RINGWORM "HAMMER OF THE WITCH" AUSTRALIAN TOUR MAY 2014
With Special Guests
AGAINST + CAGED GRAVE
Local supports have been announced for the upcoming Ringworm "Hammer Of The Witch" Australian tour, which kicks off in early May. The band will be headlining day one of Broken Hive’s Break The Ice Festival held in Melbourne, and will take on the East Coast for a short run of shows, wreaking a path of destruction on their way to the biggest hardcore fest of the year.
Formed in 1991, Ringworm show no signs of slowing down, even two decades since their debut release “The Promise” cemented the band as a force to be recognised in heavy music. Through “Birth Is Pain”, “Justice Replaced By Revenge”, “The Venomous Grand Design” and “Scars”, Ringworm have delivered blistering riffs and furious aggression and once again the thrash metal and hardcore hybrid will be released on new album “Hammer Of The Witch.” Ringworm will bring their destructive tunes to Australia in May, playing in Brisbane, Newcastle and Sydney on their way to two huge shows in Melbourne.
Joining the band on all dates will be Brisbane hardcore veterans Against, who are launching their new releases, including new full length album “Bring The End” released on Midnight Funeral in 2013 and new split 12” “Brotherhood” with recent tourists, Austria’s Bloodshed Remains. Opening the package up will be Melbourne’s Caged Grave. New kids on the block, the powerviolence hardcore group is made up of members of classic Australian bands like In Name And Blood, 4 Dead and Reincarnation.
