For the first time ever and finally, legendary extreme Dutch metal act PESTILENCE conquer Australian territory! PESTILENCE was one of the first major bands to emerge from the Dutch metal underground of the 1980’s. While all the other groups from that era have since vanished into ancient history, PESTILENCE is as vital, relevant, and ambitious as ever. In their early beginnings the band wrote history with its albums Consvming Impvlse, Testimony Of The Ancients and Spheres – all albums that helped shaped death metal as we know it.
Arguably the pioneers of death metal in Australia, ABRAMELIN have just completed their fourth full length studio album, ‘Sins of the Father’. Due for release on October 4th, it is an all-out brutal assault on the senses; while lyrically, it continues to push the boundaries of horror and depravity. Armed with their new arsenal and a back catalogue of classics, ABRAMELIN are back to sonically hammer smash and destroy everything in their way.
With a career spanning over three decades ALARUM are known for their intricate blend of technical prowess and genre-defying soundscapes that has helped them distinguished themselves in the Australian metal scene with a unique fusion of progressive metal, jazz, and thrash, creating a sound that is both complex and dynamic. It is without any question that ALARUM were the obvious choice to complete this uncompromising and formidable line-up.
