This October Numetal Mayhem is delivering to Australasia two of the most iconic men from two of the biggest Nu Metal bands ever.
For the first time in history lead singers from rival bands Slipknot and Mushroomhead will share the stage together, ending the legendary feud that has been waged in the press and across social media for twenty-five years.
Waylon Reavis – Waylon Reavis is returning to Australia after a 9-year hiatus when he stunned stadiums as the frontman for Mushroomhead at Soundwave 2014. To this day, Reavis is widely acknowledged as being the standout vocalist for the iconic masked group and his ongoing success with A Killers’ Confession is a testament to that ability.
Reavis will be playing all your favorite Mushroomhead tracks including I’ll Be Here, Simple Survival, 1200, Our Apologies, Save Us and QWERTY. Mushroomhead have never toured New Zealand and have made no indication that they will be travelling to Australia anytime soon. If you want to hear these classic Mushroomhead tracks this will probably be the only time you will get to.
Waylon will be rounding out the set by performing the major hits from A Killers Confession and is heavily hinting that he will be playing his infamous Roots Bloody Roots cover.
Anders Colsefni – Anders Colsefni, Paul Grey, Clown and Joey Jordison first performed under the name
Slipknot in April 1996 at the Safari Club in Des Moines. Not long after Mick Thompson and Craig Jones joined the band and the trajectory of modern metal was changed forever. Slipknot erupted on the local metal scene and by October 1996 they released their debut record Mate. Feed. Kill. Repeat. This record became the foundation of what is now Slipknot’s twenty-five-year legacy.
Anders will deliver the entire Mate. Feed. Kill. Repeat record from start to finish. This is the first time this record has been heard live in twenty-seven years, and it may be the only time it will ever get played live again… And it’s happening in Australia and New Zealand.
