This October sees the colossal union of New Zealand’s heavyweight metal/post-rock outfits for a national tour. Beastwars and Jakob are both highly regarded in their respective sub-genres, and the chance to witness them sharing stages around the country is an experience not to be missed. With the playing order decided by coin toss each night, the bands have already slayed the South Island, and this weekend sees them blowing up the North Island!
