Somewhere between the prairies and the Rocky Mountains, a rumbling begins, painting an avalanche of sound as diverse as the landscape it crawls.

Across the plains, the echoes of a rebellious past can be heard for miles, reverberating over the foothills, telling stories of a rugged existence like the drifters who crossed before.

Beyond the oil fields of the frozen north, a drum gets louder and louder, like the buffalo who once stormed this land, until the rhythm is so intense it just won’t be ignored any longer.

This is heavy metal, Alberta style. And we want YOU to feel its fury!

A new, innovative monthly magazine, Pitch Black embraces the ferocious passion for music by our own Homegrown Hellions, while giving readers a virtual Backstage Pass to the international acts that visit Alberta, fueling the passion of local fans, attracting new ones, and further inspiring our burgeoning pool of local talent.

Pitch Black is putting the Western Canadian province on the map as a place that nurtures our own talent, while inviting anyone who loves hard rock and metal to visit one of our many mosh pits, or come out and help us start one!
