After a triumphant Australian visit earlier this year, New Zealand heavy act Beastwarsreturn to Australian shores in February, spitting out a sharp three date run up and down the East Coast in support of new single This Mortal Decay. 

With a new found perspective and deep understanding of the fragility of life stemming from vocalist Matt Hyde’s recent battle with cancer, the band are back in world-class form and will return to Australia on the back of sold out shows at the Gershwin Room in Melbourne and one of the most mesmerising Dead of Winter festival sets ever layed down to a packed 1500 strong crowd at the Tivoli in Brisbane, earning them a new army of Australian fans.

Promoting gargantuan new single This Mortal Decay,  the introspective work was the last song written for latest Beastwars album IV and also the most triumphant, shaped by Hyde’s recent experiences delving into the abyss.  “I was lucky that I had music to express what had happened to me,” Hyde says. “A lot of people don’t have that. I was very lucky that we could make a record. I took the time to process it and turned it into something else.  It’s interesting to have the ability to confront the void, to confront the idea of mortality. I didn’t make peace with it either.”
