No stranger to controversy, Adelaide’s Seraphs Coal was accused of “voter fraud” when their single “Hope Is Where the Heart Is” debuted at #4 on Triple J’s Net 50, before proceeding to hold steady at #1. This was the start of a series of unfortunate events that Juice Magazine dubbed “Seraphsgate”, ultimately seeing the band blacklisted by Triple J. Controversy aside, the band toured relentlessly from 1996 to 2002, performing Main Stage Vans Warped Tour 1999, Essential Stage headline at Big Day Out 2000, Loudmouth Stage at Livid Festival 2002.
 
The year 2020 see’s the band coming back one last time for some special “Resurrection” shows. After selling out three Adelaide shows in under an hour, they’ve now grabbed some very special old friends to play with in Melbourne. FOR AMUSEMENT ONLY will headline and have managed to get the original line up together for the first time in 16 years. STR reunite, playing their first Melbourne show since 2005. Reggae / hardcore / funk / punk band HIGHTIME are joining the fun as are Melbourne punks JAPAN FOR.
