The Swedish Metal Juggernaut that is MESHUGGAH are today announcing that they are to grace Australian and New Zealand’s shores in 2017, on the back of their 8th studio Album. “The Violent Sleep of Reason” will be released through Nuclear Blast records and takes the band back to their heavy, technical roots. The March 2017 tour is being presented by MJR presents and goes on fan-presale tomorrow Tuesday 6th September and on sale to general public this Thursday 8th September.
The Violent Sleep of Reason, the band’s eighth full-length studio album, finds MESHUGGAH building upon their legacy for fearless metal sculpting within the context of extreme metal, but also recapturing some of the magic and excitement specifically within the aspect of performance, finding flow and groove that would be a challenge for any lesser band to locate, given such technical geometric madness at mischievous hand. They are bringing that legacy to Australia and New Zealand and visiting iconic venues such as The Powerstation in Auckland, The Tivoli in Brisbane, The Enmore Theatre in Sydney, 170 Russell in Melbourne and Metropolis in Fremantle.
The Meshuggah Australia/NZ Tour goes on pre-sale Tuesday 6th September at mjrpresents.com and then on general sale Thursday 8th September.
