Finland’s big boys of blast, ROTTEN SOUND are back after like 13 years to grind Melbourne and in support we have CHOOF, BLACK JESUS, BRUXIST and fucking SLIME CITY bringing the finest goregrind and the biggest riffs in town. At Hunchbax Theatre Restaurant, now known as The Leadbeater down in Richmond. Gonna be an absolute fucking smasher so make sure to head down. Ticket link in bio
THE KLOWN IS ALWAYS KORREKT
A snippet of the ever-more-relevant ESP Mayhem interview on I Thought I Heard A Sound blogspot from a little while back. Link in bio, if you want to read an actually interesting music related interview, which get fewer and farther between by the day.
HUUUUUUGE thanks to PLF for coming over here for an absolutely killer tour, utterly destroying every night, and being fantastic folks to work and travel with. Dave and Tonio - love you guys!
Also enormous thanks to Andrea for doing an insane amount of driving and lugging gear, Louis for pulling out all the stops in Brisbane for an incredible show and putting us up, Nick at Spit for being an invaluable part of the underground, Rohan for booking Sydney, the other 3 Roskopp dudes for dragging that ol’ corpse out of the mud for one last wingding, every band who played and ripped shit up, everyone who loaned gear, put us up or otherwise helped this seat-of-the-pants tour go off without a hitch and everyone who came to a show. It’s all so appreciated. PRESENTED BY NO ONE. Fuck branding in the underground
UTTER MADNESS AS SICK PEOPLE JOIN THE PARTY!
Cliff Biker are unfortunately unable to play but Rick and His People are swooping in to save the day.
PLF have been absolutely bananas on every show of their tour so far, don’t miss your last chance to see them in Australia before they shoot off to burn through Japan.
TONIGHT!! Tix at door still. CEREBRAL EROSION sound checking here sounds like Armageddon already. Shit is gonna be MENTAL
HOLY MOLEY! PLF have been bringing some serious megatonnage to the 3 Melbourne shows! They are absolutely NOT to be missed! Recently recruited drummer Tonio is fucking astounding! Relentless speed, RELENTLESSSSS!
CANBERRA you’re next in the firing line! Roll up and bring ANYONE who wants to see something extraordinary! PLF are truly something else!
ALSO! ROSKOPP have our final show of our dementedly short ‘reunion’ after 16 years at sea, it’s your last chance to see us grind poins blaze through some what might even be considered modern classics of grind (if the overwhelmingly and unexpectedly rapturous response we got on Friday is any indication). SLAVE BIRTH and FLESH will make you shake in your boots at the savagery on show too. Happening at Shadows Nightclub! Keep the lunacy rolling!
It’s the last of the three Melbourne shows for Texas grind blast bastards PLF tonight at the @rest_in_spit , Footscray, bolstered by local heavy duty brutes @contaminated.au , @diploidnoise and Slime City💥🍻
Legendary Texas thrash grind maniacs PLF’s Australia 2026 tour starts tonight!💥🍻🔥⛓️⚒️
After nearly 30 years of tearing the underground to shreds, PLF are finally making their first trip to Australia this April. One of the most ferocious two-piece bands ever to exist, PLF is an absolutely devastating blend of ultra-tight, viciously fast old-school grindcore ala Terroriser and Insect Warfare, and high-octane thrash metal ala Kreator, Sodom, and Possessed, pushed to warp speed. Having released albums on Melbourne’s illustrious Blastasfuk label and a split 7” with local yokels Incinerated they are foaming at the mouth to finally make it here to go off like a frog in a sock for their downunder fans and freaks.
