Killswitch Engage are heading back to Australia this November, with the band’s upcoming run now set to feature UK metal outfit Sylosis alongside Australian metalcore band Heists.
Sylosis were previously announced as special guests for the Australia and New Zealand tour, while Heists have now been confirmed for the Australian dates, joining Killswitch Engage and Sylosis from Brisbane through to Perth.
The Australian leg begins at Fortitude Music Hall in Brisbane on Tuesday 3 November before continuing through Newcastle, Sydney, Wollongong, Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth.
For Killswitch Engage, the shows mark their first Australian headline dates since 2018. The band were last in Australia in 2024 when they joined Iron Maiden for their arena shows.
The tour arrives following the release of This Consequence, Killswitch Engage’s ninth studio album, which was released in February 2025. The record features “I Believe”, which reached No. 4 on the US Mainstream Rock chart.
Formed in Massachusetts in 1999, Killswitch Engage have spent more than two decades building a catalogue that includes Alive or Just Breathing, The End of Heartache, As Daylight Dies, Disarm the Descent, Incarnate, Atonement and This Consequence.
The Australian dates will give audiences the opportunity to hear material from the band’s latest album alongside songs from across their catalogue, with Sylosis and Heists completing the three band lineup.
