American post-rock greats This Will Destroy You are marking their 20th
anniversary this year and they’ve announced an April 2025 tour
performing their 2008 self-titled album in full for the occasion,
along with songs from throughout their catalogue. The band will return
to Australia for the first time in 10 years, playing shows in Perth,
Adelaide, Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne. On this tour they will be
joined by Perth instrumental trio Yomi Ship, fresh from a European
tour alongside Plini and performing at ArcTanGent Festival in the UK,
as well as popular Sydney emo quartet Mowgli, on the cusp of releasing
their debut album in 2025. Formed in San Marcos, Texas, TWDY has
enjoyed a meteoric rise since the release of their debut ‘Young
Mountain’ in 2006. The abyss of endless touring and isolation on the
road became the catalyst for the band’s third album, “Tunnel
Blanket”. While previous albums managed to strike a universal chord
of human hope and near-optimism toward the future, “Tunnel
Blanket” reflects the dark and intricate sides of human emotion,
grief, and tragedy. After the release of a cathartic live album,
recorded in Rekjavik, Iceland, the band bunkered down for the release
of their fourth full length album, ‘Another Language’, featuring
pulsating washes of sound blended with an undeniable beauty of
composition. Known for their destructive live sound and influential
brand of ambient, melodic instrumental rock (dubbed ‘doom-gaze’ in
recent times), the band recently announced they would be splitting
into two touring line ups each led by one of their co-founding
guitarists, Jeremy Galindo and Christopher King. This Australian tour
lineup will be led by co-founding guitarist Jeremy Galindo and will
also feature fellow Texas musicians Ethan Billips (Body Tape, Blank
Hellscape), Johnnie McBryde and Nicholas Huft (Dismissal). The same
line up recently completed an extensive North American tour and
headlining tour of Europe, including Belgium’s prestigious Dunk
Festival and Indiana’s Post Festival. After several sell out shows
on their maiden tour of Australia in 2013, This Will Destroy You
captured the minds and hearts of a loyal following on this side of the
world. This Will Destroy You last toured Australia on their ‘Another
Language’ tour in 2015, selling out headline shows nationally and
combining for additional massive shows in Sydney and Melbourne
alongside sleepmakeswaves on their ‘Great Northern’ tour. Don’t
miss this chance to see this iconic group create beautiful noise down
under once again. VENUE INFO Howler Bar & Grill The kitchen will be
