PALEFACE SWISS

"Paleface Swiss bring the fire and the fury and within seconds of them coming on stage, it’s easy to see why they just get bigger and bigger. Rarely do you get the chance to see a band as explosive as this – existing in the right place, at the right time." WhenTheHornBlows.com

"Paleface Swiss have truly set a new baseline for what a band of this genre can achieve in their live delivery. A set that will long live rent-free in my mind. Paleface Swiss will continue to dominate" Kerry Rowe, Scenestr

PALEFACE SWISS are the fastest rising force in heavy music today. Anyone who has borne witness to their live shows, critics and fans alike, can attest that their dominance is unassailable. Their trajectory unstoppable.

Having sold every ticket to every show (with the exception of Newcastle!!!) on their 2025 Australian tour, PALEFACE SWISS return in January 2027 armed with a new EP, a bigger show and 2 very incredible special guests.

Hailing from Zürich, Paleface Swiss formed in 2017 and have rapidly climbed the ranks of the global heavy music scene with each album and EP. Frontman Marc “Zelli” Zellweger’s commanding vocals, paired with crushing riffs from guitarist Yannick Lehmann, thunderous bass from Tommy Lee, and pummeling drums courtesy of Luigi Paraventi, delivering a sound that blends old-school hardcore brutality with a full array of modern heaviness.

"There is just something so special about Paleface Swiss live. Banging Track after banging track, fire erupting from the stage, carnage in the pit and a strong sense of union amongst everyone in the building... You have not lived until you have see Paleface Swiss perform live." GNHBL.com

Joining the fray for this run of shows are Canadian metalcore legends, COUNTERPARTS and Colorado's heavyweight contenders, FOX LAKE.

COUNTERPARTS, fronted by metalcore's irrepressible poet laureate and agent provocateur, Brendan Murphy, are headliners in their own rights having already smashed their way around Australia to sell out crowds and great acclaim.

Hamilton, Ontario's Counterparts are one of, if not the most respected names in the scene with a well earned a reputation for electrifying live performances and deeply personal songwriting that resonates with fans worldwide.

"From soaring and technical lead guitars to dirty hardcore breakdowns, Counterparts gave a masterclass in their craft." DISTORTED SOUND

"Counterparts have rightfully earned their seat at the table for the genre's absolute greatest, rending most of their peers obsolete in the process." Sputnik Music

Putting the icing on this already insane tour are FOX LAKE. Formed in 2017 in Denver, Colorado, Fox Lake fuse heavy riffs, hip-hop, relentless energy and hardcore attitude into a powerful live spectacle. They are a growing global presence and redefining heavy music on their own terms.

“I was not ready for the mayhem that is Fox Lake... Their set was sheer chaos driven by adrenaline. From front to back, the audience was two-stepping, moshing, forming walls of death, circle pits, and crowd surfing.” Rock DNA Mag

"Fox Lake are a visceral jolt to the system. Missing them is an error” metaltalk.net
