New Jersey hell-raisers Lorna Shore make their triumphant return to Australian shores and their first visit to New Zealand this October.

Lorna Shore will be joined by American deathcore merchants Whitechapel for all Australian shows, Massachusetts heavy hitters The Acacia Strain will take the stage for all shows and New Zealand death metallers Organectomy will open on NZ dates only. 

The tour arrives in support of Lorna Shore’s 2025 album I Feel the Everblack Festering Within Me. The band’s fifth record topped the UK Rock & Metal Albums Chart and received rave reviews, with Kerrang! calling Lorna Shores the “latter-day Parkway Drive if someone peeled off all their skin” and awarding the album four out of five.

Commencing the tour in Australia on Friday 16 October at John Cain Arena in Melbourne, Lorna Shore will roar through Adelaide (AEC Theatre on Saturday 17 October), Perth (Metro City on Monday 19 October), Sydney (Hordern Pavilion on Wednesday 21 October) and Brisbane (Riverstage on Friday 23 October), before crossing the Tasman for the final three gigs in New Zealand in Wellington (Shed6 on Monday 26 October) and Auckland’s Powerstation on Wednesday 28 and Thursday 29 October.
