In 1977, the dawn of punk, the Misfits were born. This year, over three decades later, they descend on Australia, with a legacy of musical history that has withstood the test of time. The Misfits hit up Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne and Adelaide in November / December.
The Misfits have endured hardcore’s heyday as punk rock’s monster squad, a band whose cult following – a coven known as the Fiend Club – inspired them to continue to write, record and tour. Influential rock peers Guns ‘n Roses, Metallica, My Chemical Romance, Hatebreed, NoFX and Sick Of It All, are amongst some who have offered musical tributes in ode to the Misfits.
Tickets on sale from Wednesday 14 September. The Misfits release their 7th studio album ‘The Devil’s Rain’ later this year on the ‘Misfits Records’ imprint label (www.misfitsrecords.com).
