Australia just can’t get enough of Thy Art Is Murder! Due to extraordinary demand for tickets to the Decade of Hate Australian Tour 2023, Thy Art Is Murder have announced two very special additional  shows taking place at The Triffid in Brisbane on January 11 and Max Watts in Melbourne on January 15. These intimate shows will be the last chance for fans in both cities to witness their landmark 2012 record, Hate, in its entirety.

A towering beast of a record that bludgeons all in its path, Hate was a watershed album for Australian metal that has seen Thy Art Is Murder reign in darkness over the genre ever since. Upon its release in 2012, Thy Art Is Murder made history as the first extreme metal band to crack the ARIA Top 40, the album also bulldozed its way to number one on the AIR Chart. Hate also catapulted the band onto the world stage, seeing them play a mammoth 342 dates around the globe, with more US tours than every other Australian band at the time. Thy Art Is Murder continued to smash through ceilings with an appearance at the Big Day Out, becoming only the second extreme metal band to play the festival after Blood Duster. Between laps of the world, Hate was lauded with nominations for both an ARIA and a Metal Hammer Golden Gods Award. The album has been streamed over 55 million times to date.

When Thy Art Is Murder started touring Hate, it was in venues the size of these, so it’s only fitting they return for the 10-year anniversary.
These two shows will feature an entirely new line-up of local support bands to be announced. Don't miss the chance to witness history.
