HARDLINE MEDIA are proud to present, finally, LORD OF THE LOST, who will hit Aussie shores in 2026. The German, Goth Metal pioneers are heading our way in February.

LORD OF THE LOST - A name that over the last 15 years has embedded itself into the top tier of dark and heavy music. Without stagnation the genre-fluid band from Germany continues to explore their many facets while showing everyone that boundaries are only meant to be broken. Juggling elements of Metal, Industrial, Glam, Rock and Pop, the group have continued to reinvent itself over and over again, both musically and visually, which over the years has led to rising national and international success.

This band just gets bigger and bigger, with their last 4 albums all smashing the German top ten national album charts, with 2022's "Blood & Glitter" reaching the #1 position and staying there for 7 weeks. Live, the band are a visual and aural experience and have appeared at all the major festivals and touring not only once, but TWICE supporting IRON MAIDEN on their Summer tours. Lord Of The Lost cannot be missed.

Check them out live right here, featuring multi million selling German Superstar BLUMCHEN on guest vocals performing "Herz an Herz - She's Got The Look"

THE DATSUNS - New Zealand Riff Lords Announce Australian Tour - March 2026

One of New Zealand’s fiercest rock exports, The Datsuns, will bring their all thrills and no frills brand of sleazy garage rock to their Australian fans next March.
 

The Datsuns blazed into global consciousness with their 2002 self-titled debut, a record that topped the NZ charts and hurled them onto stages with Metallica, The White Stripes, and Queens of the Stone Age. Over the past two decades, they’ve released seven albums, worked with Led Zeppelin’s John Paul Jones, and remain an absolutely potent live act.

Their Aussie run promises to be filled with savage hooks, honed to perfection, delivering Stoogeoid evil, powerpop crunch and the classic proto rawk assault & battery they are world renowned for.

Scandinavian drummer Adam Lindmark will drive the beast forward locking in with Dolf de Borst on bass. While upfront lead string wrangler and vocalist, Christian Livingstone, and rhythmic meister Phil Somervell bring a stack of raw, unfiltered and oh so good riffage.

Expect the full sweep of The Datsuns’ catalogue, from the anthems that scorched their early path to the first sparks of their eighth studio album, set to arrive in 2026. Leading the charge for their 2026 record, the single ‘Ugly Leather’ tears in with jagged riffs, and unrelenting fire – old energy, new fuel, same unstoppable inferno.

Prepare yourselves: the DATSUNS are back, and the rock will rise again.

TOUR DATES
Wed, March 25: The Gov, Adelaide
Thurs, March 26: Crowbar, Brisbane

"Litany, yes indeed...this is Vader's most brutal album. Litany speaks to many in different forms. Extremely heavy production, tight and commanding drumwork, catchy, sharp guitar work, chaotic, amazing leads, and of course, Peter's catchy yet angry vocals."  

- Encyclopidia Metalium

HARDLINE MEDIA proudly welcomes back down under ENSIFERUM for the "Winter Storm Over Australia" Tour 2026.

ENSIFERUM - One of the world's leading Folk Metal Bands, return to Australia for their "Winter Storm Over Australia" tour late May 2026. With their 9th studio album under their belt "Winter Storm", and celebrating their 30th anniversary, these shows will be huge. Get your drinking horns and Viking helmets ready.

ENSIFERUM finally return to Australia, with their last visit on the "Two Paths" world tour in 2019, having packed shows in Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne, this time in 2026 the band are adding Perth, Adelaide and Canberra to the mix, touring the new album "Winter Storm". 

The last time that Ensiferum left the studio with a new album, the world promptly shut down due to the covid pandemic. The Finnish folk - Metal Melodeath sensation maintained a prolific release schedule since their first demo in 1997, gradually increasing in stature until their eighth album "Thalassic" crowned their ascent in 2020. That nautical opus went on to top Finland's album chart, reaching #3 in Germany, and top ten in Switzerland, Canada and the USA. Eventually Ensiferum would take Thalassic on two massive world tours and to festivals like Wacken, Hellfest, Summer Breeze and Ragnarök, but the global health hoo-hah ensured that the four year wait for "Winter Storm" is the longest in the band's near 30 year history. 

The wait is over, Ensiferum are on their way back!!

Don't miss these Finish Folk Metal legends!!!

After quite the saga… Hardline Media are stoked to announce the inaugural and triumphant Reckoning tour of VINDICTA. ADELAIDE, MELBOURNE, SYDNEY & BRISBANE, it’s your turn…

PLEASE NOTE: This is the songwriting team of Dogma, with band featuring ¾ of Dogma members, and the band will be performing Dogma songs live. What you will be seeing is the true Dogma under a different name VINDICTA.

Born from the ruins of greatness, Vindicta rise, more original and even greater than before. Australian believers, we heard your call…vocalist Grace Pasturini (Lilith) and guitarists Amber Maldonado (Lamia) and Patri Grief (Rusalka) will be descending down under in June 2026.

Blending heavy riffs, cinematic atmospheres and strong melodic hooks, VINDICTA deliver a powerful and emotionally driven sound rooted in modern Metal, with a strong focus on performance, visuals and storytelling. 

With members based in Italy, the United States and Spain, VINDICTA operates as an international project with a global outlook. 

The band recently released their debut single “The Face of the Clown” which received an excellent response from fans and marked the first step in establishing VINDICTA’s own musical identity. 

Built as a professional, long-term project, VINDICTA is driven by a clear creative vision and an international growth strategy. Their live shows combine new original material with selected songs previously performed by the members, including material from Gospel I, presented within a renewed concept and sound. 

VINDICTA represents a new chapter shaped by experience, creative freedom and ambition, with a clear focus on building something solid, forward-looking and international.

Come and join us. We are Vindicta.
