2026 has seen Adelaide metal outfit I Choose Violence playing on some absolutely stacked line-ups with some insane bands.
Beginning the year playing Stay Gold Melbourne in January with BLEEDING THROUGH, ALGOR MORTIS, BLOOD ON MY HANDS and VIRTUES, ICV moved straight onto Froth and Fury Festival in Adelaide, sharing the stage with the likes of ABORTED, ABBATH, ARCHSPIRE and playing to thousands of people.
April saw the band complete their first East Coast tour, hitting Adelaide, Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane with the legendary KRAANIUM from Norway and Sydney’s SLAUGHTERCULT, before May saw ICV sign with CRIMEWAVE MGT to undertake future bookings.
ICV will continue their assault on July 17, 2026, when they release their third EP, An Enemy to Life Itself, which features guest spots from the likes of THEURGY HC, CHAPEL HILL and BLEEDING THROUGH. To celebrate, ICV will play the EP live in full at THERE WILL BE BLOOD VOLUME 1 on July 25 at Jive Adelaide.
