the nu-metal five piece known for telling the honest and raw stories of their rough lives in the troubled city of flint, michigan, debuting their dark forms of music through various genre's and gritty live performances, are returning to australia for their first headline tour.
king810 first appeared in australia for the final soundwave festival in 2015... for nearly a decade, we were yet to be graced with their performance again.
2024 was the first time for the band to return to the land down under, on tour with in hearts wake.
i was personally gutted to miss this tour, however i can officially (and excitedly) confirm that king810 are returning on their own headline run in early 2026!
after a busy few years of extensive touring across the us, uk and europe, the band are yet to rest but this has not stopped them from pumping out their two 2025 albums 'rustbelt numetal' and 'k7 rustbelt numetal 2' and their most recent single in october 'boo!!!'
as much as i want this incredible band to make sure they take the time to rest and relax, i am certainly not complaining about the incoming tour they've lined up for us. speaking of lineup, who's on it you ask? well...
joining this heavy hitting tour is melbourne's own gloom in the corner. we have seen these guys rising high in the aus metal music scene lately touring with some major names in australia and even joining the lineup for the hellbound cruise. i'm very pleased to see them on this bill!
following is another fantastic melbourne band, dregg. i honestly couldn't think of a more perfect addition to this lineup, with their perfect balance of fun and sarcasm, driven by a force of hyper energy all tied up in a colourful hardcore/numetal/metalcore bow.
tour dates:
4th march - adelaide, jive bar
5th march - melbourne, max watts
6th march - sydney, crowbar
7th march - newcastle, king st hotel
8th march - brisbane, crowbar
