“To say that all of us in Psycroptic are excited to be working with Nuclear Blast is quite an understatement... we're over the moon!!!! Nuclear Blast has always been the pinnacle of labels within the metal
realm, and to be signed with them is a huge honor for us...and to be the first Tasmanian band to ever be on the label is a pretty awesome bonus as well."

lukelord writes "Due to the recent amendments of the entertainment visa requirements set by the Australian Immigration Department, MAYHEM will not be able to get their relevant visas approved in time for their scheduled Australian and NZ tour dates.
As a result, tour promoter Just Say Rock in conjunction with Mayhem, have decided to postpone the tour to later this year.
Both parties, along with the Immigration Department, are now working on new dates for the Mayhem tour. The new dates will be released ASAP.
All current purcahsed tickets will be valid for the new dates (once they are announced) it has been revealed."
