Australia, strap yourself in, ‘cause dope and SOiL are joining forces to make one huge, hell of a show and throwing it our way! These two hard-hitting bands are renowned for their wild and industrial driven live shows, which will be sure to blow audiences when they both tour Australia’s east coast for the first time. dope, with their politically charged, sonic arsenal of sounds mixed with a grooving, melodic style appeals to metal fans across the board. Their live set has been described by reviewers as crazy, primal, tight and pumped full of raw energy, and they get their audience going wild, so you know you’re in for one hell of a show. Not only do these boys play kick-ass music, their sex-drugs-and-rock-n-roll attitude and swagger will leave you craving more of them.

SOiL’s live performances have continually been described as off the hook. New front man A.J. Cavalier had big shoes to fill, but has impressed audiences with his exemplary vocals ranging from groove infected rap, to throat destroying screams. Their completely unique style of hardcore mixed with new metal will reach through the speakers and paralyze your ears – it’s that good. Expect an insane night of metal when you come to see these two prime metal acts at one huge show. Your ears will be ringing for weeks!
