Stingray Loud is a Canadian English language discretionary specialty channel owned by Stingray Digital. The channel broadcasts music videos relating to rock, modern rock, alternative, punk, and heavy metal.
The channel was launched on September 7, 2001 as MuchLoud by CHUM Limited, the parent company of Citytv and it was a rock music spin-off of MuchMusic, based on its former TV series Loud (Power 30), which served as the daily hard rock and metal video show aired on that channel.
Through multiple ownership changes, MuchLoud and its sister channels were sold to Stingray Digital in 2016 and adopted its current name that year.
