You probably heard the name mentioned more than once while SXSW fever was in full effect last week, but you’ll know the name much better soon. Waxahatchee will tour Australia for the first time in July following the release of her new album, Ivy Tripp, on Friday April 10. See her play The Toff In Town on Saturday July 4. Tickets are available now.
The Resignators will release a six-track EP called Fish Outta Water shortly, and they’re playing at Cherry Bar on Friday April 3 to celebrate. LoPan, Tzatiki party and Jay Wars will be on hand this weekend at the show, which will also raise funds for the band’s return to Canada in April/May.
Swedish metal legends At The Gates will tour Australia again this October (yes, that’s more than six months away), for the second time since they reformed. The band (against all odds) released a new album in 2014 and they’re coming over to play it for us. Two shows at The Corner Hotel are booked on Friday October 30 and Saturday October 31.
Karnivool are tearing through tickets for their upcoming Themata tour. Two Corner Hotels are gone and the third one on Thursday May 14 will probably be sold out at time of print. Go check The Corner Hotel website just in case, and if you have tickets, you MUST see Cairo Knife Fight when they open up proceedings.
Rotting Out are dunzo. Vocalist Walter Delgado announced on his personal Tumblr last week that they’d broken up the week prior. “Thanks to anyone who ever cared. It was a great ride and a privilege. Don’t ask why. Thank you everyone.”

Meanwhile, Dance Gavin Dance will jam alongside Acrasia, The Valley Ends and Gladstone when they play at The Corner Hotel on Sunday May 17.
Luca Brasi have been touring manically in support of new 7” this month and they’re not really interested in stopping anytime soon.

Sydney band Hellions have jumped on the lineup for the upcoming Enter Shikari tour. They just completed their lap for the launch of their new album Indian Summer and now they’ll be at The Forum on Friday May 22. Tickets available now.
