Thirty years is a long time in heavy music. Scenes change, trends come and go, venues disappear and bands form, implode, reform and disappear again and again. Segression are still here.
Formed in Wollongong in 1996, Segression emerged from an Australian heavy music scene that would go on to produce some of the country’s most enduring acts. Across three decades, six albums, countless Australian shows and stages shared with Ozzy Osbourne, Slipknot, Pantera, Machine Head, Soulfly, Fear Factory, Strapping Young Lad and more, they’ve built a legacy that stretches far beyond their hometown.
But 2027 isn’t about looking backwards. To celebrate 30 years of Segression, the band are bringing it all home with the inaugural
SEG FEST, an all day heavy music festival at Waves, in their home town of Wollongong on Saturday, May 15, 2027. Joining Segression for the inaugural festival are some absolutely icons of the Australian heavy scene including Toe To Toe and Mortality. Those holding firm in the middle ground but still playing killer live sets Our Last Enemy, Deprivation and Topnovil. And the new guard, proving heavy music never dies PistonFist, Backhand, The Witching Hour and Skarmekal.
Nine hours. One stage. Heavy music from every generation mixing styles and genres under the same roof. SEG FEST 2027. Tickets available HERE
