Calgary is the town of Drumheller, Alberta. With a population in the neighborhood of 8000 and existing smack dab in the middle of Canadaâs desert and dinosaur country, itâs not a place one would immediately associate with any sort of metal scene, let alone a big-ass outdoor metal fest. But thatâs where youâd be wrong. Going into its 11th year, the Loud as Hell Festival is set to roll on August 4-6th with the likes of Narcotic Wasteland, Jungle Rot and Incite headlining three days of metallic fun featuring 40 or so bands, including The Convalesence, Gorgatron, Necronomicon, Untimely Demise, Eyes of Perdition and more.” – Decibel Magazine
âWestern Canadaâs loudest heavy metal festival brings fans to town more known for dinos than drum solos.â â CBC Calgary
“What’s more metal than the badlands? Drumheller, AB, is known for being the dinosaur capital of the world â but it’s also the home of the Loud as Hell festival, an event celebrating none other than the loudest music known to man (and, by proxy, prehistoric reptile).” – Exclaim!
âLoud as Hell â one of Canadaâs top underground metal festivals â was a metal family reunion. If you walked around the grounds, where tents covered the landscape like flowers, you would experience concert goers laughing, hugging and just enjoying the moment. The music played non-stop and the people were some of the best youâll meet. What else do you need? If youâre a metalhead fan, mark it down for next year because this is a concert you donât want to miss.â â Blackfalds Life
âHeadbanger alert: Loud As Hell festival to ramp up the volumeâ â Calgary Herald
âNevermind the bug spray and sun tan lotion, as August approaches Drumheller residents should stock up on earplugs.â â Calgary Herald
âLoud As Hell returns to the southern Alberta city for its seventh year and as its name implies, will rock the city to its core.â â Calgary Herald
âLoud as Hell has celebrated eight years in the Badlands to date, with acts from all over the world-shattering the peace and quiet of the hills in a camping and music extravaganza.â â Hanna Herald
âDrumheller with its dinosaur bones is the site of the annual Loud as Hell heavy metal festival Friday through Sunday. Dozens of the heaviest bands known to Man will be taking the stage, many of them Canadianâ â Gig Cityâ
