For one weekend every year, Madison is the center of the North American metal universe. The fifth incarnation of the Mad With Power Fest — the brainchild of one of the hardest-working music men in Madison, Ty Christian — will rattle the walls with a dozen power metal and traditional heavy metal bands from the United States and Canada. They include headliners Aether Realm (melodic power death metal from North Carolina) and Psychostick (comedy death metal from Chicago). Christian’s band, Lords of the Trident — the self-proclaimed “most metal band on earth” — will play, too. As of this week, just a few Friday-only tickets remained available, but never fear: You can tune in to a livestream at twitch.tv/LordsOfTheTrident. Find the full schedule below.
