Infest Edmonton

:: INFEST ARTIST ANNOUNCEMENT ::

From the fractured corridors of psychological ruin.. a force that thrives where reason decays and obsession takes root. INFEST is proud to unleash ETERNAL upon the stage for the 3rd Annual INFEST 2026.

ETERNAL exposes the darkness that festers beneath the mask of civilization in the abyssal atmosphere of humanity’s eternal struggle against itself. A descent into the beautiful sickness that binds us all. Where desire mutates into compulsion, where reason fractures beneath the weight of instinct, and where death waits patiently behind every heartbeat.
NO MERCY. ONLY ETERNAL.

From the depths of unspoken rage, INFEST summons the slow-moving avalanche of distortion and despair.. MILK MAID descends upon the 3rd Annual INFEST.

Forged in sludge and doom, through the mire of inner turmoil and existential ruin.. MILK MAID channels the crushing weight into something both devastating and defiant. Their sound is a monument to survival—where anguish becomes strength & where fury becomes liberation.

This is confrontation. This is the sound of power reclaimed.

INFEST III WELCOMES CANADIAN METAL LEGENDS VOIVOD
The 3rd Annual INFEST is proud to announce the arrival of one of the most visionary and influential bands in heavy music history — VOIVOD.

Very few bands survive for four decades. Even fewer are those that continue to reach new creative heights, long after legendary status has been achieved. Voïvod were never like other bands: even as the thrash metal scene exploded in the early ‘80s, the Jonquière, Québec crew stood apart, both as unique visionaries and as proud subverters of the metallic norm. From early prog-thrash classics like Killing Technology and Dimension Hatröss through to the psychedelic explorations of The Outer Limits, Voïvod have been standard bearers for individuality and creative freedom for nearly 40 years.

From interstellar voyages and post-apocalyptic landscapes to reflections on power, conflict, and humanity’s uncertain future, VOIVOD have consistently challenged convention while pushing metal into unexplored dimensions. Their groundbreaking catalog remains a blueprint for progressive and avant-garde heavy music.

Join us as we welcome the architects of metallic science fiction, the pioneers of the unknown, the one and only VOIVOD.
