Jungle Rot Australian/New Zealand Tour 2023 POSTPONED
Jungle Rot and Your Mate Bookings have decided to put the debut tour of Australia and New Zealand planned for April 2023 on hold for the moment.
The sheer volume of tours, saturation in the market, the costs of flights and lack of funds the community has to spend on such a tour are the ultimate reasons for this tour to be put on hold for the time being.
JUNGLE ROT will return at a later date – we all need to be clear on that.
The flights were booked, the logistics and artwork are in place including the incredible support bands selected to make this tour one to remember.
We will be refunding all tickets immediately so there is no need to contact us.
Nembutolik will be holding these dates and launching their own tour very soon.
We apologise we had to cancel this tour and we understand you were all excited; but the band deserves huge crowds and appropriate compensation for finally visiting Australia/New Zealand after 30 years and we are going to ensure this happens as soon as possible – stay tuned for another announcement soon in regards to this.
We are excited to announce Church of the Cosmic Skull full Australian tour! After the massive response you showed us with the news of them headlining this years WO FEST we knew the rest of Australia would be in need of worship!
You can catch them at them at the following dates: 18/8 Brisbane – The Brightside Brisbane 19/8 Sydney – The Lansdowne 20/8 Wollongong – La La La’s 23/8 Katoomba – The Baroque Room 24/8 Canberra -The Basement Canberra 26/8 Melbourne – Evelyn Hotel

This May, US Goth Metal overlords UNTO OTHERS will make their debut in Australia.
They will bring their hook-laden brand of Heavy Goth Metal to the east coast of Australia visiting the cities of Brisbane, Sydney, Adelaide and Melbourne.
Jack Harlon are heading back on tour for the next few months in support of the new album “Hail to the Underground”!
The band will play some headline events and will play support slots for Greek Stoner Rockers 1000mods as they hit the following cities: Perth (Debut), Wollongong, Sydney, Melbourne, Frankston (Flippin the Bird Festival) and Adelaide.
Formed in 2016, Jack Harlon & The Dead Crows are a psychedelic fuzz rock band from Melbourne, Australia, who incorporate elements of blues, stoner rock, folk and doom metal into their distinctive sound. Much of their music follows the character of drug-addicted outlaw “Jack Harlon,” with songs that spin tales of desperation and survival in a fictitious western landscape.
In 2023 the band released their third studio album ‘Hail To The Underground’ – A fuzz-drenched, genre-crossing collection of renditions by Jack Harlon & The Dead Crows selected for their musical importance and personal meaning. Filtered heavily through the spaced-out psychedelia of Jack Harlon’s inimitable style, this collection includes songs originally written by lesser-known artists through a multitude of decades.
Throughout their career Jack Harlon & The Dead Crows have toured and performed with the likes of Greenleaf, Sasquatch, Wo-Fat and WHORES.
DATES BELOW:
15/2 La La Las, Wollongong (With 1000mods)

We are honoured to announce all the way from the UK, Progressive Psych Rock Gods Church of the Cosmic Skull as the headlining band for WO FEST 2023 at Evelyn Hotel Fitzroy, VIC Saturday 26th August!
Putting the Abba in Sabbath’ since 2016, the groups joyous blend of prog-psych-pop-rock with dark occult undercurrents has ignited hysteria and frenzy across the globe. In the words of Classic Rock Magazine: ‘the band’s mystical origins and white-robed stage attire carry all the trappings of an early-70s hippie sex cult, but their sound is rooted firmly in crunching classic-era arena rock.’
As we carve out the end of the year, there is no better way than finishing 2022 in style with a solid dose of heavy metal and debauchery at the Iconic Lansdowne Hotel in Chippendale, NSW. New Zealands speed metal demons ‘Stalker’ will headline this evening of substance fuelled headbanging after tearing apart their last Sydney appearance in November at “Brutefest 2022” with Skeletal Remains from USA at Crowbar and previous to that selling out The Vanguard on their first ever Sydney appearance. Local Acid metal filth slingers Sabire from are bringing the party (like they always do) along with a Supersoaker full of Tequila (Yeah, watch this) and supporting these maniacs are local Speed/Thrash metal lords ‘Livewire’, Victorias fascinating Heavy Metal crew ‘True Believer’ and South American Blackened Death worshippers ‘Blasfemancia’. We’ve outdone ourselves this time with this line-up of heavy hitters so indestructible the bar will be full from 7pm with familiar rocking tunes blasting out in preparation for the acts above ready to bring on 2023 with the strongest commitment to live music the scene has witnessed in years.
Ask and you shall receive!
