Ne Obliviscaris Australian Tour 2009

Welkin Entertainment Presents

NE OBLIVISCARIS
AUSTRALIAN TOUR
MARCH 27-MAY 23, 2009

With widespread critical acclaim of their live performances and their demo ‘The Aurora Veil’, and with large crowds following them wherever they go, Ne Obliviscaris are embarking on what will be one of the last opportunities to see the band perform live before they head into the studio to record their highly anticipated debut album. Their first ever Australian tour will run from March 27-May 23, and take in Melbourne (AA & 18+ shows), Brisbane, Gold Coast, Adelaide, Hobart (AA & 18+ shows), Canberra, Sydney & Geelong.

"Melbourne's Ne Obliviscaris combine extreme and clean vocals with a violin, twin guitarists, a bassist and a drummer to create a wall of progressive, symphonic metal that transcends genres from black metal to jazz, and it's almost indescribable just how epic their sound is, and just how creative and virtuosic their music skills are. Ne Obliviscaris have me in awe ... this takes the best genres of metals past and mashes them together to create what I believe is the future of progressive metal" (Themetalforge.com)

“A breathtaking comeback to the live circuit…A performance that left me in awe of their artistic and technical mastery” (Beat Magazine)

“What the massive local crowd saw was something special. It was the return of a band that I truly believe will take the world by storm. A band with diversity, talent and a new found passion to take all in its path and make metal an even better genre to listen to. It’s official, Ne Obliviscaris have returned!” (Metalobsession.net)

would be good! the lineup is just so consistently awesome (smw excluded

)

VredDoesLights · April 12th, 2009, 09:57 PM

I'll be doing lighting for the boys in Sydney as well as the last two Vic shows, make sure you get along and see the band in its entirely awesomeness.

Svartwerk · April 12th, 2009, 09:58 PM

...such pretty lights they are too

VredDoesLights · April 12th, 2009, 10:01 PM

I do the best with what I go.. I really wish I could get the band at a venue like Billboard or The Arena in Brisbane where I could give them spotlights, movers and lazers

.

Svartwerk · April 12th, 2009, 10:03 PM

... kind of have to be able to fill those venues first...

VredDoesLights · April 12th, 2009, 10:04 PM

Not a problem when you are opening for Opeth or.. other big bands.
Gotta help these guys land some big opening spots

Svartwerk · April 12th, 2009, 10:29 PM

Only international bands we've played with so far are Suffocation and EBM band Nitzer Ebb

VredDoesLights · April 12th, 2009, 10:38 PM

I know, I'm going to wear the shirt I got in Brisbane all the time now to spread the name.

I've already had several people go ''how the hell do you pronounce that?''... My plan is working :P

Elliott · April 12th, 2009, 11:30 PM

I didn't know you guys were touring??

Sarindria · April 16th, 2009, 01:57 AM

I do believe I'm going to have to go to the Geelong gig as well. Here's hoping one of the Veil boys wants to loan me a couch. :/
(Sorry Elliott and Chris...)

chrisdoig24k · April 16th, 2009, 03:01 AM

NOOOOOOOOOOO!
(I'm not discouraging people from going to NeO on the NeO forum... errrrrr)

Sarindria · April 16th, 2009, 03:03 AM

I'm sorry!
But... NeO and Veil all at once! BRAD AND JUSTIN. Whom I haven't seen for four months. Excitement!
Silliness aside, my mind isn't 100% made up, though I don't like your chances of swaying me towards the Arty.

VredDoesLights · April 16th, 2009, 03:18 AM

I'm breaking my hoilday just to work those two gigs, last of the tour!

Haha, your loss! The Melbourne show will be great though!

Sarindria · April 16th, 2009, 03:43 AM

I know. I do want to go. Just shitty timing; I've been promising the guys, and a few other mates down that way, that I'd come visit for months now. This is one of the few times they're all guaranteed to be in the same place at the same time, thus making it worth the several hours travel. Convenience, and whatnot.

Tim Charles · April 23rd, 2009, 09:41 AM

Adelaide tonight!!
