News : Local supports announced for Black Tusk Australia/NZ tour

By on July 4, 2016

Thanks to Life Is Noise, the local supports for US metallers Black Tusk‘s Australia/New Zealand tour this August have been announced.

As shared on Life Is Noise’s Facebook page, the supports are as follows:

In Auckland on August 3 at the The Kings Arms Tavern, straight-up red-headed doompunkers Bloodnut will be the main support backed by the nihilistic and whacked-out rhythms of fellow locals, sere, opening the night.

BATPISS, a trio of Melburnian loose screws, will hit punters hard-and-fast before the headliners on August 4 at the Reverence Hotel. Kicking off the evening will be Preston’s very own hardcore sludge lords BØG.

Melbourne’s iconic Ding Dong Lounge will play host on August 5 to the blues-infused punk sounds of main support Dead City Ruins. But there are plenty of reasons to get there early and enjoy a few pints with the fuzzed-out Swidgen setting the mood and TTTDC spinning a tapestry between rock and noise.

On August 6 at The Bald Faced Stag, Black Tusk will have the devastatingly heavy support of Witch Fight—who walk a fine line between stoner and punk with ease. And soul-destroying Sydney locals DISPOSSESSED are ready to smash skulls to start.

Wrapping up this gigantic tour in Brisbane on August 7 at Crowbar, Siberian Hell Sounds pay homage to blackened sounds of times past with an unrelenting hardcore twist and Comfort giving you a straight up crusty punk noise fest guaranteed to melt your face.

Tickets are on sale now through Life Is Noise and Under the Radar.
