LIVE PHOTOS: OBITUARY With Special Guests PSYCROPTIC & BLACK LAVA

The Croxton, Melbourne - Jan 12th 2024

Combining hyper-speed guitar riffing, complex arrangements and guttural screams, the band created a bleak and violent soundscape all of their own. After more than 35 years in the pit, OBITUARY continue to peak and dominate the genre worldwide. Remaining to this very day as one of the most influential and ground breaking bands in the death metal genre, one which they helped to create.

With the memory of 2020’s sold out ‘Cause Of Death’ of Australian and New Zealand tour etched into the minds of every person there, OBITUARY are busting to kickstart 2024 right in the guts by herding their way south to rearrange venues, rumble stages and remind us all of the classic era of death metal by churning out a massive career spanning set including a choice slab of meaty cuts from the classic albums of their early years!!

More than two decades deep into their existence, PSYCROPTIC have reigned as kings of Australian death metal for the vast majority of that time. With their distinct technical sound, they have consistently maintained a strong, loyal, and long-lasting rapport with the fans.

Out at front and unfurling a swarm of hostility is Melbourne’s BLACK LAVA. Sharing a diverse compound of old school death, black and progressive metal influences, this imposing quartet will beyond a doubt impress all with their turbulent and devastatingly heavy offerings.
