Western Front: Metal People's Choice

A while back we had the voting for people's favourite metal bands currently playing around the Perth scene, and as a result we've put on a show with some of the top voted bands. It was hard though as there are so many quality bands, and they all got a number of votes, and it was all pretty close or tied up. At the end of the day, we've come up with a solid line up and it should be an awesome show, with Depravity, Grotesque, Wardaemonic and Burial Ground.

Also, it is a newer venue for live music, at Lucy's Love Shack in the CBD. It's a rock 'n' roll themed bar so it has a cool vibe, and not only that but they have a late license and serve fresh pizzas all night. So everyone should get down there on Saturday the 2nd of March, support metal, impress them so they want to make it a regular venue for live metal, and enjoy the show!

Metal Musicians of Australia facebook group

We've started a closed group specifically for metal bands and musicians, for discussing ideas and strategies to promote them, and possibly give them more resources.

Vote for your favourite bands to play!

Old mate Jamie Kay from Depravity and myself, with the powers of the Western Front crew have plans to put on a show in Perth with the concept being the line up is crowd voted, so you get all the favourites.

Head over to this post in WF facebook group and make your votes count! Destined to be a show of epic proportions.
