Louder Than Life 2025 just wouldn’t hit the same without a band like Knocked Loose. The Kentucky hardcore bruisers will tear up the Highland Festival Grounds on Sunday, 21 September, delivering the kind of chaos that turns a packed festival field into a war zone of swinging limbs and circle pits.
If you’ve seen Knocked Loose live, you know what’s coming and if you haven’t, get ready. The band’s rise from underground heroes to major festival wrecking crew hasn’t softened their edges one bit. With You Won’t Go Before You’re Supposed To dropping last year, their sound has evolved into something even nastier. A punch of metallic hardcore laced with crushing breakdowns, eerie atmosphere and raw emotional weight.
Frontman Bryan Garris doesn’t just scream, he sounds like he’s tearing himself apart at the seams. Pouring every ounce of frustration and fury into the mic. Expect tracks like ‘Blinding Faith’, ‘God Knows’, and ‘Suffocate’ to hit with devastating force, the kind that makes your bones rattle and your chest tighten!
Festival Standouts
What makes Knocked Loose stand out on a lineup stacked with metal and rock giants is that their sets feel dangerous in the best way. There’s no slick, polished act here, just pure, unfiltered energy that connects with every outsider and misfit in the pit.
If you’re heading to Louder Than Life on the final day, make sure you catch their set. Bring your boots, leave your ego at the gate and prepare to get levelled.
Louder Than Life 2025 runs 18–21 September in Louisville, Kentucky. With one of the most stacked lineups of the year, this is your chance to see Knocked Loose unleash hell alongside metal and rock’s heaviest hitters. Don’t sleep on this, it’s going to be absolute carnage.
