Michigan’s For The Fallen Dreams are heading to Australia for a national tour this September. The Substance Australian Tour will also feature The Plot In You, Storm The Sky and Fit For a King and will arrive in Melbourne on Sunday September 15 at The Corner. You can also catch all bands at Invasion Fest 2012 at venue TBC.
I regularly post news on new bands forming, God knows a dozen promising new entities are formed every hour, but this one feels like it deserves inclusion. Hot Water Music bassist Jason Black has started a new band called UnWed. He’s described it as “good ’90s rock” with a Deftones/Hum/Queens Of The Stone Age vibe. Intriguing.
Excellent stoner metal band Sleep will play two headline Australian shows in October, but neither is coming to Melbourne. ? Fear not, you can see them at the Westgate Sports and Leisure Center on October 26 with The Breeders, Television, The Jesus Lizard and more. Which means there is still hope for us to witness the 68-minute long stoner anthem Dopesmoker live.
Obey The Brave have announced their supports for their upcoming Australian tour. Boris The Blade and The Storm Picturesque will join the band for their gig at Bang on Saturday August 17. You can also catch them at the Mordialloc Metal and Hardcore Festival at the Allen Mclean Hall with Buried In Verona and Attila.
Sweden’s Adept have announced their first ever Australian tour for this October. Their Silence The World show will hit Melbourne’s Bendigo Hotel on Thursday October 17, before arriving at Wrangler Studios on Friday October 18 for an all ages affair. Get excited. They are.
Dead Letter Circus are fresh off a national tour as main support for Fear Factory but that doesn’t mean they’re slowing down. The guys are heading off on their own headlining tour this September before they try their luck overseas. See them at Ferntree Gully Hotel on Friday August 30, then Corner Hotel on Friday October 4. Tickets are on sale now.
