With a staggering fan of all ages and a reputation for angry songs, metal music always has had a rebellious place in history since about the 1970s. For decades, metalheads have turned heads and questioned authority through exciting guitar mega solos and insane head-bursting lyrics.
The metal genre has grown and formed into various spin-offs like the 1980s classics of thrash, glam and doom metal, or modern marvels of alternative and death metal. The newest branches include folk metal and deathcore, although old school metalheads also have a sense of protectiveness about their favorite bands. Still, everyone moshing can agree that everyone there wants to enjoy the madness and release pent-up aggression as they see fit.
Elder welcomes all fans in Asheville on their North America Tour 2026, whether they're old enough to have experienced the epic thrash and glam metal bands firsthand or they're ready to jump into the fray that is the metal genre. Joining them are Asheville's own Bask, the LIT Music show-stopping heavy Americana rockers.
Elder understands heavy feelings, as anyone can hear from their EPIC track list that pull at the heartstrings (with lyrics your mother would turn off). With crushing riffs, hypnotic grooves and exquisite atmospherics spanning albums like Omens, Innate Passage and their upcoming release Through Zero (dropping May 29, 2026), Elder is loved and rightly so.
