Alberta, Canada's LOUD AS HELL is ready to unveil its most stacked lineup to date with its 2023 edition featuring JUNGLE ROT, NARCOTIC WASTELAND, INCITE, NECRONOMICON, THE CONVALESCENCE, ARRIVAL OF AUTUMN and lots more (full lineup listed below).
Being held from August 4th to 6th at the Dinosaur Downs Stampede
Grounds in Drumheller, AB, this year's festivities see the return of American
and Mexican bands joining the lineup along with artists from across Canada
performing for the three-day open-air event.
Highlights for this year's lineup witness the return of groovy
death metal Americans JUNGLE
ROT to Canadian soil to headline the closing night on August
6th in support of their latest album "A Call to Arms" released last
year on Unique Leader Records.
Toledo, OH's THE
CONVALESCENCE is one of the USA's unstoppable tour de
force, touring Europe in 2022 with Chelsea Grin, and Carnifex plus an upcoming
tour in Japan in 2023 with Exhumed and Defiled along with their latest
single "No
Survivors" ft. Scott Ian Lewis of Carnifex that has
fans demanding more and more.
North Carolina's Narcotic
Wasteland's (founded by ex-Nile guitarist Dallas Toler-Wade) festival
appearance comes as part of the band's first cross-Canada tour as they will be
supporting their forthcoming third studio album in 2023 on Mega Force Records.
Phoenix, AZ's INCITE,
now close to 20 years into a career where everything was earned and nothing was
taken for granted, the band bridges the gap between multiple crowds across
various metal sub-genres. As renegade disciples of trailblazing architects like
Pantera, Slayer, Sepultura, and Machine Head, INCITE raise
the torch for trend-killing and hipster-smashing metal. The band’s fifth album,
Built to Destroy released in 2019 (Minus Head Records), is a visceral, urgent,
voracious distillation of modern metal, with reverence for the past, produced
by Steve Evetts (The Dillinger Escape Plan, Suicide Silence) and mastered by Zeuss
(Rob Zombie, Hatebreed).
One of Canada's longest-running blackened death metal bands
hailing from Montreal, Quebec, NECRONOMICON's
career spans over 30 years since it was first formed in 1988 by founding
guitarist and singer Rob
“The Witch” in the deep, northern part of Quebec's Fjord
of Saguenay. Since then, the band has carefully released each full-length
without haste, allowing them to perfect every nuance before unleashing their
sonic assaults upon the masses.
Canadian metalcore titans, ARRIVAL OF AUTUMN, hailing from Grande
Prairie, AB, are LOUD
AS HELL alumni and return to co-headline opening night on August
4th in support of their new album "Kingdom Undone" being released on
Nuclear Blast this coming May.
Weekend Passes (including camping) are available at https://www.loudashell.ca/tickets

What the press is saying:
“Western Canada’s loudest
heavy metal festival brings fans to town more known for dinos than drum solos.”
– CBC Calgary
“Loud as Hell – one of Canada’s top underground metal festivals
– 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 you’ll meet. What else do you need? If you’re
a metalhead fan, mark it down for next year because this is a concert you don’t
want to miss.” – Blackfalds Life
“Headbanger alert: Loud As Hell festival to ramp up the volume”
– Calgary Herald
“Nevermind the bug spray and sun tan lotion, as August
approaches Drumheller residents should stock up on earplugs.” – Calgary Herald
“Loud As Hell returns to the southern Alberta city for its
seventh year and as its name implies, will rock the city to its core.” –
Calgary Herald
“Loud 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.” – Hanna Herald
