CAPS Loud!: four bands, one evening full of heavy riffs, driving drums, and dynamics that switch from subtle to loud. Progressive metal and rock, hard and intense. PROXIMA FLARE: Proxima Flare is a metal band from Amsterdam and Haarlem, combining progressive and alternative influences. They make loud guitar music where the drums take the lead and the bass is really important. Clear vocals bring everything together and give the band a unique sound. HURRYLAND: The progressive metal band Hurryland mixes the hardness of metal, the improvisation of jazz, and the atmosphere of post-rock. Hurryland, a group of friends consisting of six musicians from all over Europe, not only writes goosebump-inducing music but also delivers a tight and energetic live show that leaves you completely mind-blown. SUBSPECTRAL: The five-member Dutch metal band Subspectral brings fat riffs, progressive rhythms, and surprising song structures, but also melody. The band effortlessly switches from heavy and intense to melodic passages, always keeping the song central. XENOTIME: Xenotime is a contemporary progressive rock band that intrigues you with musical stories about the unusual. Sometimes the music is melodic and flowing, at other times loud and grating. CAPS Loud! is the evening for hard music in CAPSLOC – from metalcore to hardcore, punk, groove metal, symphonic metal, and industrial: everything that rocks!
