Hardcore punk rock legends Dead Kennedys have announced they will be returning to Australian stages for the first time since 2011, with a national tour this October.

The tour kicks off in Adelaide, before taking in nine stops around the country and finishing up in Perth a few weeks later.

Dead Kennedys have been informing the thoughts of audiences for almost four decades. With four studio albums, various EPs, live albums and compliations as well as various lineup changes and thousands of shows – they show no signs of slowing down.

The Bennies will be supporting them on most dates.

See Dead Kennedys, with support from The Bennies, when they take over The Hi-Fi on Sunday October 5. Tickets go on sale Friday July 4 through Oztix.
