UK post-punk and Industrial pioneers ATTRITION are touring Australia for the very first time in October 2024! While Attrition make an extensive trek across the Land Down Under, Melbourne Rivetheads will experience an extra fiendish extravaganza with a special Halloween show at the Gasometer Hotel.From leading the Industrial charge in the 1980s, Attrition have scarcely rested on their laurels, having unleashed their latest creation on the world in March 2024. Their new album The Black Maria is a darkly cinematic foray into neo-classical ambience, fuelled by an anarchistic temperament as potent now as it was in the 80s.
Joining Attrition across the entire tour will be Sydney’s Industrial-Crust powerhouse SCHKEUDITZER KREUZ, who recently released the third single ‘Ratchet’ from their latest album No Life Left (2023). No Life Left is a crushing slab of dark, abrasive, apocalyptic, post-Industrial music, guaranteed to transport your mindscape to the inevitable end of humanity.
Bringing Gothic beauty and further Industrial fervour to the line-up is Melbourne’s DEATH OF ART. The beloved pillars of the Melbourne Goth scene, fronted by the spellbinding Erin Blackie, are well-versed in international supports with previous shows with Wednesday 13 and PAIN in their extensive history.
Completing the line-up is Melbourne-based Darkwave/Synthpop act PALLIATIVE, uniting the spirit of the past with the shadow of the future through a blend of 80s-inspired Darkwave and Futurepop. The funeral march will begin promptly with this opening act, and the entire ceremony will bring the congregation of this All Hallows Eve to a ritualistic communion with death and beyond.
The rite is proudly presented by BOOT SEQUENCE, Melbourne’s live Industrial, EBM and Synthpop nightclub.
