Set your alarm, get your mum to wake you up and ask a friend to call you at 11:55am on Thursday 9 September! Then get yourself to a computer and make sure you grab your NO SLEEP TIL tickets because as of midday today , tickets to all No Sleep Til cities are officially on sale!!
No Sleep Till is the latest punk on the block. Blasting through Australia and New Zealand from mid to late December, the new national touring festival is set to deliver a mix of the best, and most interesting lineup of heavy music acts from around the world! From the legendary to the up and comers, and right up to the “fuck me dead, i thought i’d never see them”.
Leading the charge will be seminal thrash-metal act MEGADETH, who will be performing their now-classic release RUST IN PEACE in its entirety!
Add punk rock stalwarts NOFX to the mix, with Boston’s own working-class heroes DROPKICK MURPHYS, home grown metalcore hunks PARKWAY DRIVE, the one and only, trailblazing pop-punk quartet DESCENDENTS (MELBOURNE, SYDNEY, BRISBANE only), Florida’s A DAY TO REMEMBER (ADELAIDE, MELBOURNE, SYDNEY, BRISBANE only), US metal shockers GWAR and modern day punk innovators ALKALINE TRIO.
Still need convincing? Read on and weep ‘cause Sweden’s darkest sons KATATONIA will join metalcore favourites ATREYU (ADELAIDE, MELBOURNE, SYDNEY, BRISBANE only), Aussie punks FRENZAL RHOMB and punk-rock’s karaoke kings ME FIRST AND THE GIMME GIMME’S (AUSTRALIAN shows only).
Want more heavy music action? In addition to this already monumental package, classic-metal loving 3 INCHES OF BLOOD will join deathcore sensations SUICIDE SILENCE, Pennsylvanian quintet AUGUST BURNS RED, rapidly-rising US troupe WE CAME AS ROMANS, progressive post-hardcore sextet HOUSE VS HURRICANE, live-wire Perth crew BREAK EVEN, promising Sydney pop-punks HEROES FOR HIRE and the pit-inciting CONFESSION.
Adding to this excellent line up of local talent, and all flying the New Zealand flag with pride, will be hardcore heroes ANTAGONIST AD, Wellington based melodic punk rockers THE OUTSIDERS, Auckland’s hardcore hard-outs SHITRIPPER and NZ’s most exciting new act LEECHES.
