HUMAN:
Based in Christchurch, New Zealand HUMAN has the unique distinction of being one of the longest serving metal acts in New Zealand history. Now celebrating their 18th year in sonic punishment the four piece group have played hundreds of shows, appeared on live national television (no less than three times) and have released nearly a dozen recordings - all of this achieved with the same do-it-yourself approach that fueled the bands humble beginnings in a one room inner city bed-sit in March 1992. HUMAN have also had the privilege of sharing stages with some of the world biggest metal acts including Dragonforce, Suffocation, Cannibal Corpse and Pungent Stench. Not forgetting top local talents the like of Dawn Of Azazel, Malevolence, Backyard Burial and Tainted to name a few.
The bands latest album Cadaver Academy has managed to capture HUMAN in top form. Twelve tracks of ferocious guitar riffing, blazingly fast drums, guttural bass lines and 4 ranges of death metal vocals all working to great effect. Added to the mix is the bands tongue in cheek humour on tracks like Roid Rage, Centrifugal Skin Removal and Anal Devastation which features samples by none other than Bob Saget.
------------------------------------------
DEFAMER:
Joining HUMAN are Australian death metal quintet DEFAMER. Hailing from Brisbane, DEFAMER have had a stellar run in the past year with their debut album Chasm selling out (now in second pressing), multiple tours and supporting great names like Cannibal Corpse, Krisiun, Destroyer666, Rotting Christ, Malevolent Creation, Dark Funeral and many more at the first Screamfest in Sydney.
This tour will mark the release of their first vinyl in the form of a 7 split with Sydney metallers Rookwood and their first journey overseas, showcasing songs from both Chasm and unreleased tracks from an upcoming second album. DEFAMER cant wait to bring their crushing old school death metal sound back to the stage, and to do it in fine company.
