Resist Presents:

Terror Australian Tour July 2012

Terror is so much more than 5 individuals making music. It is an energy, a force, a refuge and a voice for all the lost and unheard.  This is an attempt to put to words that force expressing the band’s dreams, visions and hopes through the underground music medium of hardcore.

This is the story of Terror, the now legendary team of vets tirelessly sharing their ambitions live on stage over 300 times a year since their inception in 2003. The band has no boundaries when playing a show. Performing a festival to thousands one day and following it up with a show in a squat the other is not an uncommon occurrence, welcoming to all crowds and groups playing for whoever is willing to listen.

This July the band returns to Australia, joining them will be Melbourne’s Iron Mind. Tickets on sale April 27.

Resist Presents

Bitter End Australian Tour May 2012

Influenced by the metallic New York Hardcore bands of the late 80′s and early 90′s, San Antonio’s Bitter End have established themselves as a brute force in the hardcore community.

With all the makings of a contemporary hardcore classic, 2010′s “Guilty As Charged” bruises and batters with dynamic riffing, potent vocals/lyrics, and bone shaking breakdowns. Songs like “Unjust” and the title track “Guilty As Charged” showcase this hybrid brand of hard hitting thrash and hardcore. A tried and tested formula that Bitter End not only embrace, but continue to improve upon in their own vicious way.

This May they make there way to Australia for the first time where they will be joined by Perth’s Blkout.

Hopeless bring to the stage a passion unmatched, whether it is the first time or hundredth time seeing them, these shows are not to be missed.

Supporting Hopeless on this run will be Sydney’s Endless Heights. A band who has exploded onto the scene with the release of their second EP Dream Strong, the band continues to go from strength to strength.
