Australia, prepare for spectacular sonic annihilation this June, with Michigan juggernauts I PREVAIL set to make their return down under. In what will be their biggest ever Australian tour, I PREVAIL announce today a national headline arena run joined by special guests IMMINENCE and INVENT ANIMATE.
Set to commence on Sunday 14 June in Perth, the Violent Nature Australian tour will see I PREVAIL roar through Adelaide, Melbourne and Brisbane, before concluding on Tuesday 23 June in Sydney.
Since forming in Detroit, Michigan back in 2013, I PREVAIL's trajectory has been nothing short of staggering. Amassing critical and commercial success for well over a decade, I PREVAIL's success story spans everything from millions of streams through to mainstream chart domination, unforgettable performances across the globe, and two GRAMMY Award-nominations for good measure.
Achieving gold status in both the US and Canada via their debut 2016 album Lifelines, their 2019 full-length TRAUMA further cemented their status as one of the most elite forces on the scene, with the album itself nominated for Best Rock Album at the 2019 GRAMMY Awards, as well as single Bow Down in contention for Best Metal Performance. 2022's TRUE POWER again expanded the band's extensive reach on defying expectations and genre confines, and in 2025 I PREVAIL ascended yet again with the release of Violent Nature; album #4 and an entirely new era for the band that is equal parts intense, passionate and energetic.
Self-produced alongside bassist and keyboardist Jon Eberhard, Violent Nature ticked off multiple firsts for I PREVAIL, from the band recording in a professional studio for the first time in 10 years through to it also being the first album to feature vocalist Eric Vanlerberghe as the only singer, taking on both clean and unclean vocal duties throughout. Described by Kerrang! as "the most honest record I Prevail have given us in their quick rise", Violent Nature sonically crushes and soul-searches, while also showcasing I PREVAIL's exceptional dexterity and passion that has seen them perform as headliners, alongside Motionless In White, Pierce The Veil, Halestorm, and Fit For A King, and also on stages across Australia, including an acclaimed headline run in 2022 and, most recently, at Good Things Festival in 2023.
Returning after an entirely sold out headline Australian run in 2025, Swedish violincore sensations IMMINENCE are no strangers to wowing crowds with their unique take on alternative metalcore. Forging classical string arrangements with undertones of Scandinavian metal, IMMINENCE's trajectory over the past decade has spanned millions of streams and online followers, several bewitching albums, performances at some of the biggest heavy festivals on the planet, and entirely sold out shows of their own. Whether sharing stages with the likes of Bring Me The Horizon, Architects and In Flames, or stupefying on Australian stages at Good Things Festival and their own sold out headline crowds, the elegant ferocity of IMMINENCE is an enduring experience; and one definitely not to be missed.
Channeling the uncertainties of the world into a sonic universe that unites and offers powerful catharsis, American metalcore act INVENT ANIMATE have spent over 10 years cultivating a sound and community centred around empathy and articulation. Releasing their debut full-length Everchanger in 2014, the group most recently unveiled their fourth full length, 2023's Heavener, as well as a collab 2025 EP Bloom in Heaven with Silent Planet. Fusing ambient metalcore, djent and prog, INVENT ANIMATE's live performances are also the stuff of legend, with their dynamic sets finding beauty in chaos and ultimately leading them to sharing stages over the years with ERRA, Alpha Wolf, Thornhill, Northlane and, on their most recent Australian visit, with We Came As Romans in 2023.
In 2026, violent delights will take full flight when I PREVAIL take Australian stages by storm. Mark your calendars for June, this is not to be missed!
