Destroy All Lines PresentsTHE GHOST INSIDEANNOUNCE GOING DOWN UNDER TOURWITH SPECIAL GUESTBLEED FROM WITHIN
Set to ignite Australian stages in 2025, California metalcore collective THE GHOST INSIDE return to Australia for their first headline tour in over a decade this October joined by special guest BLEED FROM WITHIN.Opening proceedings on Sunday 19 October in Fremantle, the Going Down Under Tour will make stops in Adelaide, Melbourne and Sydney before closing out in Brisbane on Sunday 26 October.Armed with passion and determination that has captivated a global audience for decades, THE GHOST INSIDE forge the new wave of American metalcore dexterity with the urgency of punk and dauntless melodies, all of which have permeated and fortified across six studio albums, countless tours and millions of streams.Starting life in the mid 2000s, THE GHOST INSIDE have spent decades releasing captivating bangers like Engine 45, Avalanche, Aftermath, Wash It Away and Pressure Point; songs that are anthems for outcasts but also outings that offer oscillations between captivating catharsis, gripping ferocity and chest-thumping choruses. While THE GHOST INSIDE have always channeled notions of resilience, perseverance and vulnerability, the group's harrowing bush crash experienced in 2015 followed by the pandemic surrounding their 2020 self-titled return release only heightened the group's sonic potency, firmly turning adversity into triumph and ultimately emerging in 2024 with their sixth studio album, Searching for Solace.Most recently touring in Australia supporting Parkway Drive last year, touring nationally as part of Parkway Drive's massive 20th anniversary headline run, THE GHOST INSIDE have previously shared stages around the world with Underoath, A Day To Remember and Every Time I Die, and are imminently set to join Volbeat on a North American run starting next month.
Glasgow metal pioneers BLEED FROM WITHIN have relentlessly evolved and enamoured since first forming back in 2005, expanding their early deathcore leanings into an irresistible blend that captures grooves, searing riffage, hypnotic grooves and much more into their signature sound. Recently releasing their seventh studio album, Zenith, last month, BLEED FROM WITHIN were praised by KERRANG! for their "ear-gouging vocals and stomach churning grooves" while Metal Hammer declared the band as "one of the UK's most vital and consistent metal bands". From incorporating bagpipes into their beautiful brutality through to commanding stages alongside Slipknot, Bullet For My Valentine and Trivium, BLEED FROM WITHIN also stormed the mainstage at the UK's Download festival in 2024, further cementing their stake as a must-see act for the ages.Don't miss your chance to witness two international metalcore juggernauts tearing through Australia this October - tickets for the Going Down Under Tour will definitely be going fast!Day of Contempt lies in the depths of the metal, hardcore crossover.The Adelaide, Australia based band dominated through an onslaught of throat-shredding vocals and heavy, abrasive guitars, reinforced by smashed out, beats.
