News : Grindcore 2009 announced for Melbourne

Grindcore 2009 will deliver the ultimate in speed, heaviness and extremity with Fuck… I’m Dead leading the charge with a whirlwind of blistering and blood-soaked death metallized grindcore. Agents Of Abhorrence train their excessive arsenal of technical-grind smart-weapons on any who sand in their path, and South Australia’s pride and joy Captain Cleanoff bring the wildest, most ear-shredding, circle-pit inducing grind heard for years! The Kill push grindcore to (and past) its limits of speed and insanity through sheer blastbeat driven white-knuckle fury while The Day Everything Became Nothing shove us willingly or otherwise toward apocalypse as their subsonic overkill opens the earth up to swallow us whole.

Roskopp’s malformed and uncomfortable fusion of old school primitivism and jackhammering modern grindcore drills through your brainpan after New South Welshmen Beyond Terror Beyond Grace open your skull with one swift slice of their precise and hyper-fast razorgrind! The maniacal Super Fun Happy Slide bring the chaos with an infectious slip’n’slide lubricated with chunder, napalm and sewage, following the heavyweight riffage of the monstrous Shagnum whose blunt force traumatizing is a sublime punishment to gluttonously submit to, and openers Doubled Over begin proceedings with a kneecapping blow of crippling blast-grind fused with pestilential, crawling sludge/doom!

As if that wasn’t a harrowing enough experience, all attendees will receive a free 20 track Grindcore 2009 compilation CD to re-live the thrill and terror of this most distressing event!

Doors open at 7pm so get in early for a non-stop whirlwind of aural violence across 2 stages! 18+
