Australia’s extreme metal maestros Thy Art Is Murder have announced their intention to cause brutality across regional Australia. Starting in Queensland and winding up in Tasmania, Thy Art Is Murder will take a wrecking ball to 16 stops around the country throughout June and July. Joining them for a night of carnage will be Mélancolia, Hate Complex, plus a very special secret guest appearing exclusively in SE Queensland to be revealed at a later date.
Thy Art Is Murder are an unrelenting force that have ascended the ranks to become of the top tier bands in extreme metal, sitting on their blood throne amongst the genre’s elite. Since the release of their latest album, Godlike, Thy Art Is Murder have been a non-stop touring machine. The album has taken them to far flung corners of the globe, including their first ever tour of Latin America, and next week the band will raze their way through Asia. Next up, it’s our regions’ turn to experience the explosive record that torpedoed the band onto the biggest headline tours and festival slots of their career.
Helping Thy Art Is Murder spread brutality across Australia is a killer line-up, kicking off with Melbourne’s Mélancolia. This melodic blackened deathcore group played their debut live show, supporting Thy Art in 2023 and since then they’ve signed to Greyscale and Nuclear Blast, inflicted sonic horror with their debut album, HissThroughRottenTeeth, and have just wrapped up a massive European tour with Suffocation. Hailing from the East Coast, Hate Complex is an unrelenting new project featuring members of Inhibitor, The Storm Picturesque, Wraithe and Aversions Crown, already making waves with a savage trilogy of singles, pointing toward an explosive debut album.
Brutality Across Australia is set to be Thy Art’s last headline shows in Australia for the year. After this, the band will head back to Europe to support Parkway Drive on their mammoth 20th Anniversary tour across the continent. Don’t miss out!
Tickets are on sale via thyartismurder.net on Thursday April 24.
