News : Rob Zombie, Murderdolls, Monster Magnet, Dommin sidewave

By on November 19, 2010

Several of the most theatric bands on 2011’s Soundwave lineup are coming together for one big show down south. With the Melbourne festival sold out, fans will still be able to catch Rob Zombie, Murderdolls, Monster Magnet and Dommin live at Festival Hall on March 3rd. All ages and licensed areas available, tickets go on sale Friday November 26th from Ticketmaster.

ROB ZOMBIE is hands down the most creative frontman in contemporary music. Sonically and visually, he has reshaped alternative rock, whilst simultaneously delivering one of the most exciting live shows in the world today. ROB ZOMBIE truly knows no bounds and breaks down every barrier in his way. A 7 time Grammy-nominated artist selling over 15 million albums worldwide, ROB ZOMBIE is as vibrant and demonic as ever. The gates of hell will be opened with one of the most exhilarating live shows you have ever witnessed so prepare for“an evening of rock and roll madness with metal’s resident spooky man, Rob Zombie…leave the kids at home…”- Rockworld.com

The undeniable pairing of Slipknot’s Joey Jordison and Wednesday 13 is more precisely pissed-off than ever before. Rock ?n? roll?s newest villains are here and they?re called MURDERDOLLS. Politically incorrect, playfully violent and happily inconsiderate, they?re back for more blood and back for revenge on their brand new album ?Women and Children Last?. ”Murderdolls have unleashed a sinfully satisfying experience of an album steeped in horrifyingly humorous lyrics and ravenous riffage.” – The New Review

MONSTER MAGNET will go down in music history as retro rock visionaries. Fusing their metal, punk, space rock, and psychedelic influences, the band developed a sludgy, feedback-heavy hard rock sound indulging their sex and drug-fueled fantasies. With the breakthrough release of ?Dopes to Infinity? featuring ?Negasonic Teenage Warhead? “they had created a shag carpeted soundtrack for the world that was “rawk: sexy, dark, melodic, celebratory and, above all, huge.” – Rolling Stone

DOMMIN is the sound of the brokenhearted. At the center of their haunting, gothic-tinged rock is the enigmatic Kristofer Dommin, who croons about poisonous love, exorcising agony through a wall of distortion and a jagged sonic sieve. DOMMIN?s vocals are eerie and extremely captivating, drawing you in with every breath; no where is this more evident than on their brand new album ?Love is Gone?…“it’s filled with distinctively-penned tunes targeted straight for the nightcrawlers of the metal underground.” – The Metal Minute
