Aussie Punk Invasion

Two of Australia's biggest punk outfits are set to tour the UK this summer.

Frenzal Rhomb, dubbed the 'punkest band in the world', and with a tour diary encompassing the likes of Reel Big Fish, NOFX, The Offspring and Rocket From the Crypt, are hitting our shores this April in support of ska-legends Less Than Jake. Despite already playing a three night stand at the Astoria, the Rhomb have added a very special, one-off, headlining show at London's Underworld:

07 April - Nottingham Rock City (w/LTJ)

08 April - Norwich UEA (w/LTJ)

09 April - Manchester Academy (w/LTJ)

10 April - Newcastle University (w/LTJ)

11 April - Glasgow Barrowlands (w/LTJ)

12 April - Birmingham Academy (w/LTJ)

17 April - London Astoria (w/LTJ)

18 April - London Astoria (w/LTJ)

19 April - London Astoria (w/LTJ)

20 April - London Underworld

28 Days, meanwhile, have been making a name for themselves in the UK recently following a string of successful gigs in support of Goldfinger. The skate punk / hip-hop hybrids are in the process of lining up their debut headlining UK tour, with the following dates confirmed so far:

01 May - Bristol Fleece & Firkin

04 May - Sheffield Leadmill

07 May - Manchester Roadhouse

08 May - London Garage

Aussie Punk Invasion

I'm prepared to say that this tour was insanely brilliant.

I would, infact, bet lots of money of the fact that this tour was excellent!

I'm going to a Live n Local Tour tomorrow night - which would classify as an "Aussie Invasion Tour" - only they live here, so they don't have to invade, perse.

Appearing on a stage somewhere near you (if you live in Australia, I suppose?) is Jebediah, 28 Days, Magic Dirt, Betchadupa & Machin Gun Fellatio. Brilliant Line-up. *nods*
