Michigan’s heaviest export is finally stepping into the spotlight down under. KING 810 have announced their first ever Australian headline tour, hitting the East Coast this March with support from The Gloom In The Corner and DREGG. Consider this your warning: things are about to get very loud and very unhinged.
The run kicks off Wednesday 4 March in Adelaide, before rolling through Melbourne, Sydney and Newcastle, and wrapping up Sunday 8 March in Brisbane. It’s going to be a fast, chaotic, nu-metal blitz, exactly what you’d expect from one of America’s most notorious heavy acts.
Fresh off releasing Rustbelt Nu Metal and K7 Rustbelt Nu Metal 2 earlier this year, KING 810 are deep into their most feral, uncompromising era yet. Captured live in front of an audience, both records channel the poverty, crime and brutal realism tied to their hometown of Flint, Michigan. With a third album in the Rustbelt series on the way, the band are rolling into Australia armed to the teeth.
Known for turning venues into battlegrounds, KING 810’s live shows are equal parts chaos, catharsis and total emotional demolition. Frontman David Gunn has built a reputation for pushing every show to the edge, balancing discomfort, intensity and raw storytelling. They last hit Australian stages in 2024 supporting In Hearts Wake, where they were met with a massive welcome, next year, it’s finally headline time for KING 810.
Joining the carnage are Melbourne heavyweights The Gloom In The Corner, who are gearing up for their new album Royal Discordance dropping February 2026. With global touring under their belts and a spot on the sold-out Hellbound Cruise.
Also on the lineup: DREGG, fresh off signing with Fearless Records and dropping their 2024 album The Art Of Everything. Equal parts punk, hardcore, rap and complete absurdity, DREGG are the wild card that turns this whole tour into a guaranteed fever dream.
