Perth’s epic Stormrider Heavy Metal Festival is now just three weeks away.
The annual event celebrates all there is to love about of Power, Thrash, Speed, Prog and Traditional Heavy Metal and will be taking place on Saturday, May 23 at The Civic Hotel.
Since it’s announcement in November last year, there have been some significant line up changes.
Melbourne’s Vanishing Point and Sydney’s Avarin are unable to attend and have been replaced by Harlott and Dethlahem.
Indonesian power metal band, Lord Symphony have also withdrawn from the festival citing visa and political issues – Please see a video statement from the band here.
The festival will not be replacing Lord Symphony at this late stage, instead the local Perth bands who will be opening the show will have extended sets. More local metal, it’s a good thing!
The festival has also lowered the price for the final weeks to $20 pre sale and $25 door tickets. All pre sale tickets qualify for the special prize pack too.
The Stormrider 2015 line up is as follows
LORD
Silent Knight
Harlott
ALKIRA
Anarion
Espionage
Dethlahem
Morphica
4 Horsemen perth
