The Real March Madness Is the Metal Meltdown

Everyone’s still wrapped up in college basketball’s March Madness, but there’s another variety coming up quickly.

Called March Metal or Metal Madness at various points, the Metal Meltdown has been happening every March in the Exchange for the past four years, and this might be the biggest year yet. This showcase moment for heavy music in Regina and Saskatchewan takes over both the Exchange and the Club for a single night on Saturday, March 28.

Bands like Kelevra, Deadrot, Trenchfoot, FPG, Tomorrow Starts Today, and the Ben Winoski Project are all playing, but that’s not all. Regina metal mainstays Bloodline are headlining the night and releasing their new album, Prisoner of Life. The group of local music veterans bring experience and dedication to their music, and are ready to close out a big night for heavy music in our two rooms.

Doors open at 7:30 p.m. Show at 8 p.m. Advance tickets are $15 plus s/c and are available from Vintage Vinyl and the Tiki Room. All ages and licensed. For more information, go to the Facebook event.
