Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes Announce Australian Tour

Oh, god, we can already see the chaotic mess of stage dives and sweaty bodies unfolding before us.

Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes will make their live Australian debut this December for three intimate live shows. Something tells me that "intimate" will be the nice way of describing these shows.

Ever since the release of the band's 2015 debut effort, 'Blossom', I've been counting down the days until Carter and his cohorts came down our way for a headline tour. Alas, my prayers have been answered. Well, at least in the form of a small East Coast tour (but you know what they say about beggars being choosers).

Tickets for this December tour, which is presented by DAL, Chugg, & Bombshellzine will go on sale Wednesday, August 31st, 9am local time through Destroy All Lines. Dates below.

Friday 9th - The Reverence Hotel, Melbourne (18+)

Saturday 10th - The Brightside, Brisbane (18+)

Sunday 11th - Bald Faced Stag, Sydney (Lic/AA)

Stream the band's latest song 'Snake Eyes' below, and while it may not be as intense as some of the band's other work, you just know that shit will go off when this is played live. 'Fangs' is also bound to be a time and a half when they play it, too. Also, Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes is better than the Frank Carter era of Gallows. Cheers.
