Download Festival Melbourne gets two new lineup additions: High Tension & Make Them Suffer.



After both Cursed Earth and Alpha Wolf pulled out of Australia's first ever Download Festival in Melbourne this March last week, promoters and organizers have been quick to secure two replacement bands to re-fill the lineup. In this case, Melbourne riff lords High Tension (pictured above) and Perth metalcore-deathcore crew Make Them Suffer are the two newly added bands in question.

In 2017, Make Them Suffer dropped 'Worlds Apart' (read our review of it here) and have been touring the release hard ever since it entered our dimension last July. Now, from what we've heard out of the High Tension camp last year, the hardcore punk quartet will be releasing a new LP sometime in 2018 and after how solid 2015's 'Bully' was, we're very keen for more from the local legends.

Both bands are solid additions to the event's lineup, which the rest of boasts Korn, Limp Bizkit, Prophets Of Rage, MastodonGood Charlotte, NOFX, and more. (20 more to be precise).

Download Festival Melbourne all goes down on Saturday, March 24th - all further info for the event here.
