Commanding KARNIVOOL fans demand more shows - New Day tour adds extra dates!
Once again, KARNIVOOL, Perth’s hugely successful purveyors of heavy rock prove their popularity and status on the live music scene! With 8 shows on their national tour sold out the band is pleased to announce final extra shows to cope with demand for the New Day tour – their last national headline Australian tour for their Sound Awake album. Two shows will now take place in Brisbane when the tour kicks off on June 23rd, three in Sydney including a newly added all ages show, three in Melbourne with the first two already sold out there, two in Adelaide and two in their hometown of Perth where the tour wraps up on July 22nd.
Support acts for the tour have also now been announced.
Sydney based genre defying MM9 who’ve been storming stages for the past decade uniquely combining elements of heavy rock and electro, littered with guitar-driven melodies will join KARNIVOOL on their New Day tour as the main support act. MM9 is a band whose versatility is matched only by the sheer potency of their stage presence. While maintaining a tireless schedule of touring throughout 2008/2009, MM9 finally released their highly anticipated first full length album ‘The Air Between’ in March. Constantly looking forward, always evolving, MM9 are a band to listen to, witness, and lose yourself in and KARNIVOOL are pleased to invite them on the road in June/July this year.
CAIRO KNIFE FIGHT, a thrilling new outfit from Christchurch have emerged with a live show that evolves into one hell of a unique experience. With vocals, drums, bass and live looping by well seasoned drummer Nick Gaffney and guitars and backing vocals by Aaron Tokona (founder and front man of successful New Zealand band Weta), put simply a live performance from CAIRO KNIFE FIGHT is hectic! They’ll cross the Tasman to open proceedings at all shows on the New Day tour except Perth where local lads The Siren Tower will kick things off.

“…a confident slab of moody dark rock grandeur, with high flying vocals and instrumental complexity that hew closer to Tool and Mars Volta...” 6 ˝ stars The Sun Chain review - Toronto, Canada
“.. the first big surprise of the new year is a band from Australia – Karnivool.” 6 stars out of 7 Metal Hammer, Germany
“…rock music listeners looking for something new and different will truly enjoy the fresh take on Karnivool’s seemingly new direction.”
4 ˝ stars out of 5 - Guitar Edge Magazine, USA (200, 000 subscribers)
“Karnivool makes mesmerizing music…” 4 stars out of 5 - Aftonblat (Sweden’s biggest evening newspaper)
“This is genuinely impressive stuff…” Kerrang UK
Commenting from Toronto, guitarist Drew Goddard said,
'Six weeks and counting - life on the road has been treating us well. We've been clocking up some serious mileage over Europe and the US, playing cracker shows and meeting awesome people, many who have travelled from all over (Poland, Hungary, Greece and of course Tampa!) to come see us. Many boozy nights and too many hung-over breakfasts at Waffle House to count. As amazing as this has been, there's nothing like the feeling of coming back to our island home. Come party with us! It's been too long!'
The band's Sound Awake album has already achieved gold status in Australia and is well on its way towards platinum sales. It has been released in 13 other territories across the globe, the media reaction has been universally positive with KARNIVOOL gaining exposure in some iconic international press including Kerrang, Classic Rock, MTV, Radio 1 and the Wall St Journal. See international media quotes below.
With an unmatched aural and visual experience in the live arena, transporting both the band and their fans to a unique place, a KARNIVOOL show is more than a gig, it's a gathering, and the beast is happily returning to Australia.
Presented by Fidelity Corporation and Billions Australia, tickets for KARNIVOOL's New Day tour go on sale Friday April 23rd. Punters - be warned, these shows will sell out fast!
