The Smashing Pumpkins Lead Third & Final Soundwave Announce

Steel Panther, Millencolin, Falling In Reverse and more round out the 2015 event's spectacular roster

Legendary alt-rock outfit The Smashing Pumpkins sit atop the final crop of acts set to join the 2015 Soundwave Festival line-up, freshly revealed by the annual event today.

Joining Billy Corgan & Co aboard the big list will be glam metal luminaries Steel Panther, punk-scene vets Millencolin, post-hardcore mainstays Falling In Reverse, stalwart US metal outfit Exodus, trailblazing punk rockers The Vandals, Long Beach-bred rockers Rival Sons, Aussie grindcore workhorses King Parrot and Irish indie-rock outfit Raglans.

 
 

The new recruits join an already-epic cabal of acts including Slash, Faith No More, Marilyn Manson and Fall Out Boy, as well as second-announce additions such as Killer Be Killed, Animals As Leaders, Evergreen Terrace and He Is Legend, plus many, many more.

Soundwave 2015 kicks off on Saturday 21 Feb and Sunday 22 Feb, at Adelaide's Bonython Park and Melbourne's Flemington Racecourse. Tickets are on sale now. For more news and information about the festival, including the full, completed line-up, see our dedicated event page.
