We are looking forward to hearing songs from their classic 3 albums.

You will all want to come and "Tear Down the Walls" next year when you witness the greatness of this band.
This has been a band I have wanted to have play Chicago for a while now and we are thrilled they will finally be here next year.

Here is the third band to be playing the Legions of Metal Festival in 2018.

From North Carolina... WIDOW.
The stars have finally aligned and we were able to finally get the timing right to have this great band here in Chicago.
Widow are a hidden gem in the US.
With 5 full length albums and the latest one..."Carved in Stone" is a must own.
We are thrilled to have Widow on the fest.

The Legions of Metal Festival is proud to announce BITCH for the 2018 festival main stage.
BITCH has an amazing history from being the first woman-fronted American metal band to ever be signed to a label and being on two of the Metal Massacre comps put out by Metal Blade Records.
Having seen the band play recently at the Frost and Fire Festival I can say everyone is in for a treat.

Ouahh! Heir Apparent existe encore! Je les avais vu avec Savage Grace en 1986... Ça a un peu mal vieilli mais je reverrais avec plaisir (avec Liege Lord, autre pépite de Black Dragon records).

Vu une seule fois HEIR APPARENT au Keep It True l'an dernier (sans le chanteur originel malheureusement), mais c'était excellent !
Son très puissant et cristallin, exécution parfaite, une belle gifle !

LIEGE LORD sont toujours très bons aussi cela dit, mais je préfère tout de même HEIR APPARENT.

BITCH (U.S.)
HEIR APPARENT (U.S.)
PHANTOM (U.S.) - Reunion
+ ► REDD BARRON (U.S.) - Reunion
WIDOW (U.S.)
+ ► SAVAGE MASTER (U.S.)

The Legions of Metal Festival is proud to announce the re-union of the Chicago Metal band REDD BARRON for the 2018 festival.
This return show will also have all 5 classic members playing as well.
This is very rare these days with re-union bands to get the whole band back so we are thrilled.

The band was formed back in 1987 and released two cassette tapes, "The Barron's Here to Rock" and "Redd Barron". Heaven and Hell Records will be re-issuing these on a CD in the upcoming year as well. We would also like to thank Jeremy Golden for helping with putting this together for us as well.

It is great to have another historic Chicago band coming back to play the festival. We look forward to this special performance next year. Check out below for some samples of what to expect. Keep an eye out for the re-issue and get ready for some classic Chicago metal next year.


The Legions of Metal Festival is proud to announce SAVAGE MASTER as the next band playing the 2018 fest.
Savage Master is a band everyone knows and loves.
They have been touring and playing shows all over and gaining a huge fan base.
As one of the hardest working newer bands out there they have grown musically and as a live band too.
They are a perfect fit for the fest and we are looking forward to having them in Chicago next May.
They just released a new EP entitled "Creature of the Flame".
We suggest you pick it up now and support this great band.
Check them out on Facebook if you have not yet already below.

SEATTLE'S LEGENDARY "TKO" RETURNS WITH MOST POWERFUL LINEUP YET!
When the question is asked regarding Seattle's most influential bands, one name always stands out: TKO!
With three celebrated albums ("Let it Roll", "In Your Face" & "Below the Belt") and a revolving door of gifted personnel lead by their ever-present, enigmatic front man BRAD SINSEL, the band has consistently wowed audiences and critics alike with it's own brand of no-holds-barred heavy rock-n-roll!
2018 proves again that TKO stands the test of time, as the band returns to take another swing at audiences worldwide with it's most powerful lineup yet!

This round, BRAD SINSEL, welcomes TKO alumni EVAN SHEELEY (Q5, TKO, James Byrd's Atlantis Rising) on bass, the extraordinary KENDALL BECHTEL (Fifth Angel, Q5, Suite Sister Sam) on guitar, and powerhouse drummer JEFFREY McCORMACK (Heir Apparent, Fifth Angel, Q5)!

The band is currently scheduling tour dates worldwide in celebration of its classic release "IN YOUR FACE", playing the album in it's entirety (along with other surprises), to influence yet another generation and show the world again how it's done!
