We’re excited to welcome Tropical Fuck Storm back – this time, to Band on the Wall!
It’s been two years since our favourite Australian post-apocalyptic acid punk disco scuzzheads, Tropical Fuck Storm, toured Europe. And while we can’t blame EVERYTHING terrible that’s happened since then on their absence, it does make you think.
Luckily, our heroes are bringing their wild, destructive and unstoppable live show to a stage near you this Summer! Thrill to the interwoven shredding of guitarists Gareth Liddiard and Erica Dunn, feel the bone-rattling basslines of Fiona Kitschin, and marvel at the mind-boggling drumming of Lauren Hammel. Move over Barnum and Bailey, because there’s a new Greatest Show on Earth and it’s coming to YOUR TOWN!

Tour support comes from Belgian band Maria Iskariot. Maria Iskariot is the patron saint of debatable behaviour. It’s semi-adult female punk rock from Belgium. Hopeful hopelessness in noisy stanza, chorus, stanza. Love for the unloved, too little, too late but primarily a knee-jerk reaction to sinners. Their debut EP EN/EN is about growing up, being unable to distinguish right from wrong, being confused by yourself and the conditions of this time. It’s about wanting different, but not knowing how – and ultimately realising that we too are benevolent assholes.
This is a 10+ show. Under 18s must be accompanied by an adult.
