PBS-FM Metal Benefit Gig
Saturday 26th of April, 2008
PBS-FM and SCREAMING SYMPHONY present a night of Progressive and Power Metal at the third (not so annual) heavy metal benefit gig: SCREAMING SYMPHONY LIVE FROM THE CORNER HOTEL on SATURDAY 26TH of APRIL. With the abundance of international tours recently, here’s YOUR chance to support Australian heavy metal bands with all profits on the night helping to keep PBS-FM on-air.
Over the ANZAC DAY long-weekend, SCREAMING SYMPHONY brings NSW Metal favourite LORD (ex-Dungeon) for their first Melbourne show since the release of their epic new album ASCENDENCE. It’s been just under a year since their last Melbourne performance and for those inexperienced in the allure of heavy metal – fast songs with big catchy choruses and an abundance of guitar shred – LORD will do their best to convert you!
Long-time PBS-FM members CRIMSONFIRE join the fray with their majestic, fantasy-laced metal that sits heavily between Iron Maiden and Dream Theater. With a new album shredding its way to punters later in 2008, CRIMSONFIRE bring their enigmatic entertainment direct to the stage.
On the lookout for new acts? The future of heavy metal in Melbourne looks bright (or should that be dark?) with the youngest group to perform: VAMPORA. Musically this is like a dragon’s skull being crushed by a battle axe which roughly translates to Dragonforce being met by Rhapsody Of Fire and Symphony X in a dark alley. Warriors be warned!
The second new act to emerge is the Female-Fronted Progressive Escapades of DIVINE ASCENSION. Epic, technical songs and a dynamic vocalist combine to form an orchestral and progressive masterpiece reminiscent of Dream Theater, Within Temptation and To-Mera.
Giveaways and merchandise will be available and MORE special guests are to be announced soon.
Screaming Symphony Live from the Corner Hotel is brought to you by PBS-FM, OzProg, Modern Invasion Music, & Riot!
Tickets:
At the door ONLY. $15 ($7 for PBS members)
