Here we go again—Initial Shock IV!
International noise will be on display in Montreal for three days in July. Lineups, posters and ticket links below. Limited weekend passes are available for a reduced rate of $55. Prices are in Canadian dollars.
Please note that due to the venue change from previous years these shows do run the risk of selling out. We hope to be able to accommodate everyone, but advanced ticket purchasing is advised.
More information including artist bios and noise market vendors forthcoming. If you would like to set up a table at the market event, please email initialshockmtl@gmail.com – thanks!
