ORIGIN with guests, A Million Dead Birds Laughing & Eternal Rest

Quite possibly the most destructive and heaviest tour of the year will roar across the nation this May with US tech-death giants, Origin leading, A Million Dead Birds Laughing and Eternal Rest through a six date reign of terror.

One of the most intense and technical forces in the contemporary death metal world, Origin have staked their claim as leaders of the new wave of extremity. Their fifth album, Entity, is a blueprint for frantic, hell paced grinds of sonic torment seamlessly mixed with churning grooves and some incredibly catchy hooks. With new vocalist Jason Keyser out the front, the band are prepped to tear Australia a new one.

With an eclectic take on grindcore and tech-death, Melbourne's A Million Dead Birds Laughing have carved their own unique niche out of the scene. Taking their art to the utmost extreme in execution and presentation, they have impressed all with their work ethic and showmanship, which has led to several big name support slots. Album number three, Bloom, sees the band reach a new level of maturity and focus.

Brisbane's Eternal Rest continue to spread their meticulous and venomous brand of technical ferocity to all in their path. Their immense sonic assault led to a deal with US label Deepsend Records who have just released their crushing debut album, Prophetic. Like a crazed sociopath wielding a cut throat razor, Eternal Rest reside on the edge of sanity and human endurance taking you to the blackest, most extreme depths of hell while pummeling your senses. Immerse yourself in their craft and revel in their mastery.

Prepare yourself for a night of depraved aural madness. You won't be the same afterwards.
