About this concert
To celebrate 30 years of Shihad, the band are undertaking a New Zealand national tour - coinciding with the release their classic 1998 album "The General Electric" on vinyl for the first time. "The General Electric" was the LP that re-established Shihad's position as sonic giants of the music industry, with hit singles 'My Mind's Sedate', 'The General Electric' and 'Pacifier'. Once again joining the boys are Auckland's energetic hard rock band Villainy, representing the new vanguard of Kiwi rock. As special guests the freshly reanimated sludge-metal monsters BEASTWARS will add their heavy riffage to the mix, dipping into their trilogy of albums "Beastwars","Blood Becomes Fire" and "The Death Of All Things" as well as sharing some new material.

Shihad Biography
Shihad are a four-piece band from New Zealand, comprising Jon Toogood (guitar/vocals), Tom Larkin (drums), Karl Kippenberger (bass) and Phil Knight (guitar). Their style is best described as "hard rock", although they were described as "metal" in their formative years.
Shihad were formed in 1988 in Wellington, New Zealand. They were briefly known between 2002-2004 as "Pacifier". During this time the band was attempting to break into the US market and it was decided that Shihad sounded too much like the arabic word 'jihad', thus the name change. Their major albums and EPs include:
Devolve (EP) - 1991
Churn - 1993
Killjoy - 1995
Shihad - 1996
Blue Light Disco (EP) - 1998
The General Electric - 1999
Pacifier - 2002 (as "Pacifier")
Live - 2003 (as "Pacifier")
Alive (EP) - 2004
Love is the New Hate - 2005
Beautiful Machine - 2008
In the course of their career, Shihad have toured with and supported rock acts such as Faith No More, Filter, Motorhead, Metallica, AC/DC, Ash, Silverchair and Fu Manchu, and have a reputation for their energetic and powerful live performances. Despite a huge following in New Zealand and Australia, they have never attained significant mainstream success outside of Australasia.
