Stick To Your Guns formed in 2003 and quickly attracted the attention of the independent music scene and hardcore fans alike, earning them prominent tour supports, a place on the 2008 Warped Tour and the record for the highest attendance ever at the famous AA venue in Anaheim, Chain Reaction. With the release of their newest album, The Hope Division, STYG have recorded their most honest and aware album to date. Bringing their passionate and infectious live show to Australia for the second time, STYG are a band that fans of the band and hardcore lovers alike do not want to miss out on!

Unashamedly honest of their goal to create straightforward, crushing, metallic hardcore, legendary Bay Area hardcore outfit, First Blood, are hitting these shores for the first time. Fast-forward to 2010 and the band are gearing up for the release of their highly anticipated, sophomore release, Silence Is Betrayal. Featuring 15 songs of musical devastation and lyrical condemnation, First Blood revisits the spirit and burning flame that originally brought the band together.

Since bursting onto the scene with their heavy guitar riffs and endless touring, Wish For Wings has become a well-known name, not only in their home state of Queensland but also right across Australia and beyond. Their fast pace and highly energised live shows leave the audience wanting more, and with their rigorous touring schedule Wish For Wings certainly delivers. Joining the tour just in time to coincide with the November release of their second full-length, Echoes, fans can definitely look forward to singing along to their moshpit anthems.

With this trio of bands igniting audiences, moshpits are going to be hives of activity as the bands rip apart the stage. This is definitely going to be one tour that should be marked in the calendars as un-missable this year.
