Gilead Media, one of the essential underground metal labels in the world (Krallice, Thou, False, Imperial Triumphant, Falls of Rauros, Yellow Eyes, Mizmor) will again hold their amazing Migration Fest in Pittsburgh in 2020. The fest will be held on August 1st and 2nd, 2020 at Mr. Smalls. The full lineup of bands has been selected and no submissions will be accepted. Announcements coming at a later date. The label made the announcement via their regular newsletter, which you can sign up for here.

“We’re at it again…

Migration Fest will return once again in 2020, right on schedule. And right back in Pittsburgh.

August 1st and 2nd, 2020 at Mr. Smalls.

We’re gonna do a Friday pre-show somewhere at a smaller venue.

Only 2 full days this year. 3 full days was too much.

You can follow all the updates at http://migrationfest.com/ or at the Facebook even page deal: https://www.facebook.com/events/1103021356752956/

We already picked all the bands, and as usual we will not accept submissions.

No guest list, no press passes, no photo passes. Just a record label family reunion. Go or don’t.

Band announcements begin in a couple months. Tickets will probably go on sale sometime in Jan/Feb 2020.

Thanks to everyone that’s been along for the Gilead Fest / Migration Fest ride over the past 8 years. They’re always a great gathering to look back on.
