"Avatar have evolved into one of metal’s most wildly inventive live forces. They orchestrate chaos on stage with a full blown metal machine at their base. The set is a masterclass in controlled madness. The songs land like hammer blows, each one bigger than the last. An unmissable spectacle from start to finish – what a night!!" - York Calling
"Johannes Eckerstrom is without a doubt one of the greatest frontmen of our time. The flair and theatrics of Alice Cooper crossed with the charisma and vocal ability of Freddy Mercury and Bruce Dickinson, he is a true force of nature to be dealt with on stage" - Everblack Media
"The mark of a great show is that it doesn’t end when the lights come up. It lingers, echoing in your bones, reminding you why live music still matters. Avatar didn’t just play a concert in Silver Spring. They staged a war, a carnival, a ritual and for those lucky enough to be there, it was one hell of a night." - Park Life DC
AVATAR ANNOUNCE AUSTRALIA & NEW ZEALAND TOUR
Australia… you thought they forgot! They did not. They waited. They sharpened their claws. They let the forest grow wilder, darker, hungrier. Three years is a blink in eternity, yet long enough for the trees to learn your secrets. Now they return not as visitors, but as conquerors. Bring your torches. Bring your madness. Bring your soul laid bare. Step into the woods and let The Clown paint your face with fire. Do not go in alone… because once you enter, you never truly leave.
In 2023, when we declared AVATAR one of the greatest live metal bands on the planet, some were incredulous. Then Australia witnessed the crushing the band delivered. Dance Devil Dance hit #1 on the iTunes Rock and Metal Albums Charts (and #6 across all genres), and the doubters vanished.
Now AVATAR return with the triumphant release of their tenth studio album, Don’t Go In The Forest, continuing their legacy of crushing riffs, soaring hooks, masterful songwriting and shadow soaked storytelling.
Australia prepare to pledge your allegiance. The reckoning has arrived.
