From the organiser

After a huge year of conquering the world, Melbourne metalcore standouts HEAVENSGATE are finally coming home with The Angel Hymns Australian Tour this October and November. Joined by Greyscale Records label mates Mélancolia and rising Sydney outfit Irken Armada, the five-date run will see HEAVENSGATE bring their internationally renowned live show back to Australian stages.

The Angel Hymns Tour arrives off the back of a stack of milestone achievements, including last week's single release that saw them join forces with We Came As Romans for a reimagined version of "red smoke", featured on WCAR’s upcoming special release All Is Beautiful...Because We’re Doomed: Circularity via SharpTone Records.

At the heart of HEAVENSGATE’s rise is their latest EP, A HEART IS A HEAVY BURDEN, a release that pooled the band's collective experiences into a sonically raging yet deeply personal take on modern metalcore that proved to resonate deeply with listeners. Building on the foundations laid by their 2022 debut EP AND ALL I LOVED, I LOVED ALONE, the record further cemented HEAVENSGATE as a vital new force in heavy music.

The Angel Hymns Australian Tour will land in between a North American run supporting 156/Silence and Aviana throughout September, followed by a European and UK tour alongside thrown, Counterparts and No Cure across November and December.

Joining HEAVENSGATE across Australia is Mélancolia, who have quickly established themselves as one of kind within Australia’s metal community. Since emerging in 2022, the band have released two critically acclaimed albums, HissThroughRottenTeeth and random.access.misery, via Greyscale Records and Nuclear Blast, and shared stages with Thy Art Is Murder, To The Grave, Fallujah, Cattle Decapitation, Ingested, Vulvodynia, Suffocation and more. Following multiple Australian tours and two European/UK runs, Mélancolia have well and truly made their mark beyond home soil, and were coined one of Metal Hammer’s "brilliant new metal bands you need to hear".

Opening the shows will be Sydney metalcore five-piece Irken Armada, who have been steadily carving a name for themselves with a sound that nods to the genre’s mid-2000s heyday. Drawing influence from the likes of Underoath and Every Time I Die, the band blend nostalgia with a modern metalcore edge.
