STORM THE SWAMPS II 

The second storm cometh! 

WALLET INSPECTOR 

Melbourne based 4-piece instrumental group ‘Wallet Inspector’ blend many elements to create a unique progressive metal sound borrowing elements from technical death metal, jazz fusion and funk. Making their live debut in 2021 the band has played alongside acts including The Omnific, Whoretopsy, Zeolite, Dyssidia, Hysterectomy. This will be the first show of their NZ tour before heading down to Wellington and Christchurch for Ritual Division IV! 

PARASITIC INFESTATION 

Barely needing an introduction, Tāmaki Makaurau's overlords of psychedelic slam have been billed with some of the planet's heaviest hitters this year already, supporting Suffocation and Jungle Rot in April with Plague Of The Fallen. With new music and another physical release at the ready, another season of slam is upon us!
