**Traveler** is a Canadian heavy metal powerhouse that's been reviving classic metal vibes with a modern twist since their formation in 2018. Fronted by powerhouse vocalist Jean-Pierre Abboud (also of Gatekeeper fame), the band—rounded out by guitarists Matt Ries and Chad Vallier, and drummer Dave Arnold—delivers fist-pumping anthems packed with sci-fi storytelling and shredding riffs. Bursting onto the scene with their self-titled debut in 2019, they doubled down with 2020’s *Termination Shock*, a cosmic thrill ride of soaring vocals and dual-guitar fireworks. Their 2023 EP *Prequel to Madness* cranks the energy even higher, proving they’re here to keep the New Wave of Traditional Heavy Metal alive and kicking. Whether you’re into retro nostalgia or fresh adrenaline, Traveler’s high-octane sound is a gateway to metal’s golden age with a jet-fueled upgrade.
