Aussie grindcore-thrash legends King Parrot are teaming with American stoner-sludge metal heroes Weedeater, for a massive 11-date Australian tour in November.
King Parrot, who have shared stages with the likes of Pantera, Obituary, Exodus, and Lamb of God, recently wrapped up work on their new studio album – their first record since 2017's 'Ugly Produce'.While it's been close to a decade since North Carolina sludge-toned tar-heels Weedeater graced Australian shores (2016 in fact), the 'Wizard Fight' and 'God Luck And Good Speed' band just completing a July Europe, UK, Irish tour that included performances at Stoned From The Underground and Woodcock Festival.
Joining the tour will be locals Astrodeath and Choof. "Get a load of this. WHEN THE SPEED MEETS THE WEED… We ain't slowing down, we'll be kicking it into sports mode and burin down 11 dates with this motley crew," shares Astrodeath.
"What could go wrong!?!? 😑 FULL RIP! @kingparrotband - @weedeaterband - @choofinbastards and @astrodeathband take on OZ!"
Adds Choof: "Here it is flogs, the tour you've all been waiting for! Ever since we finished our headline tour earlier this year, we've hated staying still. So we're jumping in a van to come see all you floggas again, and some heaps mad dog sick bands will be there too.
"We probably don't even need to tell you how off chops these shows are gonna be, and we definitely don't need to tell ya to grab tickets, coz everyones grabbing a ticket. You'd be a loser if ya didn't."
Tickets on sale from 9am (local time) on 2 August.
