For all of you wondering what this featival is all about, here is the official statement: “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! ”
