En Route To Heavy MTL Returns In 2014; Expands to Ottawa, Quebec City and Saguenay

Dungeonworks Productions and Evenko are back with a vengeance for 2014 with their third En route vers Heavy 2014 presented by Galaxie. Over the last two years, local Montreal bands have battled it out for winners such as 2013’s Of Temples and Death Lullaby, plus 2012’s winners Dark Century and Hollow to share the stage among some of the world’s top metal talents during Canada’s largest metal festival Heavy MTL.

New this year, the contest will expand to Quebec City, Ottawa, and Saguenay on top of its home town of Montreal. Thanks to their partner Galaxie, the two band finalists will each get a money prize of 1500$ on top of the opportunity to play on the Galaxie Stage at the Heavy MTL Festival at Parc Jean-Drapeau on August 9 and 10, 2014!

Bands who would like to participate can submit their candidacy now onhttp://www.heavymtl.com/playheavy/. The submission period ends on November 15th and the selected groups will be announced early December alongside information on semi-finals and the big finale!

BIO:

Inspired by life and charged with fast and heavy grooves, screaming solos and powerful vocals, Trainwreck Architect will bring you back to the roots of metal with a few surprises along the way.

“The band is inspired by life,” explains frontman Simon Ouellet. “Many things I’ve done in my life can be compared to a trainwreck. The many mistakes I’ve made have put me in some rough places, but in the end, I’m the one who made those choices, which leads me to believe I’m an architect of sorts.”

Bringing the fun of live rock into metal, a Trainwreck show is pure entertainment. “The ‘tough’ stuff has been done to death and, at the end of the day, I believe everyone would rather be happy and party than be angry and stand with their arms crossed in awkward silence,” says Ouellet.

The Montreal band, which describes its sound as “wreck n’ roll”, will be releasing its first studio album, Traits of the Sick, this fall. Mastered by Jeff Waters of Annihilator, whom also makes a guest appearance with a guitar solo on the track ‘As Killers Breathe’, the record features an eclectic mix of thrash, classic metal and rock and deals with the idea of humans being human and never willing to be completely satisfied.

Because, let’s face it, there’s no such thing as perfection. It’s impossible. There’s a trainwreck architect inside us all.

    Vancouver, BC based metal band TRIBUNE are streaming their upcoming author inspired concept album ‘Tales’ via their Youtube channel at the following link here before its official release on Tuesday, October 29th.

tribune - tales album 2013 - preview

Inspired by the writings of some of the world’s most renowned authors, including H.P. Lovecraft, H.G. Wells, Homer among many others. ‘Tales’ explores a more melodic and progressive sound than ever before, but still staying true to the group’s extreme aggression roots. The follow-up to 2011’s Elder Lore/The Dark Arts, demonstrates TRIBUNE’s brawn and brains with a collusion of extremity and accessibility. As the band’s appetite for more extreme metal increased, bands like Carcass, Death and At The Gates began bleeding into their melting pot of influences, resulting in a fresh take on their fine metal sound, which can be heard echoing in the depths of TRIBUNE’s Tales.

In additional news, Tribune will be performing at this year’s 2nd annual homeless benefit show Blankfest-Vancouver in support of the city’s Covenant House, the non-profit shelter that helps the cities street youth from age 16-24 who have fled physical, emotional and/or sexual abuse, along with those who have been forced from their homes or those who have aged out of foster care. Last year, the full-to-capacity event raised over $1,000 and over 200 clothing items for the city’s less fortunate.

Tribune guitarist Shawn Culley comments:

“Tribune is super pumped to be playing a show that will help out the local community. We’re always down for fundraising shows and we want all our metal head friends to come out and hook up the Covenant House with some clothing, blankets or even a cash donation. Tribune is offering deals for donations, so make one and we’ll give you a sweet deal on our merch!”

This year’s event will see seven local Vancouver bands with support from bands from Kelowna and Calgary ranging in various genres of rock n’ roll, hard rock and metal, performing from 7:30pm to 2am at The Railway Club to share their tunes, raise awareness, funds and clothing for the city’s homeless.

As the event slogan goes, ‘It’s About The Homeless, Nothing More, Nothing Less.’.

Blankfest Calgary is just one of many events across North America inspired by founder Kenn Rowell, who has been organizing Blankfest in New York City since 1997 and has encouraged others to hold Blankfests in various parts of the USA, Canada (Montreal, Ottawa, Toronto, Calgary) and Europe to help the homeless with the support from their music communities.
