The pit is alive at Louder Than Life 2025 – here’s the biggest moments so far from the festival.
Louder Than Life 2025 is in full swing, and Blunt Mag is on ground catching it all.
From monster headliners tearing through their catalogs to once-in-a-lifetime guest spots, this year’s festival is already stacking moments fans will be replaying long after the dust settles. The Louisville air is buzzing with beer, barbecue smoke, and riffs that carry for miles.
Main stage sets have been heavy hitters like Sleep Token, Deftones, and Slayer, with bands delivering career-spanning shows to crowds that stretch further than the eye can see. Legacy names have leaned into nostalgia while newcomers have seized the chance to prove they belong on the same bill. Between circle pits kicking up dirt and hands raised sky-high, the energy hasn’t dipped once.
Off-stage, Louder Than Life is just as intense. Food stalls as far as the eye can see, plenty of bourbon, and more than a handful of engagements and weddings has kept the crowd busy between sets – with what little time between sets there is, with over 150 acts on the lineup.
Blunt Mag is in the pit, the food lines, and everywhere in between. We’ll keep updating with rolling highlights, backstage stories, and anything else that sets Louder Than Life apart this year. Whether you’re there or watching from home, we’ve got you covered.
