FOR THE FIRST TIME IN NEW ZEALAND — AUSTRALIAN THRASH LEGENDS MORTAL SIN
Having toured alongside thrash heavyweights Metallica and Testament in their early years, Mortal Sin forged their legacy in the global metal scene from the very beginning. Formed in 1985, they carved their name into the foundations of thrash with a ferocious, high-energy sound that stood shoulder to shoulder with the genre’s elite.
After years of silence, the band has reformed — returning to the stage with the same intensity and aggression that made them icons of the era.
This marks their first ever shows on New Zealand soil, and the timing couldn’t be more fitting — celebrating 40 years of their debut album Mayhemic Destruction, a landmark release that helped define Australian metal and continues to influence generations.
Joining them on all dates are New Zealand’s own Bulletbelt, delivering their uncompromising, relentless live assault.
Three nights. No filler. Pure thrash.
23 July — Whammy, Auckland
24 July — Valhalla, Wellington
25 July — Churchills, Christchurch
