INTRODUCING STATIC
THE LEGENDS THEMSELVES. FROM BEING THE FIRST BAND TO PLAY DOUGFEST (LITERALLY OPENED UP DF1 WITH A STRIPPED DOWN SET), SMASHING OUT A MID CARD SATURDAY SLOT AT DOUGFEST 2 AND FINALLY HEADLINING DOUGFEST 3, THE KIRIKIRIROA QUINTET FINALLY DO THEIR FIRST EMO NIGHT SETS AT DOUGSPACE 3
LED BY THE INSANE VOCALIST SINAEA (WHOSE ALSO MAKING WAVES IN A LITTLE BAND CALLED @haast_hunter 👀👀👀) STATIC HAVE PRETTY MUCH BERN AN INTEGRAL PART OF THE LOCAL SCENE SINCE THEIR INCEPTION JUST OVER A DECADE AGO. THEY'VE TOURED THE COUNTRY, PLAYED TO SOLD OUT VENUES AND HAVE CAPTIVATED AUDIENCES HERE IN HAMILTON AND BEYOND.
THEY TRULY ARE ONE OF THOSE BANDS YOU HAVE TO WITNESS. YOU WONT BE SO SICK OF THEM.

📸 @memorybox.studio DOUGFEST 3, 2025
The dirty electro-thrash metal outfit Nasty Insects of Wollongong (Dharawal) Australia are travelling across the seas to visit NZ for the first time! Promoting their upcoming debut album ‘Bite ‘til they Bleed’, a vile hive of pulverising, disgusting bug noises made up of thrash-crossover riffs like Power trip and D.R.I. meshed with ferocious, 90 synth layers reminiscent of The Prodigy and Underworld.
19th June at @lastplacebar ! Joining us along the whole trip is the freaky scientific rock machine @deathchemistband 🧪 🔥. @static_nz and @indecision.band.nz also will be there that night too! Let’s get silly !
