About this concert
After what seems like an eternity, Australias bastard sons of grind King Parrot have finally announced their much anticipated return to North America. The band lastventured across the pond back in 2018, and with their latest EP Holed Up in the Lair released during the Covid era, the band are ready to hit the road and do what they do best... Destroy stages everywhere across the US as only they know how. Not only will they appear at swag of festival dates, theyll appear alongside Pantera and Lamb of God at __ select shows on the East Coast as well as touring the rest of the US and Canada The band recently completed an Australian tour with old pals Unearth, and havebeen keeping busy touring throughout Australia since live music resumed. Their 7 EP Holed Up In The Lair released on Housecore Records is a blistering example of what the band is capable of and features guest vocals by Philip Anselmo on the track Nor Is Yours. The ridiculous animation film clip for the track Kick Up A Stink keeps true to the King Parrot theme of absurd videos to accompany their unique and off- kilter take on grindcore, thrash and punk rock. Vocalist Matt Young comments on the impending tour We couldnt be happier to announce our return to the US and continue the work that we have done over the last decade. It really was our second home before the world stood still for a minute, so to have this opportunity to pick up where we left off is something we are truly grateful for. The honour of getting to play alongside Pantera is something onlydreams are made of, and there was no way in hell we were going to turn down thatopportunity. Our little old band from Australia has still got a hell of a point to prove,and we have just as much venom in us as the day we first set foot in the US in 2014.Well see you all this September!.

Spirit In The Room Biography
"If Nick Cave, Lemmy, Elvis, Harry Dean Stanton, and Iggy, had a child in a church gone mad... That is Dennis.” -Steffan Charizi (editor of Metallica's So What! magazine)
Dennis Sanders is the frontman and creative force behind Los Angeles based band Spirit In The Room. The Spirit In The Room sound is complex and a challenge to categorize, a kaleidoscope of sound... compared to an experimental version of The Jesus Lizard, Nine Inch Nails, Black Sabbath and as loud and aggressive as bands like The Butthole Surfers and Ministry. Emotional, sexy and unpredictable songs that will make you want to dance but get you fucked up and inhabited by a punk fury. The dynamic high energy live shows are like a brick to the face as well as a soft place to fall. Sanders and Co are astounding live, seducing humans one show at a time across the west coast, as well as becoming a staple on the LA scene.
