Total Annihilation With GRAVEMIND

Brisbane’s Mansfield Tavern is locking its doors and bracing for total structural failure. The third annual Necrosonic Festival is descending on Saturday, August 22, 2026, delivering 12-plus hours of unrelenting extremity across three stages. While international powerhouses Rivers of Nihil and homegrown technical death metal legends Psycroptic are set to co-headline, the middle tier of this massive bill holds some of the most devastating weapons in the Australian heavy music arsenal. If you want a band that will completely tear the skin from your face with clinical, heavy precision, look no further than Melbourne deathcore juggernauts Gravemind.These guys have spent years mastering a sound that functions like a well-oiled killing machine. They don't just write breakdowns; they engineer sonic earthquakes that blend punishing, technical riffs with vast, cinematic atmosphere. Following the massive success of their critically acclaimed sophomore album Introsphere, released via Greyscale Records, Gravemind have proven they are not content with sitting safely inside the boundaries of traditional deathcore. They weaponise melody, injecting dark progressive layers and experimental dynamics that keep listeners totally off-balance before delivering a swift, blunt-force trauma to the jaw.HEAVY sat down with vocalist Bailey to find out more about what to expect at Necrosonic.Tickets to Necrosonic and more information https://necrosonicfestival.com/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.
