Best Metal & Hard Rock in Madison

Beat - King Crimson Tribute at Orpheum Theatre

Beat - King Crimson Tribute

The music of King Crimson is celebrated by a group of musicians that are less "tribute band" more "supergroup"! Legendary guitarist Steve Vai and Tool drummer Danney Carey join former King Crimson members Adrian Belew and Tony Levin to tour a show performing the best bits from the legendary prog-rockers' three 1980s entries, Discipline, Beat and Three of a Perfect Pair... plus potentially a few surprises!

Babymetal at The Sylvee

Babymetal

A musical fusion the likes of which the world had never seen or heard before, Babymetal first turned ears and heads when they released their self-titled debut album in 2014. Don't miss feisty, pint-sized performers Su-metal and Moametal in all their pig-tailed, metal pop glory as they hit US shores for their 2024 tour, taking names and filling arenas with their unique sound.

Buckethead at Majestic Theatre

Buckethead

Legendary guitarist Buckethead is heading out on tour! Real name Brian Patrick Carroll, Buckethead has spent his whole onstage career behind a Halloween inspired mask, with a KFC bucket perched on his head. His ominous appearance has created an almost mystical aura around him, backed up by his transcendently good guitar playing, blending metal, blues and prog with stunning effect.

Marilyn Manson at The Sylvee

Marilyn Manson

Brian Hugh Warner, the self-styled "Antichrist Superstar," is the most widely recognised mainstream antihero, becoming a bogeyman for politicians and concerned parents across America during the Nineties and early 2000s. Now the Nu-metal icon and king of controversy returns this year with his new tour!
