Karnivool aren’t easing back into the cycle — they’re detonating it. After a 13-year wait between records, the Perth outfit are taking their ARIA #1 album In Verses on the road for the first time, locking in the biggest headline shows of their career with a lineup built for absolute overload.
The run kicks off at the Ice Cream Factory in Perth on July 18 before tearing through five capital cities, closing out at Riverstage in Brisbane on July 25. It’s a short, sharp national lap — but one designed to hit hard.
In Verses doesn’t feel like a comeback record. It feels like a release valve finally giving way. A meticulously layered, emotionally charged body of work, it arrives 13 years after its predecessor and somehow lands at No.1 on the ARIA chart — a rare chart-topper that wasn’t engineered for algorithms or streaming cycles, but for patience, detail and sheer weight.
They won’t be doing it alone. TesseracT join the tour, bringing their shape-shifting, atmosphere-heavy take on modern metal — a band that has spent years bending the genre into something more fluid and immersive. Their 2024 Australian run around War of Being proved just how far that sound can stretch in a live room.
Then there’s Car Bomb, making their long-awaited Australian debut. Known for their volatile structures, shifting time signatures and full-body sonic assault, they round out a bill that leans fully into technical extremity without losing impact.
