Kill Halloween


SaintWoods invites you to their second edition of Kill Halloween taking place October 30th @ Metropolis.

Before I move on to any descriptions, here are the essential links for the party: Facebook & Tickets

THE PARTY:

At Kill Halloween you will experience much more than just music. Don’t get us wrong, you are going to see some of the best live acts that the world has too offer, but just as important to us is our promise to annihilate all your senses with a freakish full-on sensory overload. The atmosphere at Kill Halloween is just as important to us as the headlining acts. Last year our headliners the Bloody Beetroots absolutely murdered it, but what had people talking just as much were the fire breathers, the visuals, the blood, the gore, the over the top spectacle that no other party in Canada goes to the length to conjure. You will be taken down an epic adventure where reality will be twisted into nightmare as your senses are bombarded by ghoulish performances, twisted lightshows and an all out over-the top adventure that will take all you party monsters down the rabbit hole and into the freak-show that is Kill Halloween. The second annual Kill Halloween will bring you the world’s best DJs and performances amplified by state-of-the-art lighting design, interactive circus and theatrical performances, art installations and audience participation that PROMISES TO PUSH THE LIMITS OF THE LIVE CONCERT EXPERIENCE. For anyone who came last year... You know exactly what we are talking about! 


Ok, pre-written blurb aside, this is ridiculous. Rarely has Montreal seen this kind of event. Not only is the local talent well represented, but Saint Woods has managed to book the mighty Erol Alkan. Besides L-A Riots, all of the DJs are Canada-based, which is fuckin' dope. This will be insane for a number of reasons:

1- Line-Up (obviously)
2- Great mix of genres so the vibe switches up all night (dubstep, dnb, dutch house, electro-house, tech house, tropical madness, techno, etc etc)
3- A big-ass venue to fit all of the crazy MTL ravers
4- The Line-up (Did I already mention that?)


Anyways, I've thrown together a little preview of what you're going to hear tonight. You can download most of the tracks, and you can stream all of them. Give 'em a listen, I absolutely guarantee you'll find something you like in this gargantuan pile of madness.

Envision this party, take Erol Alkan and substitute the sublime Montreal talent for: A-Trak, Brodinski, Crookers, Fake Blood, Rusko, Boys Noize, etc... 

See you there.
