Los Angeles post-hardcore legends Touché Amoré are heading Down Under this July for an Australian headline tour, bringing their latest album 'Spiral In A Straight Line' to stages across the country. Joining them as main support for the entire run is special guests, California alt-rockers Militarie Gun. 

Since forming in Los Angeles in 2007, Touché Amoré have become one of the most impactful bands in modern post-hardcore. They return to Australia after performing at the inaugural New Bloom Festival in 2024 headlined by Movements and Citizen. Their upcoming headliner is set to spotlight the band’s latest artistic chapter while honouring the legacy they’ve built over the past decade. Fans can expect a mix of fresh material and beloved cuts from 'Stage Four', 'Lament', 'Parting the Sea Between Brightness and Me' and more.

The full 8-date tour is supported by Militarie Gun, a truly uncategorizable band. Led by vocalist Ian Shelton, the band’s debut full-length, 'Life Under The Gun', is almost impossible to describe without bouncing between contradictions. Is it abnormally aggressive pop music or is it unusually catchy hardcore? Is it deeply intellectual or is it satisfyingly primal? Is it a vulnerable attempt to unpack lifelong cycles of hurt, or is it a collection of world-beating, absurdist punk anthems? In the end, the answer is obvious: it’s all of it. It’s Militarie Gun. Since forming in 2020, the band have been on a relentless touring streak, tearing across stages worldwide with an urgency that mirrors their sound. Australian fans have already caught glimpses of the chaos.
