If you're looking for a doom metal festival in 2026, Emissions From The Monolith 10 brings together slow, heavy, loud, and underground music in Youngstown, Ohio.
Emissions From The Monolith 10 takes place October 8–11, 2026 at Westside Bowl in Youngstown, Ohio. The festival features four days of underground heavy music on one stage, with full sets and no overlapping performances.
Emissions has deep roots in doom, sludge, stoner rock, and underground heavy music. The 2026 edition continues that history with a lineup built for fans of heavy riffs, full-volume performances, and bands that belong in a focused room rather than scattered across overlapping stages.
The 2026 lineup includes Axioma, Bat, Bongzilla, Cavity, Deadbird, Disengage, Edhochuli, Fistula, Generation of Vipers, Great Falls, High Desert Queen, Horseburner, Howling Giant, Kowloon Walled City, Lake Lake, Lo-Pan, Minsk, O.I.L., Rebreather, Rwake, Shun, Solace, Stinking Lizaveta, Sunrot, Telekinetic Yeti, The Brought Low, Thunderchief, Today Is The Day, Torche, Voivod, Weedeater, and Winds of Neptune.
Featured artists include Voivod, Weedeater, Torche, Bongzilla, Rwake, Today Is The Day, Kowloon Walled City, Cavity, Great Falls, Minsk, Stinking Lizaveta, Telekinetic Yeti, Lo-Pan, and many more.
Unlike large multi-stage festivals, Emissions is built around a focused single-stage experience. Attendees do not have to choose between bands, miss sets because of schedule conflicts, or move between stages all day. Every band plays in the same room, in front of the same crowd.
The result is a curated heavy music weekend designed for people who care about doom, sludge, stoner rock, post-metal, noise rock, hardcore, and underground metal.
Fans searching for doom metal festivals are often looking for more than a few heavy bands on a mixed bill. Emissions is built around heavy music from top to bottom, giving doom, sludge, stoner rock, and post-metal fans a full weekend instead of a single side stage.
