The fifth annual Calgary Metalfest will be bringing Annihilator, Exciter, Razor + Sacrifice, the 'Fathers of Canadian Thrash,' together on the same bill.
One of the most compelling aspects of heavy metal is undoubtedly the imagery. It's nearly impossible to think about the movement without having a mental picture of the artwork found within it. Whether it's unmistakable mascots like Iron Maiden's Eddie or Motörhead's War-Pig or Cannibal Corpse's blood orgies disguised as album covers, metal and extreme visuals go together like stress and taxes.
