Saskatoon Screamfest III (NIGHT #1)

Saskatoon Screamfest III - NIGHT #1 featuring headliners LAVAGOAT! Special thanks to Vangeli's Tavern for facilitating our first opening night - welcome to the Saskatoon Screamfest family! Full lineup for Friday, October 27th:

Lavagoat - LavaGoat has long been a staple of the Saskatoon metal scene, bringing fans a unique blend of many heavy influences ranging from Doom to Death to Thrash. Now, coming into their 10 year anniversary year, LavaGoat shows no signs of slowing down. They released their 6th disc, "Ladies From Hades", in September of last year, a concept EP containing "...five hymns to wicked women [that] build a temple for the chosen to worship in.". Reveling in what is being hailed as their most doom-instilled release yet, LavaGoat has enjoyed cult acclaim throughout Canada, and beyond. Not many bands have a way of breathing new death into each album like LavaGoat does, making each album and EP a unique exploration of a different style or artistic edge. An example of this would be their 2014 live-in-their-jam-space disc Weird Menace; a single track containing 6 horror themed songs. These Doom filled Easter eggs are what keeps followers of LavaGoat thirsting for more. We are insanely excited to share this Saskatoon institution with you, and to share in the excitement of the 10th year running!

Scythra
Regina’s Scythra have only been representing Saskatchewan’s capital Regina since 2014, but in 3 years they have managed to become a band that is known for their vicious style, and powerful live performances. Slamming synchronized riffs become technically proficient odysseys, forever glued in place by the robotic booming of the drums. Scythra comes to us inspired by groups like The Oracle, and Cannibal Corpse; yet they are treading a path wholly their own, and are seemingly on the cusp of further success and acclaim.
Wasting no time, Scythra released their debut EP ‘Chaotic Eradication’ (2014) during their first year together. It was incredibly well received by the local metal beat, and quickly jumped to Saskatoon where they have enjoyed playing on a few occasions. Their anticipated follow up ‘Human Cesspool’ (2017), which was welcomed into eager ears just this past March, has not only snagged the attention of Saskatoon Screamfest; but the local metal community, and shows much promise for the coming year. 2017 will be the first year that Scythra joins the Saskatoon Screamfest roster.
Check out Scythra’s shiny new album ‘Human Cesspool’, but if you like it as much as we do, make sure you pickup a copy for yourself!
