Fresh from the release of their 2021 EP CHRONICLES I: LUST, VOID OF VISION continue to take fans on a journey of twists and turns with the release of their forward-thinking new single 'DOMINATRIX'. Arguably their most adventurous song to date, 'DOMINATRIX' takes the listener on a journey between crushing heaviness and light, ethereal vocals. NME described it as “fusing their established metalcore style with buzzing synths, chopped-up vocal clips and driving breakbeats. Tying it together are the pummelling, down-tuned guitars and Jack Bergin’s raw and authoritative vocal runs, making it an effortless fit in theVOID OF VISION catalogue”. Rock Sound are losing their minds over it stating “Nobody is doing it quite like them right now and it's another indicator of how far ahead of the curve they really are…blending drum and bass ecstasy and industrial agony with their trademark bludgeoning riffs. It is the sound of metalcore being pushed into truly exhilarating spaces, and a band leagues ahead in their vision and vitriol.”

"The process began with that simple chorus vocal hook and ended up with our most adventurous attempt at a piece of work yet. I have never written, or attempted to pen a ‘love song’ before but this one just came extremely easily to me," says Void Of Vision vocalist Jack Bergin. "The lyricism of 'DOMINATRIX', while quite foreign within a VOID OF VISION song, is really complimented here by the track’s pace, flaunting a certain urgency, a longing for excitement and stimulation.”

In what will be their biggest Australia headline tour to date what a way for VOID OF VISION to celebrate by bringing out the brilliant HOLDING ABSENCE (UK) for their first ever Australian tour! Post-hardcore/rock powerhouse HOLDING ABSENCE are on the brink of greatness. Coming out of their hometown of Cardiff some six short years ago, Holding Absence absolutely stormed their ascent in the alternative music scene, with their atmospheric amalgamation of belting anthemic choruses, battering drums and big guitar riffs on their monochromatic hard-hitting debut. But it has been their sophomore album The Greatest Mistake Of My Life’ that has catapulted them with Kerrang exclaiming “with everything about ‘The Greatest Mistake Of My Life’ screaming confidence, from its cinematic scope and aesthetic to its affirming tunes…these small town boys have big dreams and tunes to match.”

Coming along for the ride on this incredible package will be Melodic Hardcore Sydney champs BLOOM! Combining melodic and fierce instrumentation with emotive lyrics and impassioned vocals has always been a recipe for success that Bloom pride themselves on their ability to achieve. Their capability to convey deep emotion through surging and soaring song writing with memorable hooks and choruses are second to none. Their last release “In Passing” follows the narrative of loss & grief and showcases Blooms’ aptitude to embrace the things that can be hard to talk about. The energy they put into their releases is amplified through their live performances, channelling raw passion and precision into every show they play.
