FREE YOUR MIND 2014 LOCAL SUPPORTS ANNOUNCED!

Northlane have unveiled the full local lineup for FREE YOUR MIND, the 2014 version of their own curated mini-fest this coming May. The festival will be headlined by Northlane, and will include Thy Art Is Murder, Veil Of Maya (USA), Volumes (USA) and Make Them Suffer.

Last month, TheMusic.com.au hosted a competition giving local up and coming artists the chance to open a show on the Free Your Mind Tour. The winners for each date have now been chosen by Northlane and The Music.

The Free Your Mind lineup features Thy Art Is Murder, who recently caught the attention of fans and national media for their onstage antics at Soundwave. Like Northlane, Thy Art Is Murder have become a worldwide touring act in the last 18 months, as overseas markets swarm to hear their unique take on the heavy genre. On their way to Free Your Mind, they will complete huge European and North American tours.

Two international acts will appear on the lineup. Chicago based metal band Veil Of Maya recently took Northlane to the USA where the two acts packed out rooms across the country. Considered one of the pioneers of the “djent” sound, they recently released their new single ‘Subject Zero’ which is expected to be followed by their 5th album later this year.

Volumes, who hail from Los Angeles, are preparing to come to Australia for the second time. Their debut album VIA was released on Mediaskare Records in 2012, and transformed them into one of the hottest upcoming metal bands.

Perth based Make Them Suffer will round out the bill. As friends and peers of Northlane, the two artists will finally tour together after a series of festival appearances on the same bill since the release of their Roadrunner Records debut, Neverbloom.

The Free Your Mind enhanced ticket bundle will allow fans unrestricted access to the band for an intimate meet & greet session, as well as being able to score exclusive items such as a Free Your Mind Tour T-Shirt and a limited edition poster. A portion of each “Enhanced Bundle” will be donated to charity. Premium Bundles are still available for Brisbane, Canberra, Newcastle, Adelaide and Perth.
