One of the most polarising bands in modern music, Falling In Reverse could well be a part of the 2014 Soundwave bill if everything goes to plan in the coming months.
AJ Maddah has spoken about trying to get the band to Australian numerous times in the past, but it is believed he has been unable to do so due to complications stemming from controversial frontman Ronnie Radke's inability to get a visa to tour Australia.
Last night Maddah said that the band are confirmed to appear on the Soundwave 2014 bill, so long as the paperwork in in order.
@1988_damien They're confirmed but I won't announce them till we have visas approved.

Radke served over two years in prison after violating probation he was put on following his involvement in an altercation in his home city of Las Vegas in which a young man died. The incident saw Radke lose his place in the band Escape The Fate, who continued with former Blessthefall vocalist Craig Mabbitt. He formed Falling In Reverse while in prison and has gone on to release two albums since his release in 2008.
