As I Lay Dying and Emmure

Fri Mar 26th, 2010

Auckland

New Zealand

Doors open: 7:00 pm
Entry: All Ages

San Diego's Metal legends AS I LAY DYING need no introduction. Since the release of their 2003 debut 'Frail Words Collapse' on Metal Blade Records, the band has gone on to become one of the most influential metal acts of the last decade. Headlining numerous festivals and tours across the globe, selling well over half a million records and picking up a trophy room full of awards, this is the one metal machine that you don't want to miss seeing live as they hit New Zealand's shores for the first time for a one off performance at Auckland City's Transmission Room on Friday 26th March.

Coming out of Queens, New York, EMMURE are leading the way for the new generation of pissed off, mosh driven hardcore. The band have released 3 albums to date on Victory Records and have toured worldwide in support of their releases to an overwhelming response and an ever-growing legion of loyal fans. Emmure's 2009 record 'Felony' has created much hype in USA and worldwide and New Zealand fans will have the opportunity to see the band live for one night only as they land in the country hot off the tail of their Australian dates with Machine Head, Hatebreed & Bleeding Through before returning to the U.S. to hit the road on 2010's legendary Vans Warped Tour.

Rounding off the mid-card are East Coast hardcore heavyweights SAVING GRACE who since 2005 have been making their mark on New Zealand and beyond with a strong touring history in Australasia, Mexico and the U.S. as well as a myriad of international supports and festival appearances. Their brand new sophomore album 'Unbreakable' was released in January 2010 on Strike First Records in USA and is now available in stores across New Zealand on Deadboy Records.
