Is this the most brutally awesome tour of the year?

More Thy Art Is Murder More Thy Art Is Murder

Finally, months after the release of their incredible, ARIA charting studio album Hate, Sydney's Thy Art Is Murder are heading home for a tour of Australia in support of that record, and it is going to be an almighty one!

The band have garnered worldwide acclaim over the past year or so and have been busy keeping the vibe alive over the past few months, proving to whoever they can that they are the one of the premier extreme metal outfits on the planet right now.

They bring with them one of the most controversial bands in the extreme metal genre today, San Diego's Cattle Decapitation, a band who have constantly pushed boundaries across their seven record career and apparently have a live show that retains that horrific brilliance and churns it out with gusto. This will be their first ever visit to our shores and a lot of people will be very excited that their wait is finally over.
