FROM modest beginnings in the grounds of Port Adelaide’s Pirate Brewing, Froth and Fury Fest has blossomed into a huge two-state extravaganza with the first line-up reveal for next year’s event today.

The mighty Polaris take main billing on this first announcement, alongside brethren In Hearts Wake, with the legend that is Max Cavalera taking out two slots with Soulfly and the legendary to-the-point-of-mythical-Nailbomb making their first Australian appearance ever.

If that wasn’t enough, punk legends Lagwagon, Comeback Kid and the great Frenzal Rhomb and Private Function will also be there, along with death metal in the shape of Aborted and Archspire, Abbath doing Immortal stuff and Zuko, Ocean Sleeper, Gridiron and Terminal Sleep so far announced as well.

Pre-sales and ticketing are available from www.frothandfuryfest.com/ now.
