Total Attack Festival
Who would've thought we could make it to year
number 6?! Total Attack is back again for another insane weekend long
rager filled with a huge variety of Australian and International D.I.Y.
Hardcore punk, rock'n'roll, metal and anything else loosely affiliated.
After last year's raging success as a fundraiser event (donating in
excess of $6000 to the ASRC), we will be keeping it as the tradition of
Total Attack from now on.
This year we will still be donating to the ever-dedicated and life changing Asylum Seeker Resource Center down in Melbourne (http://www.asrc.org.au/) if you're not aware of what the ASRC actually do, it's very much
encouraged that you spend some time reading the information on their
website, the sort of money we're able to donate really goes a long long
way for people doing it rough.
Once again let's come together
for an awesome weekend to show that when a collective put's their minds
to it and gets away for a weekend of fun, we can still make a difference
to lives who aren't as well off as ours.
We managed to get
shafted last minute by the original venue...we won't mention any names
but the legends at The Beetle Bar have stepped in and saved us for all 3
days.
They'll be providing food and beers all weekend, so I
reckon you'll be fine? They are also nice and central to the CBD so
you'll have no issues with transport or accomodation.
We will be facilitating for ALL AGES, so do not fear if you're underage or want to bring your youngin's along.
Beetle Bar is located at 350 Upper Roma Street and you can access it by
walking from Roma Street station for like 5 minutes or less, too damn
easy.
We have secured TWO international bands for this years
Total Attack – coming all the way from Singapore LUBRICANT will be
touring the country doing most of the east coast in April before TA and
rounding off with Canberra and Adelaide in May thanks to LOST IN FOG and
NGM RECORDS.
New Zealand's heavy crust maniacs ROGERNOMIX
will be returning to do a proper tour of Australia after coming over for
SUCH IS LIFE a few years ago but only playing a few shows, they will be
touring around with Melbourne HC punk freaks TACTICAL ATTACK coming out
of TA.
Here's the full list of confirmed bands playing
across the weekend, we've tried to mix things a bit more once again from
last year – we have tried to keep to our “no interstate re-offenders”
policy but a few slipped through the cracks and landed on the festival.
LUBRICANT (S.E.A.) - Power house HC punk, mem. of Vaarallinen & Daily Ritual.

ROGERNOMIX (N.Z.) - Heavy hittin' crust from NZ.
