Once again we’ve handed the unholy reigns over to PBS’ Hard and Heavy shows to summon their favourite bands for an all-day, all-night axe smashing riff fest for Heavy and Hammered III. Taking place at the home of Melbourne music – The Tote on Saturday, October 7.
Rock n roll underground lords CHILD return from a European tour to the Tote stage with two dozen smashing local rock and metal bands including energetic Celtic punk outfit The Ramshackle Army, prog-rock master’s Acolyte, the dirty rock hardness of The Mercy Kills and the oozing thick riffs of heavy psych rock legends Holy Serpent. This year we also welcome the pulsating storm of static-y fuzz and gigantic swaying hooks of Motherslug and the unique melodic heavy riffs of Envenomed. To name but a few!
