For the very first concert in its history, the Slush Puppie Centre welcomed renowned international artist Flo Rida to Gatineau. Fans knew they were in for a treat, but what unfolded was one of the most entertaining show we’ve seen in the National Capital Region in a very long time!

En ce deuxième jour du Festival Country Lotbinière, la scène Kia a accueilli beaucoup plus de spectateurs, ce qui a évidemment ravi les artistes en prestation.

The midway point of Festival Country Lotbinière has arrived and, for once, not a rain cloud to be seen and even our old friend the sun made an appearance in the afternoon to welcome thousands of country fans to the grounds behind the Saint-Agapit arena. But not before another full afternoon of performances on the KIA stage which featured up and coming country acts from across Quebec.

We’re back for our annual pilgrimage to Saint-Agapit, Quebec for the 2023 edition of Festival Country Lotbinière. Once again, this year, weather is the talk of the town as cold wet weather has dominated. Thankfully for organizers country fans in Quebec have proven that they will show up in rain, hail, sleet and snow and a bit of cold and wet weather didn’t dampen the spirits much.

Comme l’année dernière, le Festival Country Lotbinière a érigé une scène pour mettre en valeur des artistes locaux durant l’après-midi. Comme l’année dernière aussi, les gens étaient au rendez-vous pour applaudir et encourager ces artistes.

On Wednesday night, Vancouver was lucky enough to be the third Canadian stop on the annual Decibel Magazine Tour.

Hailed as the longest-running Metal tour in North America, this prolific showcase has brought bands like Obituary, Morbid Angel and Enslaved to cities across the continent for over ten years.

The 2023 tour perfectly blended black and death metal with its lineup consisting of Dark Funeral, Cattle Decapitation, along with up-and-coming heavy-hitters 200 Stab Wounds and Black Braid.

Between the crushing atmospherics, gruesome vocals, and downright nasty riffs, there was little room for any disappointment.

Highlights included: Black Braid’s culturally rich performance that was both beautiful and educational. As they wove traditional indigenous instruments, songs, and storytelling throughout raw and atmospheric black metal soundscapes.

200 Stab Wounds never fail to put on a brutal set with tight instrumentation and neck-breaking riffs, this band is a real testament to the new wave of Death Metal and just how tough it is.

Obviously, Cattle Decapitation was just insane. Travis Ryan is otherworldly live, foaming at the mouth and creating noises no human should be able to. It’s not just Ryan that makes this band hard to believe, but every member is a tenacious beast with their instrument – all coming together to form one wretched conglomerate of sound that is honestly mind-boggling to bear witness to.

Sadly, I had to depart before Dark Funeral hit the stage. But, I was lucky enough to catch them back in November wit Cattle Decapitation, and I know for a fact they are a band everyone must see at least once.
