For the Sydney and Brisbane dates, they’ll be joined by Striborg, the solo project of noise musician Russell Menzies. Tickets will go on sale tomorrow (28th April) from 10am. Today also sees the band release a new single, ‘HATEFUL’. Listen to that below.
HEALTH – ‘HATEFUL’
It’s been a long minute since HEALTH visited Australia, with the band most recently touring the country in 2016 as part of Laneway Festival, on the back of their third album, Death Magic. They released follow-up Vol. 4: Slaves of Fear in 2019.
In 2020 and 2022, the band released the first and second instalments of their two-part Disco4 series. The collaboration-heavy project saw them unite with a vast array of artists, including Nine Inch Nails, JPEGMAFIA, 100 gecs, Lamb of God, Soccer Mommy, Full of Hell, The Body, Backxwash, Ho99o9 and many more.
In addition to HEALTH, this year’s Dark Mofo lineup includes the likes of Deafheaven, Thundercat, Ethel Cain, Sleaford Mods and many others. Check out the program for this year’s edition of the festival here.
