APHASIAtainment, Rivetting Promotions and Fiend Magazine present the riotously aggressive and ear-piercing Industrial death metal act Hanzel und Gretyls New Zealand dissension on their all-encompassing Fukken über death party world tour. Despite past attempts, this Black friday 13th Nov. is the first assault of Hanzel und Gretyl downunder since their conception in 1993 and will herald a night of pure Industrial metal madness backed by some of New Zealands most well known dark-end acts, N.U.T.E and Keller Kinder, supported on deck by DJ Mental Decay.
Hanzel und Gretyl was spawned by Kaizer Von Loopy and Vas Kallas in 1993. In 1994, they recorded a demo entitled Kindermuzik, and were signed by Energy Records , a small record label based in New York. They recorded and released their first full-length album Ausgeflippt in 1995. After several local shows on Manhattans lower east side, they embarked on two US tours with Marilyn Manson in 95 and 96. In 1997, they released their second full length album, Transmissions From Uranus, which subsequently lead the band to tour with Prong and gave them even broader exposure nationally.
In 1998, Energy Records went out of business shortly after Hanzel und Gretyl toured the US in support of Rammstein on their first ever headlining tour of the states. In 2002, the band signed to Metropolis Records and immediately began recording for their long anticipated third album, Uber Alles, which was released in 2003. Following the release of the album, the band toured for a few months as a headliner and in support of The Genitorturers after which they returned to the studio to record a new album.
In September 2004, the band released their fourth album, Scheissmessiah touring the states both as a headliner and in support of Al Jourgensens Ministry. In 2006, the band toured across America yet again upon the release of the 4 song EP, Oktotenfest 2006, which also included a full scale UK tour in support of Cradle of Filth in 2007. Shortly thereafter, they began work on their fifth full-length album, 2012: Zwanzig Zwölf released in February 2008. The albums central motif follows the Mayan theory that the world will end in 2012, and the band posits the subsequent extinction of the human race following one last rock concert.
In January of 2009 Hanzel und Gretyl kicked off the first leg of an extensive headlining world tour which included shows and festival appearances in the Netherlands, France, Belgium, Italy, Switzerland, Germany, UK, Scandinavia, Russia, Romania and the Ukraine. The last leg of their World fukken tour encompasses 5 shows in New Zealand and Australia before an Industrial strength dance and killingfloor. Hanzel und Gretyl, downunder for the first time as their demand continues to grow exponentially worldwide and across the universe! P*R*O*S*T*!
Keller Kinder are a self-desrcibed “gothtronica” band who’ve experienced an unprecedented rise in popularity across New Zealand. Their New Zealand-wide performance-driven appearances (and in Sydney), along with International radioplay and great overseas magazine reviews of their first album “Kindergarten”, have raised Keller Kinder’s profile to the world stage. Promising their hardest set ever on the night, it will be a performance not to be missed.
N.U.T.E is the longest running and most successful New Zealand Industrial metal act. With International performances, side-projects, 5 releases and numerous compilation appearances under their belt, their bone-crushing Industrial metal mix has already firmly cemented their place in the New Zealand psyche and in Industrial music as a whole. Celebrating a decade of existence, N.U.T.E are re-visiting their old material, grinding it up for another strafing run.
