News : Buried In Verona Australian Tour Update – Void Of Vision Added, Hand Of Mercy’s Final Shows

By on August 4, 2015

With the show only a month away, Melbourne’s Void Of Vision have been added to Buried In Verona‘s Australian tour this September-October. Following this addition comes the news that this tour will also serve as the final ever tour for Sydney’s Hand Of Mercy. The Sydney-based hardcore five-piece have mutually chosen to go out on a high after an almost 9 year long career.

Hand Of Mercy’s original vocalist Scott Bird will be returning to the band for their farewell run, and they are slated to play material off all five of their albums.

With their new album Vultures Above, Lions Below (UNFD) just weeks from release, Buried In Verona’s profile is once again centre stage with expectant fans eager to support a band that has been through more than enough to kill weaker-thans several times over.

Blunt, brutal, fueled by rage but above all, completely honest, Buried In Verona are primed to take their new set of anthems to their faithful and their critics in equal measure when they hit stages everywhere from mid September.

Adding to an already stellar line up are Melbourne’s Void Of Vision who’s debut EP Broken // Bones was Blunt Magazine’s EP of the Year for 2014. Their aggressive sound and erratic live show has solidified their standing among their peers and fans nationwide.

These shows will be the last for Sydney’s Hand Of Mercy. After almost 9 years of perfecting their brutality, the band who’s touring resume reads like a who’s who of modern hardcore heavyweights, are coming off the road. With last years Resolve album (their UNFD debut) being their most successful to date, HOM are going out on top of their game.

Hand Of Mercy’s original vocalist, Scott Bird, will be returning to the band for their farewell run and they will be playing material off all 5 of their releases spanning their nearly decade long career.

Polaris have been making a lot of noise lately. A year on from their debut EP, the band have released a new single, Unfamiliar, which has set page view numbers soaring. Becoming road dogs akin to the likes of HOM, Polaris are blowing crowds away with their high energy and infectious live shows.
