DON BROCO: Rob Damiani Talks New Album, Australian Tour, and Future Plans

When they were last here, Don Broco promised the fans they would repay their patience with their long absences and the outpouring of love and adulation at their shows, by playing Australia at the beginning of their next world tour, rather than at the end. They are keeping that promise.

They also promised devastated fans in Adelaide and Perth who missed out last time that they would definitely visit on the next tour. They are delivering on that promise too.

Fresh off a blazing set at the 2025 Download Festival in the UK, Don Broco have confirmed they’re back in the studio crafting their soon to be released fifth album.

With Australian dates confirmed for September, we will be among the very first in the world to hear some of those new tracks alongside all the bangers and crowd favourites from their meteoric career.

The Everblack Podcast spoke to Rob Damiani from Don Broco about kicking off their massive world tour in Australia, fulfilling the promise they made to fans last time and finally hitting Adelaide and Perth. Rob also talks about playing Download Festival 2025, sharing the stage with Sleep Token, and the band’s upcoming fifth album — which he says is their heaviest yet, embracing nu-metal influences while still keeping Don Broco’s unique sound. We also discuss the success of Amazing Things hitting #1 in the UK, the freedom that’s given the band creatively, and what fans can expect when Don Broco return to Australia with brand new music and a high-energy live show.

Watch/listen to the interview here:

DON BROCO are charging into a bold new era with the release of their explosive new single Cellophane, out now via their new label home, Fearless Records.

Blending biting riffs, stomping drums, and a vocal performance that flips effortlessly between smooth melodies, snarled verses, and angsty screams, Cellophane marks a razor-sharp evolution of the band’s signature genre-bending style. Equal parts nu-metal revival and festival-ready rock anthem, the Dan Lancaster (Blink-182, Muse, Bring Me The Horizon) produced song is built to make you bang your head and move your feet, all while grappling with something much heavier beneath the surface.

“Cellophane is about realizing you’re not as tough as you thought,” the band shares. “That maybe you mentally don’t have what it takes, but at the same time are afraid of getting the help you need.”
