Karnivool Tickets

Revolution is a chaotic and unbalanced affair. It challenges the state of things and, for those who revolt against the status quo, it bears both great risk and greater reward. These truths are as vital in art as they are in any other realm and it is within these redefining forces that Australian hard-rock architects Karnivool thrive. With their acclaimed 2005 debut ‘Themata’ and 2009’s ground breaking follow-up ‘Sound Awake’, Karnivool established themselves as one of the most vital forces in progressive modern music.

Karnivool belied expectation again with their third album, the brazen and introspective ‘Asymmetry’ (released July 2013). This expansive work was designed in the band’s Perth studio over two years and recorded with legendary producer Nick DiDia (Rage Against TheMachine, Mastodon) at Byron Bay’s Studios 301. ‘Asymmetry’ became their first #1 album, outselling all other artists combined in the Australian top ten and saw them pick up an ARIA award and it went on to be one of the most acclaimed albums of 2013, joining their previous albums with certified Platinum sales status.

The band spent most of the next two years playing to their ever expanding global fanbase with shows from Melbourne to Moscow, Sofia to Sydney, Pune to Perth; highlights including a sold out headline show at the 3000 capacity Roundhouse in London and their first ever gigs in South Africa. Upon returning to Western Australia, the all-consuming creative process of their fourth album is now entering it’s final stages with results due.. well, nobody really knows. Including them. “All it Takes” was a recent taste of new music, and more and more new material is appearing live – a tease, a glimpse….

That (and the enforced break we have all had to endure) hasn’t stopped Karnivool from plying their trade. From regional tours in their home state, to a livestreamed anniversary show to commemorate 15 years of Sound Awake from the wonderful Heath Ledger Theatre in Perth, Karnivool managed to keep the home fires burning. They finally got to leave the country again in 2023 with their massive and sold out Regeneration Tour throughout Europe with a little stop in Dubai on the way home. The “Tri Continental Drift 2024” tour was their latest run of sold-out Australian dates, European Festivals including Download and Hellfest, as well as a lighting run through India. Eyes peeled folks, Karnivool are bearing down on you once again, with some fresh musical treats in hand.
