The loudest festival of the summer has been announced! With a lineup that includes bands such as Killswitch Engage, Parkway Drive, Beartooth, and so many more, Summer of Loud 2025 is headed to venues across the country, including Northwell at Jones Beach Theater on July 20th and PNC Bank Arts Center on July 24th! See below on how you can win a pair of tickets to either of these shows:

The Summer of Loud Tour 2025 is brand new and highly anticipated hard rock festival featuring four powerhouse headliners: Beartooth, I Prevail, Killswitch Engage, and Parkway Drive. The tour will also showcase talented support acts such as The Devil Wears Prada, The Amity Affliction, and Alpha Wolf. Kicking off on June 21 in West Palm Beach, Florida, and concluding on July 27 in Charlotte, North Carolina, this extensive tour promises an unforgettable experience for rock fans across North America.

One of the main headliners, Beartooth, is an American metalcore band formed in Columbus, Ohio, in 2012. The band was founded by Caleb Shomo, who had previously been a member of Attack Attack! before striking out on his own to create Beartooth. Their debut album, Disgusting (2014), made a big impact in the metalcore scene, followed by successful releases like Aggressive (2016) and Disease (2018). Their energetic live shows and passionate fanbase have solidified them as a force within the modern metalcore scene.

Another killer headliner is Killswitch Engage, and they are known as one of the pioneers of the metalcore genre. Formed in 1999 in Westfield, Massachusetts, the band is known for blending elements of metal and hardcore, creating a heavy yet melodic sound with powerful breakdowns and soaring clean vocals. Their early albums, such as Alive or Just Breathing (2002) and The End of Heartache (2004), are considered classic records in the genre, earning them critical acclaim and widespread recognition. The band has seen several lineup changes over the years, but their most famous and influential period was with vocalist Jesse Leach and guitarist Adam D. Killswitch Engage's blend of crushing heaviness and melodic accessibility helped shape the metalcore movement. With an enduring legacy and a reputation for delivering thrilling live performances, Killswitch Engage remains a dominant force in heavy music.
