IMMINENCE ANNOUNCE AUSTRALIAN 2025 HEADLINE TOUR

One of the most in-demand acts in modern alternative music, today Swedish violincore pioneers IMMINENCE announce their return to Australian shores, set to bewitch crowds across the country with a headline run this October.

Ticking off their debut headline tour down under later this year, IMMINENCE will commence proceedings on Friday 10 October in Brisbane, before heading to Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide, and closing out in Perth on Wednesday 15 October.

A band bound to weaving their own unique sonic universe, pushing alternative metalcore into astonishing terrains that few could dream of, IMMINENCE have spent over a decade crafting their trademark take on the heavy realms. Blending classical string arrangements with the influence of ferocious Scandinavian metal, the ever-growing IMMINENCE success story spans millions of streams and online followers, performances at some of the biggest heavy festivals on the planet, and entirely sold out shows of their own, including their standalone Good Things Festival headline sideshows in Australia last year that sold out in record time.

Boasting an elegant ferocity that obliterates any genre confines, IMMINENCE have delivered fluctuating masterpieces over the years, from their debut 2014 album I, through to 2017’s This Is Goodbye, 2019’s Turn the Light On, 2021’s Heaven In Hiding and 2024’s The Black. 2024 also saw the band re-record their debut LP I for its 10th anniversary, releasing The Reclamation of I, while 2025 saw the group unveil The Return of The Black, expanding on the global triumph that was 2024’s The Black with re-mastered versions and a star-studded lineup of guest musicians for this special extended edition.

With IMMINENCE‘s signature style, aptly dubbed violincore by fans, there is no surprise that a live IMMINENCE experience is packed full of palpitating moments, balancing violin virtuosity with sprawling heaviness, enigmatic theatricality and raw intimacy, with Wall of Sound enthusing of their 2024 Australian performance that “if you weren’t touched by the heartfelt yet brutish screams, you were entranced by the swiping bow sending majestic screeches throughout the venue”.

While the Swedish maestros performed for the first time in Australia last year as part of Good Things Festival, their hotly-anticipated return to our shores this year will bring the full IMMINENCE headline experience. And with appearances locked for a horde of festivals before they return down under, including Hellfest, 2000trees Festival, Louder Than Life Festival and Aftershock, IMMINENCE‘s touring history over the years has also seen them share stages with giants of the heavy scene, including Bring Me The Horizon, Architects, In Flames and many more.

Offering a performance truly like no other, it’s little wonder that IMMINENCE‘s previous Aussie sideshows sold out in record time. Don’t miss your chance to witness the IMMINENCE magic as part of their first ever full Australian headline tour this October.

It’s a record that pulses with energy, joy, and cultural celebration — a snapshot of a band still reinventing itself 20 years in.
 
“We didn’t set out to make this record — it found us,” says frontman Felix Riebl. “It’s a celebration of spontaneity, togetherness, and letting music lead the way.”
 
With their unmistakable sound and boundary-pushing spirit, The Cat Empire continue to build a global legacy. Don’t miss your chance to experience The Cat Empire at their most electric — with flamenco dancers, borderless soundscapes, and a kaleidoscope of sound and colour that’ll have you grooving from the first beat to the last.

PAIN Release New Video For ‘I Am

PAIN Release New Video For ‘I Am’

PAIN havereleased their brand-new video for ‘I Am‘. The album I Am was released on May 17th 2024 via Nuclear Blast Records. Filled with anthems like ‘Don’t Wake The Dead‘ and the hit single ‘Party In My Head‘, alongside atmospheric tracks such as ‘I Am‘ and ‘Fair Game,’ the album seamlessly blends uplifting catchiness with introspective moments, marking Tägtgren’s most personal and boldest work to date.

Peter Tägtgren comments: “I’m excited to see what Andrey came up with this time..”

Watch the video for ‘I Am’ here: https://youtu.be/l4XA8WzPpuE

I Am Tracklist:

About PAIN:

It’s 2021 and a pandemic is strangling the world – and no one seems to be having fun. Seemingly tireless music freak Peter Tägtgren couldn’t care less as he hits the jackpot with – pardon the harsh language – a fucking catchy… well, party anthem. We are of course talking about the song ‘Party in My Head’ by Tägtgren’s synth-infused metal project PAIN.

“I don’t really know what it is about ‘Party in My Head’ that made – still makes – people go crazy for it… But what I do know for sure is that the song has already been enjoyed millions and millions of times. The numbers are pretty crazy! Of course, PAIN is no stranger to writing danceable and catchy, albeit metallic shit… It’s always been in the DNA of this project. But let’s face it: if the world really needs ‘party anthems’ from a cynical geezer like me, something’s seriously wrong”, Peter laughs.

Our beloved planet may be screwed, but there still doesn’t seem to be much wrong in PAIN‘s world as 2024 ticks fast on the calendar. There simply can’t be, because PAIN‘s eagerly awaited new studio album ‘I Am‘ is soon here – yes, after eight years of devoted waiting.

“The previous record “Coming Home” came out in 2016 – and of course there was a tour after that. In 2019, I released an album called “F & M” with Rammstein singer Till Lindemann, a project I left in 2020. In 2021, it was time for my death metal band Hypocrisy to get active with a new album “Worship” – and of course we toured again. If that wasn’t enough, let’s add that there was a studio album with Joe Lynn Turner in 2022… In other words: the last eight years have passed in the blink of an eye”, Peter sighs.

“After all this, it was the perfect time for PAIN to go full force again. I felt excited to say the least. Needless to say, the success of ‘Party in My Head’ gave the album process an explosive start!”

Let’s get one thing straight: the powerful-sounding I Am is truly a versatile – if not the most versatile – musical missile in PAIN‘s rich discography. The new songs go everywhere with heavy industrial riffs, haunting melancholic vibes and groove-filled rhythms – without forgetting surprises, of course.

“There’s no boundaries with PAIN. I just get an interesting idea for a song and along the way it can turn into anything. Sometimes I also like to deliberately surprise people by following an exciting musical path where unexpected things happen”, Peter describes.

“If I had one big goal this time, it was to add more intensity and edge to the songs. “Coming Home” turned out great, but looking back now, I was maybe a little too deep into my ‘David Bowie worship’ with the orchestral stuff and the acoustic guitars. This time around, I definitely wanted more tempo, aggressiveness and an industrial atmosphere. Going back towards the old times of PAIN? Maybe a bit…”

“I Am” is also more of a family affair than ever before. My son Sebastian – also a PAIN drummer – wrote the music of ‘Revolution’ and ‘Don’t Wake the Dead’. These absorbing songs add width to an already versatile album. All in all, completing “I Am” required a lot of composing, writing, thinking, experimenting, doing and re-doing. It was a long and sometimes challenging process, but never painful!”

Speaking of surprises… What song will give fans the biggest wow effect this time?

“It must be ‘Go With the Flow’. I dare to insist that when it starts rolling, even the deep connoisseurs of PAIN music are wondering what the heck is going on here. I would say it’s my ‘Depeche Mode in the 80s’ song'”, Peter laughs.

“Lyrically, ‘Go With the Flow’ represents a slightly brighter moment in the darkness. I always tend to think that everything is going to hell, but with this song I tell myself, ‘come on dude, let things be for once and go with the flow’.”

There may be these rare rays of light from the beacon, but darkness still prevails.

“The album’s title track starts with the line ‘there’s no hope in the valley of death’. And if I look at the lyrics, I could dig up a lot other examples of similar sinister moods. But hey, a sarcastic guy like me and such gloomy times we live in… Are you expecting some sunny faces here? Well, sunny or not, PAIN is going to be busy for the foreseeable future. There will be a lot of touring to support the record. Summer festivals, extensive tours here and there and more”, Peter says.

“And what about the future anyway? Ask me again in eight years and there have been a few studio albums from different bands, a lot of gigs and something else. Yes, I am what “I Am”…”

LOVE/HATE Announces January 2026 First-Ever Australian Tour

LOVE/HATE ANNOUNCES FIRST-EVER AUSTRALIAN TOUR

Celebrating 35 Years of Blackout in the Red Room with a Full Album Performance, plus material from the entire Love/Hate catalogue.

For the first time in their storied career, LOVE/HATE is set to ignite Australian stages with an electrifying tour celebrating the 35th anniversary of their seminal debut album, Blackout in the Red Room. This landmark event will feature the album performed in its entirety, alongside selections from the entire Love/Hate catalogue.

Released in 1990, Blackout in the Red Room captured the raw energy of the Sunset Strip with tracks like ‘Why Do You Think They Call It Dope?’, ‘Rock Queen’, and the title track. Whilst the band stood out aesthetically and sonically from their LA counterparts at the time, the albums influence resonated deeply within the glam, sleaze, hard rock and metal communities, becoming a cult classic celebrated for its rebellious spirit and unforgettable hooks.

Love/Hate is fronted by Jizzy Pearl, a name that needs no introduction given Jizzy stands as a luminary of the Los Angeles metal scene with a career spanning over four decades.

As the frontman of Love/Hate, Jizzy delivered the bands critically acclaimed debut, and then its brilliant follow up Wasted In America. The band has continued to release albums, with the only constant being its frontman, since 1993 and capped by their latest 2025 release, Punk Rock Fiesta! which has been lauded for its infectious energy and unapologetic sound.

Beyond Love/Hate, Pearl’s dynamic vocals have graced bands like L.A. Guns, Ratt and for the past twelve years, he has been the frontman of Quiet Riot and their relentless touring schedule. Pearl has certainly solidified his legacy in hard rock history.

This tour promises an unparalleled experience for fans of glam, sleaze, and hard rock. Witnessing Jizzy Pearl’s powerhouse vocals and the band’s relentless performance is a rare opportunity for Australian audiences.

As Get Ready To Rock noted during the bands recent UK tour, “Love/Hate frontman Jizzy Pearl led his current incarnation of the band through a decade-defying gig that was reminiscent of the original band back in the day”

With limited tickets available, fans are encouraged to secure their spots promptly to avoid missing this rare chance to see and hear one of the most recognisable voices in hard rock on our shores.
