THE BEST OF HELMET

HELMET BEST OF HELMET AUSTRALIAN TOUR 2023 Honouring the patience of devoted fans all over the country, Helmet have confirmed their long-waited return to deliver the very best of their celebrated catalogue. In April 2023 Helmet will storm Australian stages delivering career defining songs and all-time fan favourites, a complete evening of essential music from one of heavy music’s most essential bands. For over three decades, Page Hamilton and Helmet have provided the foundation for modern guitar and heavy alternative music. Fusing the complexity of jazz, the extreme power of metal and a liberal dose of avant guard, Helmet continue to guide the way for a myriad of bands into the modern age. Led by Hamilton’s incendiary time-contorting riffs and molten liquid leads, Helmet are the epitome of extreme musicality. From the devastating guitar riff of “Repetition” opening 1990’s Strap It On through to the pulsating bass and feedback of “Life Or Death” which closes their most recent album Dead To The World, Page Hamilton and his band continue to raise the bar for uncompromising, sonically brutal guitar driven rock. All tickets currently held by patrons for the previously scheduled 2020 Helmet tour will be valid for these new dates, including shows where the host venue has changed. Ticketholders should anticipate correspondence notifying the new dates from the ticketing company from whom the purchase was made.     Thursday 20th April 2023 Cambridge, Newcastle Friday 21st April 2023 Roundhouse, Sydney Saturday 22nd April 2023 Republic, Hobart Monday 24th April 2023 The Rosemount, Perth Wednesday 26th April 2023 The Basement, Canberra Thursday 27th April 2023 The Tivoli, Brisbane Friday 28th April 2023 The Croxton, Melbourne (Replacing 16th May 2020 & 5th Nov 2020) Saturday 29th April 2023 The Croxton, Melbourne (Replacing 2nd May 2020 & 6th Nov 2020) Sunday 30th April 2023 The Gov, Adelaide
