May 5, 2008 - Gillett Entertainment Group is proud to announce the addition of Disturbed, Voivod and Rev Theory to the second day of HEAVY MTL held on Sunday, June 22nd at Parc Jean-Drapeau.



Hard rockers Disturbed have a lot on their plate in the coming months, with a new album on deck and tour dates around the world. Lead singer David Draiman mentions that, while the new material has its melodic aspects, it is darker, faster, heavier and more complex than Disturbed's past couple of records. Since forming in 1996, the Chicago-based quartet has sold 10 million albums worldwide.

Voivod, a progressive metal band originally from Jonquière formed in 1982 will play live for first time in 5 years. Respected, influential and always amazing, Voivod is possibly the most creative band to master the metal form. In a homage to the guitar legend of Piggy (Denis D'Amour) and the legacy of 25 years of a brotherhood forged by exploring metal, rock and punk ethics with an other worldly premise, Voivod will play on June 22nd as a thank you to the fans and to bring closure to a great career.

With the lead single "Hell Yeah" from their upcoming album Light it Up rapidly climbing the radio charts, Rev Theory is set for breakthrough year in 2008. The band has already been embraced by the WWE as the title track ?Light it Up? was the theme for Wrestlemania 24 and "Hell Yeah," has been chosen for inclusion in EA Sports' best-selling video game Madden '09.

Loud, intense, heavy, HEAVY MTL will feature numerous hard rock and metal bands performing on different stages located outdoors on the breathtaking site that is the Saint-Hélène Island. From Hard Rock to Death metal, from 80?s Glam to Modern Rock, Heavy MTL gives fans a chance to celebrate their love for all things heavy!
