Metal United Down Under (MUDU) proudly announces its upcoming milestone event, marking a decade of relentless metal mayhem across Australia. This year, the celebration promises to be nothing short of epic, with 21 cities hosting 118 bands, showcasing the vibrant metal scene Down Under. From Adelaide to Sydney, Brisbane to Sunbury, metalheads can rejoice as MUDU brings together the best of the genre for an unforgettable night of headbanging and camaraderie.
Founder Michael Lueders expresses his excitement for this monumental occasion, stating, “It has been a dream of mine to see 20 shows happening simultaneously, celebrating the unparalleled power of metal music. This year, we’re making it happen!”
For the first time in MUDU’s history, three shows will grace the greater Sydney area, alongside two in the bustling Brisbane region, emphasizing the unity and collaboration within the metal community.
The line-up for MUDU 2024 is nothing short of spectacular, with bands seizing the opportunity to launch albums, EPs, and singles. From Elephant Orgy to Bloodhunt and Suffer The Evenue, the event serves as a platform for musicians to showcase their latest creations.
Additionally, renowned acts like Age of Emergence, Miruthan, Van Diemen, and Darker Half will grace the stages, with some using the event as a pivotal stop on their tours. Notable mentions include Beast Machine’s welcome home show after their triumphant USA tour, and the eagerly anticipated comebacks of The Loom of Time and Darkyra after extended hiatuses.
