Their unique tapestry of progressive metal laced with raw rock power is at once fluid, monumental, and striking. Their fourth record, the 2017 immense concept album In Contact, left audiences breathless as it cracked the Top 50 ARIA charts. Following their highly successful headline ‘Love Conquers All’ Australian Tour in August 2018, they sojourned to Europe in October to headline the 'In Contact - All Aussie Invasion’ Tour; 27 shows including 5 festivals Euroblast, ProgPower, Very Prog, AMFest and Damnation, plus a sold out London show. Their breathtaking live performances continue to receive rave reviews worldwide for their elegance, intensity and sheer emotional power.  CALIGULA'S HORSE  BEYOND CREATION were guests on NeO’s Citadel tour in 2014 so fans will be familiar with the Canadian progressive death metallers. The band spent 3 solid years on the road promoting their Earthborn Evolution album and playing almost every festival there is and gaining a legion of fans in the process. This ultimately led to their 3rd album, the recently released, Algorythm, becoming one of the most highly anticipated heavy releases of 2018! Beyond Creation are now considered one of the worldwide leaders in modern technical death metal, and Algorythm is a study in the forward motion of intelligent, progressive extremity.  BEYOND CREATION  ALLEGAEON have been described by Metal Hammer Magazine as ’the new face of ruthless modern death metal’ and they would be correct. The Colorado natives deliver a musically complex, intelligent, and absorbing sound that can rightfully sit alongside the true greats of the genre. Lauded for their extreme technicality and capacity for writing music of truly epic scale, the band embody the term ‘progressive’ more than most, with their current release, Proponent For Sentience featuring orchestral movements and even throat singing! The band toured with Ne Obliviscaris on their North American and European headline tours in 2017/18. Having racked up over 60 shows together, NeO are finally bringing them to Australia for their first ever visit to our shores!  ALLEGAEON  RIVERS OF NIHIL will be venturing to Australia for the first time ever on The Painted Progression tour. Their third album, Where Owls Know My Name, was released in early 2018 and has featured on many ‘best of 2018’ end of year lists from heavy music media around the globe. While being punishing purveyors of modern death metal, the band also assimilate ingredients from musical genres as varied as electronica, jazz, alternative and folk. The result is indescribably progressive; a multifaceted soundscape that goes beyond the wildest dreams of even the group’s most ardent admirers. Metal Wani called the bands live show, 'a mind numbing force of modern death metal with a vivid darkness in the sound'  RIVERS OF NIHIL What a line up. HOLY CRAP !!
