Opening the night, Aviana wasted no time commanding attention. With every member except the vocalist wearing masks, they brought an air of mystery that matched their aggressive sound.
Having previously toured extensively, their chemistry on stage was undeniable, translating into a performance packed with raw energy. Tracks from their October 2025 release VOID hit hard, immediately igniting the crowd and setting the pace for the rest of the night.
Caskets shifted the energy into a dynamic blend of melody and heaviness. Hailing from Leeds, UK, the band delivered a polished performance filled with powerful clean vocals and well-timed screams. Their stage presence stood out, with constant movement—spins, kicks, and full-band engagement—that kept eyes locked on them.
It didn’t take long before the first crowd surfers made their way to the front, signaling that the energy in the room was only building. Their latest album, The Only Heaven You’ll Know, released in October 2025, translated seamlessly to a live setting.
As anticipation peaked, ERRA took the stage following a dramatic countdown displayed across the back screen. From the first note, their set was an all-out assault of technical precision and crushing heaviness, balanced perfectly with clean vocals. The crowd response was immediate and intense, with a constant stream of crowd surfers pushing security to their limits.
The band’s March 6 release, Silence Outlives the Earth, added fresh material to an already powerful setlist. Combined with an impressive light show and immersive visuals, ERRA delivered one of the most electrifying performances of the night.
Headliners Currents brought the night to its peak the moment they stepped on stage. The Montréal crowd instantly locked in, singing along to every word and fueling an already wild atmosphere.
Crowd surfing reached another level, with everything from kids riding the wave to someone in a dinosaur onesie making their way across the venue.
The band’s connection with the audience was undeniable, even debuting a song live for the first time on this tour exclusively in Montréal. Their recently released March 11 Audiotree live EP added another layer to their already impressive catalog, closing the night on an unforgettable high.
From start to finish, this show was a testament to the power of modern metalcore. Each band brought something unique, but together they created a night that Montréal won’t forget anytime soon.
