After their most extensive and successful tour to date earlier this year, Canadian hyperblasters KATAKLYSM will return to Europe in December 2016 as part of the return of the MTV Headbangers Ball Tour! The varied line-up will be completed by US heavy metallers ICED EARTH, Finnish folk metal superstars ENSIFERUM and US metalcore act UNEARTH. Find all dates below!
Headbangers Ball - a name that evokes pure heavy metal nostalgia - will breathe new life and, by the end of this year, MTV's classic 80's show shall return as a series of events. MTV Headbangers Ball, hosted by Continental Concerts in co-operation with MTV, is going to tour Europe. Just like the classic TV show presented by Vanessa Warwick, the festival tour is going to embody the cutting edge and timeless essence of pure f**king metal!
MTV Headbangers Ball was broadcasted for the first time on April 18th, 1987 and quickly became one of the most popular shows on MTV. The show was on air for eight years in the USA and six years in Europe. Besides music videos, the show also featured interviews with bands as well as specials on particular acts or festivals. The "Triple Thrash Treat" section created a TV platform for more extreme forms of metal, a tradition continued by this series of live events. Just like the TV show, the festival tour aims at presenting the endless variety of metal music offering a platform for established artists as well as newcomers.
