\"\"<\/a>It has taken well over a decade, 9 albums,\u00a0multiple fan petitions and even a support group for Australian\u00a0fans upset at not having a tour, to finally get one of the greatest live bands in the history of heavy music to Australia.\u00a0Renowned for legendary performances, ludicrous levels of skill as musicians and a seemingly endless catalog of killer songs,\u00a0AVATAR<\/strong>\u00a0are finally making their way to Australia.<\/p>\n

AVATAR<\/strong>\u00a0have long been your favourite metal band’s favourite metal band. From\u00a0Iron Maiden<\/strong>\u00a0inviting them on tour; to\u00a0Vinnie Paul<\/strong>\u00a0claiming Dimebag would have been jealous of their riffs; to\u00a0mega star cameos on their albums, including\u00a0Halestorm<\/strong>‘s\u00a0Lzzy Hale<\/strong>\u00a0on the new one, Avatar have never lacked for adoration from their peers. When\u00a0Matt Heafy<\/strong>\u00a0of\u00a0Trivium<\/strong>\u00a0had to skip a few shows on their tour for the birth of his twins his choice to fill in for him was Avatar’s\u00a0Johannes Eckstrom<\/strong>. The side of stage at every one of their US and Euro festival appearances always features a packed gallery of the who is who of rock luminaries riveted by and gaping the pure joy and spectacle.<\/p>\n

Avatar have amassed over 100 million plays on Spotify and an incredible 163 million views on their YouTube channel with the songs\u00a0Bloody Angel, Hail The Apocalypse, Torn Apart, The Eagle Has Landed\u00a0<\/em>and many more. Recent single\u00a0The Dirt I’m Buried In<\/em>, currently on 3.2M views, reached 1M views in only 2 days.<\/p>\n

With their stunning new album,\u00a0Dance Devil Dance<\/em>\u00a0debuting on\u00a0The Australian iTunes Charts\u00a0at #1 in\u00a0Metal, #1 in\u00a0Rock and #6 for\u00a0All Albums, Australia will no longer be denied!<\/p>\n
