‘Battlesnake are killer, what a band’ – Kam Haq – Live Nation / Download Fest UK
The rising titans of Australian heavy metal, Battlesnake, are returning home in thunderous fashion this September and October for their long-awaited The Year Of The Snake Australian Album Tour, celebrating the release of their ferocious third album, Dawn Of The Exultants and The Hunt For The Shepherd.

Now, Battlesnake are coming back to where it all began. This is more than a tour. It’s a homecoming celebration. A reckoning. A resurrection.
The tour marks the Australian unveiling of their most ambitious work to date. Dawn Of The Exultants and The Hunt For The Shepherd sees the band reach new creative heights, melding face-melting riffs, operatic grandeur, and apocalyptic storytelling into a sonic experience unlike anything else in modern metal. Drawing from the mythic influences of Queen, Judas Priest, and Black Sabbath while carving out a sound uniquely their own, Battlesnake have once again raised the stakes.
The album’s singles, The Fathers Of Iron Flesh, Shepherd Hunter and Murder Machine were instantly added to playlists around the world including All New Metal and Local Noise on Spotify and Breaking Hard Rock & New Music Daily on Apple Music making a huge impact.
Debuting at #8 on the ARIA Album Charts and #1 on their AIR Independent Charts – their best results on both, ever, Dawn Of The Exultants And The Hunt For The Shepherd marks a new chapter in Battlesnake’s ever-expanding saga.
A number of incredible high rating reviews the world over are claiming this as they year of the Snake too!
Distorted Sound 8/10, GBHBL 9/10, Metal Digest 8/10, Musipedia of Metal 9/10 and many more!
Expect a full-force live show of epic proportions, a night of sweat, steel, and serpentine chaos, driven by the band’s legendary theatricality, monstrous musicianship, and an unrelenting wall of sound. From underground clubs to festival main stages, Battlesnake have built their reputation on pure, undiluted energy and they’re bringing it all home.
With a rapidly growing legion of fans and critical acclaim from both sides of the hemisphere, Battlesnake’s 2025 Australian Album Tour is set to be their most explosive yet. The Exultants are rising and the Shepherd is on the run.

My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
