Lamb of God and Trivium co-headline Australian tour

May 14, 2026

Australia, brace yourselves. The heaviest co-headline of the year is coming.

Two of the most important bands in modern heavy metal. Five cities. One absolutely unmissable run. Presented by Destroy All Lines. Lamb of God and Trivium are joining forces for a co-headline Australian tour this October and they’re bringing Glasgow’s finest, Bleed From Within, along for the ride.

This is two bands, each at the absolute top of their game, going head-to-head across Australia’s biggest stages in what is shaping up to be the metal event of 2026. Whether you’ve been there from the beginning or are about to witness something life-changing for the first time, get yourself a ticket.

Three decades in and Lamb of God are still hitting harder than almost anyone on the planet. The Richmond, Virginia groove metal godfathers, made up of Randy Blythe (vocals), Mark Morton and Willie Adler (guitars), John Campbell (bass) and Art Cruz (drums) helped write the rulebook for modern American heavy metal. And in 2026, they just rewrote it.

This March, the band dropped their twelfth studio album Into Oblivion and the world collectively lost its mind. Metal Hammer called it “a mallet to the back of the skull” and at least their best record since 2012’s Resolution. It debuted at No. 21 on the Billboard 200, selling 26,000 copies in its first week. In short: Lamb of God just reminded everyone why they’re one of the most important bands to ever do this.

If Lamb of God wrote the rulebook, Trivium rewrote it again then set it on fire and handed you the ashes with a grin. The Florida four-piece comprised of Matt Heafy (vocals/guitar), Corey Beaulieu (guitar), Paolo Gregoletto (bass) and new drummer Alex Rüdinger have spent 25 years being one of the most technically ferocious, relentlessly ambitious and thoroughly electrifying live acts in the genre. Right now, they’re hungrier than ever.

Don’t even think about arriving late to this gig because Bleed From Within isn’t your average support act and anyone who has seen them live will tell you exactly that.

The Glasgow five-piece have spent two full decades sharpening one of the most distinctive sounds in modern heavy music: a crushing blend of metalcore, towering riffs, hypnotic grooves and bone-splitting breakdowns, with the unmistakable sound of Scottish bagpipes woven through the chaos like some kind of beautiful, violent dream.

This is a powerful and unmissable lineup and tickets will fly out the door, so get in quick!
