Description
When Sunny Day Real Estate collapsed in early 1995, few would have predicted the impact the Seattle band's music would still be having over a decade later. Now, more than 15 years later the band's original lineup is reuniting to deliver its emotionally charged epics for live audiences once again.
It’s no secret that it’s Motion City Soundtrack’s inconsolably simplistic wit and brilliant live shows that has made them cult heroes. With their bubbly brand of colourful pop punk, Motion City Soundtrack will be bringing their trademark blend of bittersweet melodies and buoyantly catchy tunes to this amazing quadruple bill.
Glassjaw's influence has been staggering, the loyalty towards them astounding and the number of careers owed to them, unfathomable. Although hard to imagine, Glassjaw's live shows are even more intense than their records; don’t miss this rare chance to witness the undisputed legends of post-hardcore in the flesh.
RX Bandits are fearless. In a nervous era of record label focus groups, marketing strategies, and narrowly defined micro genres, it seems that the idea of the Transcendently Great Rock & Roll Band has been lost. Fortunately for us all, Southern California’s RX Bandits have emerged as a tidal wave, a force that shatters all the boundaries set against them. This concept has been the catalyst for the band's ever-growing fan base, which revels in their uniqueness and continues to storm their celebrated, incendiary live shows.
On the back of their performances at Soundwave 2010 the dream line-up of Sunny Day Real Estate, Motion City Soundtrack, Glassjaw and RX Bandits will be performing 2 club shows in Sydney and Melbourne.
