Legends of modern heavy music, Killswitch Engage, return to Australia and New Zealand in 2026, bringing more than two decades of genre-defining metal to the stage with their biggest Antipodean headline shows yet, joined by special guests, British heavyweights, Sylosis.
The Western Massachusetts metallers helped redraw the map for modern metal in the early 2000’s, fusing blistering European‑inspired guitar work, East Coast hardcore energy and emotionally charged, uplifting lyrics into a sound that changed the game for a generation of bands and fans.
Fresh from celebrating 25 years as a band and the release of their latest album This Consequence, which featured blockbuster single I Believe, the biggest radio hit of their career, Killswitch Engage are set to deliver a career‑spanning set for their Australian and New Zealand fans.
