With their latest, chart-topping album Asymmetry still fresh from the printers, Karnivool are getting together with sparring partners and downright decent dudes Dead Letter Circus, have announced that they will be heading out for a run of Australian tour dates that will have two of the country’s most beloved rock outfits in the same place on the same night.
The weight of this bill cannot be overstated when you consider that, simply a matter of days ago, Karnivool were performing to a sold-out crowd in Munich while Dead Letter Circus performed to a sold-out crowd in San Francisco. With both bands sporting new full-length records (DLC’s excellent sophomore effort The Catalyst Fire should not go unnamed) the chatter around both outfits couldn’t be higher, adding immeasurable amounts of buzz to the tour.
Under the banner of Polymorphism, the bands will be stopping by most major cities, with plenty of regional stop-offs along the way. It’s a safe bet that the reputation of these acts will proceed their arrival given that it hasn’t been so long since fans last got their fix of progressive Aussie rock from either band so demand for The Vool and DLC is perfectly inelastic.
Tickets are on sale Monday, 4th November from 9:00am AEDT via http://www.karnivool.com.au/tour
