THIS SATURDAY - TO THE GRAVE 🪦

Australian deathcore firestarters To The Grave have barely allowed themselves a moment’s rest since expanding their frontlines into the international circuit in 2023. Relentless global touring has seen them take their apocalyptic message of animal liberation, misanthropic furore and musings on environmental catastrophe to stages shared across the globe with the likes of Lorna Shore, Signs of The Swarm, I Killed The Prom Queen, Carnifex, Thy Art Is Murder and Shadow of Intent. All of this executed off the back of the methodically violent dropping of 2021’s ‘Epilogue’, 2023’s ‘Director’s Cuts’ and 2024’s ‘Everyone’s A Murderer’ albums through extreme metal institution Unique Leader Records.

From Sydney’s Northern Beaches, C.O.F.F.I.N return to stages across Australia in February and March 2027 for their biggest Australian headline shows to date, off the back of their new album, ‘Out In Oslo’.

Released September 18 via p(doom) records, the label run by King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard, and produced by Declan Mehrtens of Amyl and The Sniffers, ‘Out In Oslo’ sees C.O.F.F.I.N push further into sonic exploration, pairing the high-energy edge and bite that has defined them with the band’s most ambitious and fully realised studio production and song-writing yet.

Look at the state of us, we’re always falling for After.

Untitled Group and Beyond The Valley are pleased to present After for their debut Australian headline tour this January. Drawing inspiration from artists spanning Michelle Branch, Portishead, Fountains of Wayne and Enigma, After have crafted a sound that pairs Justine Dorsey’s ethereal vocals with Graham Epstein’s immersive production, creating a unique meeting point between early-2000s pop songwriting and cinematic trip-hop.

After is the Y2K, trip-hop, pop band you always knew you needed because you once heard it in a dream. That dream becomes reality on their Australian debut tour this January.
