Saskatoon Screamfest III (NIGHT #2)

Saskatoon Screamfest III is confirmed for Saturday, October 28th, 2017; and will feature headliners Untimely Demise! Special thanks to Louis' for continuing to support our main event! Full lineup for October 28th, 2017:

Untimely Demise - Untimely Demise has been playing their powerhouse style of death/thrash metal to Canadian audiences since 2006, when the band was created by brothers Murray and Matthew Cuthbertson. Turning some heads with their debut EP “Full Speed Metal” (produced by Glen Drover – formerly of Megadeth) in 2009, Untimely Demise followed up their debut with 3 full length studio albums over the years (2/3 being produced with Drover). Over the years they have toured Canada extensively; and in 2014 toured the UK, Germany and Belgium with Massacre. Most recently they have celebrated their 4th release, the acclaimed album “Black Widow” (2016). Untimely Demise has opened for such critically acclaimed acts as Razor, Kataklysm, Goatwhore, 3 Inches of Blood, Anvil, and many more; as well as receiving high praise from metal media such as Metal Hammer, Decibel, Terrorizer, and others. Reviewers on invisibleoranges.com, a website and blog spot for the world of Canadian metal today, say that ‘Black Widow’ is “… easily their most varied and accessible work to date, finding an impeccable balance between blinding speed, classic heavy metal dynamics, and the searing guitar work of Matt Cutherbertson…”. “Black Widow” is available at http://untimelydemise.bandcamp.com .

Agony Spawn
The name Agony Spawn has become known in every corner of the Saskatchewan metal scene, where the groove/thrash band has been reaching ears since 2010. By combining aspects of old-school metal with their adrenaline-drunken take on what metal is today, Agony Spawn puts on the kind of show you can’t look away from – the headbanger’s finest inspiration. Taking notes from bands like Dying Fetus, Gojira, and Lamb of God; this group is always ready to turn the crowd on its end, and have some fun.
After sowing their seeds with their two EPs, ‘Metal Vitality’ and ‘Engineering Obliteration’ (2010, 2012); Agony Spawn released their first full length album ‘Demonstration of Evisceration’ (2014). The momentum from this most recent release has yet to die down, as they continue to be a highly sought-after band in Saskatchewan. Their resume is always getting more impressive, most recently having announced that they will be opening for British heavy-metal giants Diamond Head and Saskatoon’s New Jacobin Club at the Capitol Music Club on September 30th. Agony Spawn has also frequently enjoyed the pleasure of headlining shows for a bevy of Saskatoon locals; bringing their loyal followers, and high intensity to any venue.
Don’t miss night #2 of Saskatoon Screamfest III on Saturday, October 28th at Louis’, where Agony Spawn will play as direct support to headliners Untimely Demise! We are happy to bring Agony Spawn into the Saskatoon Screamfest family, and can’t wait to see what they have in store for the future. Screamfest III is still a while away, but ticket availability will be announced soon – and for now, Agony Spawn’s recent video of their new song “Infectious” will have to do:
