UTR Presents Wellington sludge metal titans Beastwars are celebrating the 10th anniversary of their iconic debut self-titled album with a nationwide tour headlining the largest venues of their career. The brutal and barbaric debut long player firmly established Beastwars reputation as one of New Zealand’s most powerful and uncompromising groups. Alongside critical acclaim both here at home and internationally it also earned them nominations at the Taite awards and the NZ Music Awards for Best Rock Album winning Best Album Artwork for the spectacular mind melting imagery by Nick Keller. Wellington heavy psych duo Earth Tongue will open all shows packing with them their expertly crafted fuzzy pop songs and disorienting wall-of-sound riffs.
