Canadian thrashers ANNIHILATOR have confirmed the support acts for their upcoming 2015 headline tour.
Forged in the eastern suburbs of Melbourne, Australia, HARLOTT are the finest example of the thrash metal genre in recent years. Taking most of their influence from the 80’s bay area thrash scene, they focus on high energy, up tempo music with lyrical influence from the human condition. Unrivalled live concerts, an aggressive recognizable sound and professional musicianship have earned Harlott a strong and dedicated fan base in the Melbourne metal scene, which still continues to grow to this day. HARLOTT will not only impress new audiences in and outside of the heavy metal genre, but they will also succeed in taking the fans back to the golden age of metal.
Hailing from the unlikely roots of Santa Cruz, California, ARCHER is a band determined to deliver genuine uncompromising and unrelenting ass-kicking hard rock and heavy metal music to fans of all ages. As fans of the music themselves, this trio of hard rocking guys is not unlike any fan of the genre. They play for those that share a love for the music and the passion within. Make no mistake – this is a band that is truly the sum of its parts and is best illustrated by the collective musicianship these three individuals possess. Alex’s precise drumming, David’s masterful bass duties, and Dylan’s captivating combination of playing and singing make for a sound and a band that is uniquely satisfying while retaining all the heavy metal inspiration that ultimately drives them. There is a real tangible passion within the band that is revealed when they take the stage and crank out one of their intense performances. It makes one realize that these guys are the real deal…. ARCHER has worked hard to climb the rock and roll heap and have no intention of letting go or slowing down as they continue to strive towards greater heights. It is through such tireless efforts that ARCHER has earned its past and present successes having toured and performed alongside some of the genre’s biggest acts. In addition to embracing the touring grind, ARCHER has recorded with the likes of Sam Taylor (KING’S X, ZZ TOP) and Gilby Clarke of GUNS N' ROSES/ROCK STAR SUPERNOVA fame. Listening to their recorded efforts reveal a dedication to their craft that continues to impress.
