The hardcore scene is currently witnessing an explosion of growth unlike anything we have ever witnessed. This growth is spurred on in equal parts by an injection of new fury, and a respect for those that have made it what it was. It is with that understanding that Kublai Khan TX are proud to announce their first ever Australian headline tour, bringing scene legends Terror, and metallic UK shredders Guilt Trip along for the ride on their debut trip downunder & Newcastle upcomers Splinter.
Since 2008 Kublai Khan have built a die-hard following, from their breakthrough single “The Hammer”, the band were made a household name across the hardcore scene, following that up with albums Absolute and most rececently their EP Lowest Form Of Animal, and singles Theory of Mind and Low Tech, Kublai Khan TX have proven their worth as one of the best and most exciting bands in the hardcore scene today.
For over 20 years now, Terror have put in the world to not just build themselves up, but by building every single band around them up too. The consistency of the LA five piece to produce relentless hardcore both in the studio and on the stage is testament to their work ethic and their passion for hardcore music around the world.
Joining these two heavy weights are UK shredders Guilt Trip, and their debut visit to Australian shores. Fresh off releasing their sophomore album Severance, the band has begun to take over the world with their unique take on hardcore, incorporating flashes of 80’s thrash and 90’s metal to their brutal style of beatdown hardcore.
Rounding out the package is Newcastle up and comers Splinter who recently dropped their latest EP The Hill I’ll Die On to rave reviews across the Australian scene. The young act has already shared the stage with the likes of Speed, The Acacia Strain, End, and more, they are hungry to sink their teeth into more of Australia and show just what they can do.
