A Night Of Local Brutality With KAT WARTOOTH At MELBOURNE METAL MATE'S One-Year Anniversary Gig

Interview by Jack Harlen
Melbourne Metal Mates, an online community for metalheads to go to shows together as gig buddies, comes together for its one-year anniversary as they host a (free) gig on May 4 at The Bendigo Hotel.
The line up includes Melbourne metal staples, including performances from Hybrid Nightmares, Vault Hill, The Incantus and All Monsters Are Human.
HEAVY spoke with creator and founder Kat Wartooth about the creation and rapid ascension of the Melbourne Metal Community and what this unexpected success means for both herself, the fans and the bands of Melbourne's heavy music scene. In the interview we explore how the gig came to be and the connection to each band as well as the possibility of creating a tradition well after their first anniversary celebration.
Kat also touches on the hardships and initial anxieties of starting a gig group before experiencing the influx of like-minded, heavy music enjoyers who latched on to the group's values and sense of community and more.
