“The greatest pop-punk band in history” – Brett Gurewitz
New Found energy, New Found purpose; New Found Glory is back in the ring.
As opposed to the majority of their stale contemporaries, New Found Glory attacks each album with a breath of fresh air in a genre saturated with vocoder and neon. With an impressive catalog that hosts some of the most memorable pop punk songs of the past decade, their Epitaph Records debut ‘Not Without a Fight’, shows just how well they put their competition in a finishing headlock, “there’s no need to put up a fight, because New Found Glory takes the title by default.” – Absolute Punk
New Found Glory has never sounded more incredible, and as their legion of Australian fans can attest to they have taken the genre by the throat and defined it with their sound.
Springing out of the Ohio cornfields in 2003, Hit The Lights have managed to establish themselves as one of the most irresistibly catchy pop/punk bands around. On the back of their latest EP ‘Coast To Coast’ they have managed to not only help define a genre, but they have become “the unadulterated voice of kids with skateboards and iPods.” – TruePunk.com
The highly infectious triple bill of New Found Glory and Hit The Lights will wind its way around Australia in April.
Due to huge demand we are also thrilled to announce that an Under 18 show has been added in Melbourne with a strictly limited capacity!
“Back in 2006 a little pop-punk band from Detroit released a six song EP that pretty much was, for all intents and purposes, the best slice of the genre ever served in a long, long time. I mean, the best.” – Sputnik Music. After the underground success of their ‘We Are Everywhere’ EP put them on the map, it was the full length ‘All I Have To Offer Is My Own Confusion’ (produced by Chad Gilbert of New Found Glory fame), that cemented Fireworks position as one of the leaders of the current pop punk boom. We are thrilled to announce that Fireworks will be joining the highly infectious bill of New Found Glory and Hit The Lights.
