A band relentlessly poised on the cutting edge of heavy music, THE PLOT IN YOU have cultivated ongoing critical acclaim and fan adoration since first forming 15 years ago. Hailing from Ohio, the group announced themselves to the scene via their 2011 debut album, First Born, paving the way for their soon-to-be-signature balanced and innovative take on metalcore tropes. Whether weaving elements of alternative, electronica, pop, R&B and beyond into their raw yet thunderous sound, one thing is always certain when it comes to THE PLOT IN YOU: expect the unexpected and hang on for an exhilarating ride.
Erupting out of Texas in 2011, FIT FOR A KING swiftly carved out a name for themselves with a blistering style rooted in metal and hardcore, while also balancing out their raucous tendencies with plenty of hypnotic hooks and searing honesty for good measure. Releasing their breakout album in 2013, Creation/Destruction which debuted at #6 on the Hard Rock Chart, FIT FOR A KING have gone on to command multiple Top 5 debuts on the Billboard Charts, generate millions of streams, including fan-favourite tracks like ‘When Everything Means Nothing’, ‘The Price of Agony’ and ‘Breaking the Mirror’, and have extensively toured the globe with Killswitch Engage, Motionless In White, I Prevail, Parkway Drive and The Devil Wears Prada. Most recently the group released their seventh studio album, 2022’s The Hell We Create, which scored critical acclaim for its soundscapes, instrumentation and lyrical vulnerability. FIT FOR A KING cherish unwavering honesty, even under dark skies, and their live show is the stuff of legend.
Connecticut metalcore collective BOUNDARIES have infused metallic hardcore with powerful melodies and poignant honesty since first emerging back in 2014. Unleashing a string of EPs ahead of their 2020 debut studio album, Your Receding Warmth, BOUNDARIES would follow on with 2022’s Burying Brightness and 2024’s Death Is Little More, with the latter spawning millions of individual streams via tracks like ‘Easily Erased’, ‘Scars On A Soul’, and ‘Turning Hate Into Rage’. Whether performing with Counterparts, Lorna Shore and Currents, or at their own headline shows, BOUNDARIES are renowned for their live presence and bring a perfect balance of chaos and unity to the table at all times.
Welding the intensity of metal with the energy of electronic and hip hop influences, heavy metal boyband BANKS ARCADE continue to cement themselves as one of the most innovative bands in the Australasian scene. Drawing influences from Saint JHN, Kublai Khan and Charlie XCX, BANKS ARCADE constantly teeter on the edge of modernity while defying genre boundaries, with their high energy performances and distinctive sound garnering a dedicated global fanbase. Having previously toured with the likes of Northlane and Holding Absence, sold out headline shows, and tours across the USA and the UK, BANKS ARCADE continues to sharply redefine what a modern heavy band can be.
Kick off 2026 with a bang with THE PLOT IN YOU returning down under next January – this is a tour absolutely not to be missed!
