News : Psycroptic and King Parrot hitting the road together
It seems King Parrot are quickly becoming one of the most active live bands in the country, with yet another tour announced, this time supporting Tasmanian tech-death legends Psycroptic.
“Two of Australia’s most heavy and infamous acts – PSYCROPTIC and KING PARROT– team up for the first time on the ‘Inheriting the Sickness’ tour thisJuly/August. In what is bound to be a notorious and ruthless run of shows,the supports for each will be hand-picked by Psycroptic and King Parrotthemselves, ensuring the highest of quality line-ups and unquestionabletotal bang for your metal money!
Hailing from the remote island of Tasmania, Australia, PSYCROPTIC haveprogressively carved a niche of their own within today’s overcrowded metalscene. Staying clear of trends, PSYCROPTIC incorporate many elements ofmusic – extreme and otherwise – to capture a sound that is uniquely theirown: a precise blend of brutality, intensity and groove. The result being:Australia’s most respected and recognised metal act worldwide!
“I’ve never felt so personally threatened by a record before” Tom Volcanis –Hysteria Magazine
It’s quotes and comments like these circulating in music circles that earnedKING PARROT the reputation as the most lethal and extreme new band inAustralia. After two years, and many hours confined to a tour bus on hectictouring schedules, the result is the debut long player, aptly titled BiteYour Head Off – and the album does just that.”
