Angelus Apatrida + Hidden Intent Announce New Zealand Tour

It's well and truly salad days for Aotearoa metal maniacs, as another top tier mega-heavy touring combo has been revealed to be touring here in the months ahead. Spanish thrash metal juggernauts Angelus Apatrida are uniting with Adelaide's beer-loving Hidden Intent for three massive gigs in Tāmaki Makaurau, Pōneke and Ōtautahi, blazing a warpath across the country together from 29th February to 2nd March. Arising from Albacete, Spain in the year 2000, Angelus Apatrida unleashed their eight studio album Aftermath this year via Century Media Records, hailed by Metal Injection as "one of the greatest thrash records of the year." Infamous for head-banging anthems including 'Pub Feed', 'Drop Bears Are Real' and 'Dead End Destiny', Hidden Intent are returning to our shores celebrating the vinyl release of their 2018 classic 'Addicted To Thrash'. Get in the pit with Angelus Apatrida and Hidden Intent this summer — brought to you by Valhalla Touring and Waxstar Touring...

Press release:

Spain's most highly successful thrash metal act Angelus Apatrida will grace our shores for the first time! Signed to Century Media Records with no need to regain momentum, Angelus Apatrida are more ready than most to let rip in 2024. Their new record Aftermath marks a pinnacle in this band’s determined and always fruitful career. It’s a defiant, uplifting and resolutely metal-as-fuck response to an era defined by chaos and fear. It’s the sound of Angelus Apatrida, doing what they do, but bigger, better, louder and with more passion than ever.

Joining them on the road are South Australian Pub Thrash tycoons, Hidden Intent who will be celebrating a vinyl release for their infamous cult-anthem Addicted to Thrash as well as a few new tracks to road test from their upcoming new album. The boys have been working harder than meat mincers in an Aussie pie factory right off the bat from warming up the stage for Brazilian legends Sepultura around Oz & gracing the stage at the heavy metal holyland Wacken Open Air & UKs Bloodstock!

This is the thrash tour of the year - do not miss these shows!
