Australia, the wait is officially over; today, deathcore icons Lorna Shore announce their first ever Australian tour in 2025, set to be joined by special guests Bodysnatcher and To The Grave.
A band truly like no other, Lorna Shore have survived and thrived against insurmountable odds over the years. Hailing from New Jersey, the group forged their present lineup and sound in 2020 against the backdrop of a pandemic, a singer change, and cancelled tours. Emerging with staggering new vigour via their 2021 EP ...And I Return To Nothingness and their 2022 full length album Pain Remains, the Lorna Shore rebirth rose like a guttural phoenix in a blazing display of raw emotion, technical prowess, and unforgettable twists and turns that garnered chart and critical success on a global scale.
Solidified with the insatiable vocal stylings of Will Ramos joining the fold, debuting officially on ...And I Return To Nothingness, Lorna Shore have since catapulted onto the cover of Britain's Rock Sound, supported Australian metalcore juggernauts Parkway Drive, snagged viral status on TikTok, generated millions of streams, and ticked off a sold out UK headline run, with their live energy also hammering home the group's boundless stranglehold on the realms of modern and innovative extreme metal.
Finally set to tick off their first ever Australian tour in 2025, Lorna Shore will arrive armed with their towering riffs, complex arrangements and visceral bombasity; come and venture To the Hellfire in 2025.
Forming in Melbourne, Florida, Bodysnatcher deal in all things dark, furious and sonically threatening. Proudly and loudly putting the "core" back in deathcore, Bodysnatcher have graced stages supporting the likes of Chelsea Grin and Slaughter To Prevail, with the band also in command of multiple albums and EPs, including 2017's Death of Me, 2020's This Heavy Void and 2022's Bleed-Abide.
Australia's To The Grave have emerged as "one of Australia's heaviest exports" (Revolver), with the militant vegan deathcore crew ticking off sold out national headline runs in 2022 and 2023, as well as support slots alongside Cattle Decapitation, Thy Art Is Murder and Carnifex. A band anchored by ambition and conscience, To The Grave recently released their gripping new album Director's Cuts in 2023.
