Matinee Metal Mania

Matinee Metal Mania at Shotkickers! The sci-fi adventurers of FLITCRAFT will clash with the zombie marauders of HELLULOID ! Who will win in the ultimate showdown between flying saucer alien invaders and earthbound monsters of the undead?! Join us for a killer afternoon of heavy metal on Saturday 28 th November at Shotkickers in Thornbury and you shall know the answer! Melbourne band FLITCRAFT return to the stage to play their unique brand of prog rock / heavy metal and showcase their tendency toward songs of sci-fi journeys through space. Still promoting their 2025 release “Transmission Echo,” the band’s third album, FLITCRAFT is music to lift your fist into the air and your mind into the ether. HELLULOID are a powerful new force on the local heavy scene, releasing their debut album “Slash Metal” in April of this year. It’s thrash in classic style, with songs based on horror movies from the 1980’s. HELLULOID will get the blood pumping (and the blood spilling) like it’s Halloween in your favourite video store in 1985. Stoner rockers HAIL FREYA will kick off the proceedings with their tough brand of psychedelic spells!
