HEAVY SA 2017

Due to huge success of last year's event and to popular demand the 'HEAVY S.A. FEST' returns celebrate and showcase the wealth of talent in the South Australia's heavy music scene.

This year we have another great line up of heavy South Australia talent for you all to devour:

The mighty IN:EXTREMIS have chosen HEAVY SA as the launching pad for their return and they are bringing a whole new level of their grind, blast, groove madness to the stage, playing a mix of their classic tracks pleasing both the old and new school metal fan. Expect more thrashing death carnage from Truth Corroded they destroy the stage before heading off overseas to showcase their material once again to a much wider audience. The death metal onslaught that is Beyond Mortal Dreams will bludgeon all with its straight to the throat brand of brutal devastation. Formed from a deep wound of grief, Funeral Moon (armed with the legendary Matt Skitz on the drums) will obliterate with their relentless black metal attack - prepare to DIE!

Add to this killer line up: the Hardcore Noise destruction of A GHOST ORCHESTRA, the Crushing power and groove of local favourites SE BON KI RA, the Cyber / industrial fused modern melodic death metal of long time Adelaide metallers OCTANIC, the barrage of symphonic, black tech death savagery that is IN THE BURIAL, the melodic metalcore of ARCADIA, the all-out slam death metal carnage that is Seminal Embalmment and we have got ourselves a god damn heavy metal party ... and we're only half way there.

This year HEAVY SA 2017 also brings you the hyper energetic heaviness of ICE ON MERCURY, the sludge violence of IRON WORZEL & SWAMP LUNG, the hard rocking drive and aggression of THE ONE WITHIN & BORN OF DUST, the expansive progressive heaviness of SEDULOUS ROUSE, the sound tsunami of extreme metallers I PROTAGONIST, the hard hitting FREEDOM OF FEAR and the new unique metalcore leanings of I,ICARUS.

So there you have it, 19 of the states finest heavy bands crammed into 12 hours of non-stop music.

Last year we all proved together that an event like this would work, so this year let's prove we got the biggest set of metal balls in the country and raise your horns for your home grown!!!
