Having left Australia wanting more the last time they were
here, VENOM INC are set to pack it out down under yet again! Formed
as Venom in 1979 in Newcastle upon Tyne, England. And coming to
prominence towards the end of the New Wave of British heavy
metal, Venom's first two albums Welcome to Hell (1981) and Black
Metal (1982)are considered a major influence on thrash metal and
extreme metal in general. Venom's second album proved influential
enough that its title was used as the name of an extreme Metal
sub-genre: Black Metal. During the 80s, Venom were THE extreme
band, releasing more classic albums such as At War With Satan (1984),
Possessed (1985) and countless classic, live albums, such as the
Assault Live album series and the legendary Eine Kleine Nachtmusik
(1986)Double LP and the The Seventh Date of Hell: Live At Hammersmith
Odeon Video which helped launch Metallica, who were the support band
for Venoms tour. Following Cronos departure from the band, Tony
Dolan (The Demolition Man) fromAtomkraft, stepped in
filling Cronos big, red boots, most admirably. And recording four
releases with Venom: Prime Evil (1989), Tear Your Soul Apart (1990),
Temples of Ice (1991), The Waste Lands (1992). Hardline are looking
forward to welcoming Venom Inc back after their highly
successfulAvé Australis Tour in 2018, and the infamously killer,
one-off Venom Inc Frankiesappearance, just last week. Dont miss out
on the band, full throttle, in 2020! FOR THEIR FIRST TIME IN AUSTRALIA
- EXCITER ARE HEADING DOWN UNDER!!! LONG LIVE THE LOUD!!! Exciter are
coming! Hailing from Ottawa Canada, and formed in 1978, Australia
finally gets a dose of Speed/Thrash Metal demons Exciter! Named
after the Judas Priest song, Exciter are considered to be one of
the originals of the Speed and Thrash Metal genres. In 1983 they
released their first album, Heavy Metal Maniac, on Shrapnel Records.
Later that year, they signed a deal with Jon Zazulas Megaforce
Records, which led to the 1984 release of their second album Violence
and Force. This material was toured on bills opening
for Anthrax and Mercyful Fate. History would bring many more
revered releases by the band, such as Long Live the Loud (1985), and
Unveiling the Wicked' (1986), to name just a couple. More tours also
followed, with bands like Accept, Manowar, Motörhead and Megadeth.
It is with much anticipation, that we finally welcome Exciter to
Aussie shores! Dont miss your chance to witness this epic double bill
live in June, 2020!!!
