The band will be bringing along special guests in Caskets (UK) + alt.

Blending energetic sounds with fuzzy electronic tones, heavily distorted guitars and heavenly beats, Melbourne metalcore outfit Windwaker are bringing their unique heavy sound to Australia this July on the Love In The Dark Tour. They’ll be bringing along Caskets all the way from the UK for their first-ever visit to Australian shores alongside friends in alt.

The Love In The Dark Tour, presented by Destroy All Lines and Open Door Management, will kick off in Perth on Thursday July 20 before travelling through Adelaide, Melbourne, Brisbane, Newcastle and will come to a close in Sydney on July 29.

“We’re very excited to be bringing out Caskets for their Australian live debut and hitting the road again with our friends in alt.” says the band.

“We’ll be playing songs from Love Language that we haven’t performed yet (yes, that means “Trenches”), some old favourites (“Empire” never dies) and maybe even a cheeky newbie… We’re giving fans an opportunity to experience our songs in their phattest forms yet with our largest live production to date. This will be Windwaker at our absolute best.”

The tour will see Windwaker headline Sydney, Adelaide and Newcastle for the first time in close to four years and will mark their first ever headline show in Perth. Love In The Dark celebrates the release of the bands acclaimed debut album Love Language as well as latest single “Left In The Dark”, featuring returned member and new vocalist Liam Guinane as well as new synth and sample master Connor Robins.

Windwaker first landed on the scene in 2017 and built a growing fan base with independent EPs ‘Fade’ (2017) and ‘Empire’ (2019). ‘Love Language’ made its entrance last year, releasing via Fearless Records, and immediately caught the attention of tastemakers across the globe. Amassing millions of digital streams, Windwaker translate their energy on record to the live stage, where they’ve played alongside Beartooth, I Prevail, Motionless In White and more, most recently finishing up a month-long regional tour with Northlane.

Tickets on sale Thursday 10am local time via Destroy All Lines.
