American post-rock greats THIS WILL DESTROY YOU are marking their 20th anniversary this year and theyve announced an April 2025 tour performing their 2008 self-titled album in full for the occasion, along with songs from throughout their catalogue.

The band will return to Australia for the first time in 10 years, playing shows in Perth, Adelaide, Brisbane, Sydney & Melbourne.

On this tour they will be joined by Perth instrumental trio Yomi Ship, fresh from a European tour alongside Plini and performing at ArcTanGent Festival in the UK, as well as popular Sydney emo quartet Mowgli, on the cusp of releasing their debut album in 2025.

Formed in San Marcos, Texas, TWDY has enjoyed a meteoric rise since the release of their debut Young Mountain in 2006. Since then they have earned critical plaudits and notched up worldwide sales over 100,000 copies for their catalogue, including 2008s follow-up full length S/T and several EPs (2009s Field Studies, 2010s Moving on the Edges of Things and Communal Blood).

The abyss of endless touring and isolation on the road became the catalyst for the bands third album, Tunnel Blanket. While previous albums managed to strike a universal chord of human hope and near-optimism toward the future, Tunnel Blanket reflects the dark and intricate sides of human emotion, grief, and tragedy.

After the release of a cathartic live album, recorded in Rekjavik, Iceland, the band bunkered down for the release of their fourth full length album, Another Language, featuring pulsating washes of sound blended with an undeniable beauty of composition.

Known for their destructive live sound and influential brand of ambient, melodic instrumental rock (dubbed doom-gaze in recent times), the band recently announced they would be splitting into two touring lineups each led by one of their co-founding guitarists, Jeremy Galindo and Christopher King. This Australian tour lineup will be led by co-founding guitarist Jeremy Galindo and will also feature fellow Texas musicians Ethan Billips (Body Tape, Blank Hellscape), Johnnie McBryde and Nicholas Huft (Dismissal). The same lineup recently completed an extensive North American tour and headlining tour of Europe, including Belgiums prestigious Dunk Festival and Indianas Post Festival.

After several sell out shows on their maiden tour of Australia in 2013, This Will Destroy You captured the minds and hearts of a loyal following on this side of the world.

This Will Destroy You last toured Australia on their Another Language tour in 2015, selling out headline shows nationally and combining for additional massive shows in Sydney & Melbourne alongside sleepmakeswaves on their Great Northern tour.

Dont miss this chance to see this iconic group create beautiful noise down under once again.
