It was the biggest-selling album of
1989. 'Hepfidelity', Diesel's first

From the dark corners of Norway, the
beast has surfaced. After 25 years, the
world's biggest black metal forge, DIMMU
BORGIR, invades Australia & New Zealand
for their first ever headlining tour.
Casting shows that will viciously attack
your senses whilst pushing them to their
ultimate limits and showcasing the might
and power of one of the most influential
acts of the genre. Conceived in the
heart of the Norwegian black metal scene
in 1993, DIMMU BORGIR quickly broke free
from the boundaries of the genre, daring
to combine a traditional raven black
sound with opulent symphonic
orchestration. Soon they turned into
pioneers of their field, forging
groundbreaking albums such as Enthrone
Darkness Triumphant (1997), Spiritual
Black Dimensions (1999), or Death Cult
Armageddon (2003). Seven years have
passed since their latest manifesto
Abrahadabra, they are now returning to
rip apart the space-time continuum with
Eonian. 'Australia! It's been a long
time coming and believe us when we
proclaim pure excitement in returning to
perform for you, our supportive fans!
And, New Zealand, it's with a pleasure
that we can finally announce our first
time to your shores - let's make it a
very special happening! We have all been
waiting impatiently!' See you all soon!

Frontier Touring are thrilled to confirm
that UK crooner Calum Scott, the man
behind one of the world’s most
recognisable and loved renditions of
Robyn’s ‘Dancing On My Own’, will play
his first ever Australian and New
Zealand shows this October. The tour
will begin at Auckland’s Powerstation on
Tuesday 23 October before crossing the
Tasman for shows in Brisbane, Sydney and
Melbourne. Scott’s heartwarming
appearance on Britain’s Got Talent in
2015 shot him to instant global stardom,
and when he officially released his
audition song ‘Dancing On My Own’ as the
lead single from his debut album Only
Human, it took the world by storm. The
track quickly accumulated more than 6.5
million worldwide sales, reached 5x
Platinum in Australia and saw the former
recruitment officer from Hull nominated
for the Brit Award for British Single Of
The Year. Upon its release, his album
resonated strongly with Australian
audiences, peaking at #5 on the ARIA
chart. Only Human is the result of a
long, cathartic songwriting journey.
Filled with deeply personal material,
Scott’s ability to transform pain into
beauty is undeniable, whether he is
addressing coming out to his father,
unrequited longing, adolescent
isolation, or the gratitude he feels
toward his sister Jade, who pushed him
to sing on stage for the first time and
auditioned alongside him on Britain’s
Got Talent.
