WITH MAKE THEM SUFFER + CURRENTS
Returning in 2026 for their first Australian headline run since 2017, prepare to witness American metal titans MOTIONLESS IN WHITE in all their dissonant glory next June, heading to arenas in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane joined by special guests MAKE THEM SUFFER and CURRENTS.
Playing the biggest shows of their career in Australia, they will be opening on Wednesday 24 June at Margaret Court Arena in Melbourne, MOTIONLESS IN WHITE will head to Hordern Pavilion in Sydney on Friday 26 June, and conclude proceedings on Sunday 28 June at Brisbane's Riverstage.
Harnessing searing industrial metal and grandiose gothic pop, MOTIONLESS IN WHITE are undisputedly the most iconoclastic and cinematic forces in 21st century rock. Hailing from Scranton, Pennsylvania and forming in the mid 2000s, MOTIONLESS IN WHITE are in command of over one billion cumulative streams and views to date, along with four consecutive Top 5 album debuts on the Billboard Top Hard Rock Albums chart and Top Rock Albums chart, via 2014's Reincarnate, 2017's Graveyard Shift, 2019's Disguise and, most recently, 2022's Scoring The End Of The World.
Comprising of Chris Motionless (vocals), Ricky Olson (guitar), Ryan Sitkowski (guitar), Vinny Mauro (drums) and Justin Morron (bass), MOTIONLESS IN WHITE have built a staggering reputation for their live performance, with their larger-than-life production, technicality and dynamic delivery finding them in hot demand over the years, previously performing alongside Slipknot, Korn, Lamb of God, Bring Me The Horizon and countless other stalwart names in the heavy scene. And most recently igniting Australian stages in 2022 supporting I Prevail, MOTIONLESS IN WHITE's performance was praised by The Live Wire as "an absolute banger of a set", also declaring "their return cannot come soon enough, and likely a headline tour."
From the Perth underground into the international spotlight, MAKE THEM SUFFER's trademark sonic stylings have evolved across deathcore, melodic death metal and heavy metalcore over the years, most recently releasing their self-titled album in 2024, cementing the group as one of the most influential and inventive acts on the scene. Between amassing millions of streams, performing sold out headline runs and touring globally with the likes of Bring Me The Horizon, Sleep Token, Parkway Drive, While She Sleeps and ERRA, MAKE THEM SUFFER remain a relentless and refreshing force in the heavy realms, and one of the most in-demand Aussie exports in town.
Connecticut metalcore act CURRENTS are fluent in balancing external commotions with internal battles, forging their innovative post-metalcore sound with honesty, ferocity and and a connective spirit that has endeared them to metal fans across the globe. With over 80 million streams and performances with the likes of Ice Nine Kills, We Came As Romans, Fit For A King and many more, CURRENTS also wield a formidable reputation for their emotionally-charged live performances, as well as three studio albums in their wake, 2017's The Place I Feel Safest, 2020's The Way It Ends and their most recent outing, 2023's The Death We Seek.

About Make Them Suffer
Growth, and the desire for eternal forward motion have been the concepts that have defined Make Them Suffer since the very beginning; and have been the foundations that led them from the world's most remote capital city Perth Australia, to becoming a household name on stages around the world. As they have traversed previous eras, the five piece have grown through the genres of deathcore, melodic death metal, & heavy metalcore; and as they continue on this path, the band’s fifth full-length sees inspirations from their past and present sounds twisted together into a package that will define Make Them Suffer’s place amongst their contemporaries as a truly creative act.

Reworked Mini Biography – Currents – ‘The Death We Seek’ Single
No stranger to turning a critical eye toward both the external commotion and internal battles that rage deep within the confines of one’s own mind, Connecticut post-metalcore innovators Currents don’t pretend that life is a bed of well-manicured roses. Rather, it has been by way of exploring the forbidden realms of a tortured psyche and ferociously searching for meaning amidst uncertain chaos that the band has won the hearts of metal fans across the globe; a feat evidenced by 80+ million catalog streams and packed tours supporting the likes of Ice Nine Kills, Thy Art is Murder, August Burns Red, As I Lay Dying, We Came As Romans, Fit For A King, and more.
Keen on backing up impactful themes such as heartache, abandonment, climate change, and animal abuse, with technical riffage and emotive atmospherics, Currents’ second full-length album The Way It Ends (2020) saw the group connect with their largest audience to date, selling over 6,000 vinyl despite the global touring shutdown, rocketing to No. 2 on the Top New Artist and Current Hard Rock Billboard Charts, and earning glowing praise from prominent outlets such as Kerrang! who described theband’s work as, “A narcotic blend of melodrama and madness.”
Now, back with their first new material since their popular sophomore record, vocalist Brian Wille, bassist Chris Pulgarin, drummer Matt Young, and guitarists Chris Wiseman and Ryan Castaldi’s latest single ‘The Death We Seek’ not only taps back into this familiar darkness, but continues to push the story forward. Recorded in December 2021 at guitarist Chris Wiseman’s studio in Beacon, New York, Currents once again called upon The Way it Ends / I Let the Devil In producer Ryan Leitru (In Search Of Solace, Like Moths To Flames, WCAR), and seasoned mix/mastering engineer Jeff Dunne (Wage War, Silent Planet, Make Them Suffer) to helpguide the sonic direction of the new track.
Together, the team churned out a seething blend of progressive metalcore-laced elements and moody post-hardcore to fuel the fire of Currents’ narrative message. “The single follows the loose concept of two individuals attempting to stop a looming apocalypse, only to be sabotaged by forces beyond their control or understanding,” frontman Brian Wille explains. “The song itself is about the weight of our choices and our responsibility for their outcomes. We’re also attempting to paint a picture of the world surrounding the overarching story we hope to create.” “This song serves as a continuation to ‘The Way it Ends’ while also calling back to our first record ‘The Place I Feel Safest.’” the singer continues. “It was writtenaround the time TWIE was released, so it carries a similar feel. We thought it was a good way to build on the story behind the music and reintroduce ourselves to the world after a period of relative silence.” Biding their time for the right moment to strike, Currents – much like the apocalyptic collapse foretold in their latest single – plow ahead like an unstoppable force,expressing their vision through anguished eyes, pounding riffs, and the powerful desire to lay the groundwork for the plotlines of a larger story still to come.
