Led by founding powerviolence fiend Justin Pearson, American grindcore punks The Locust are heading south in February for their first ever tour of Oz.

Rising from the fragments of multiple San Diego acts, The Locust formed in 1995 with the intent to “change the way people perceive music”, and judging by the Pulp Fiction-inspired nylon gimp suits, are well on their way.

Recently returning from a well-deserved break, The Locust are back; tighter, harder and playing louder than ever.

Catch these guys at the Annandale Hotel on Thursday February 6. For more info and ticketing, visit locustpresale.bigcartel.com.
