Metallikausi

Metallikausi (Fin. Metal Era) is an exhibition that dives into the dark and cold under current of metal music. A globally renowned and recognized marginal phenomenon, that continues to thrive, rose from the depths of the north, ice, darkness, loneliness and melancholia in the 80s.

The exhibition is a tribute to northern metal bands, such as Riff Raff, Faff- Bey, Sentenced, Hebosagil and Bonehunter. These bands took the scene’s extremity to a brand-new level. For those who are here now and who were here then.

The exhibition is realized in cooperation between the Oulu Museum and the Science Centre Tietomaa. Metallikausi opens at the Museum and Science Centre Tiima on October 9, 2026.
