Aura Noir Black Thrash Attack NZ Tour 2018

Spreading their path of destruction to New Zealand shores for the first time, come Aura Noir.

Aura Noir, the creators of what would then be called black thrash metal, came together in 1993 as a result of Aggressor and Apollyon’s disappointment with the metal underground trends, the overused use of keyboards, and the beloved productions, Aura Noir came as another unholy poisonous wind to regenerate a sterile and indifferent scene. Blasphemer joined in 1996 to contribute to the first full length album and the line up has not changed since.

Influenced by visionaries of the 80s such as Sodom, Celtic Frost, Venom, Voivod, Dark Angel, etc. they felt that this void on the stage had to be somewhat supplemented by the entry of new bases and so black thrash metal was born. Together with bands such as Gehennah, Inferno and Nocturnal Breed, Aura Noir was found in the ramparts of a new wave in the metal underground, the school of the dirty thrash dirty.

Hails to the supporting bands that shall join Aura Noir this brutal and blood-soaked tour in Auckland and Wellington…….

“We are Exordium Mors and we will see your body condemned to the flames; your shade forever hailing our name along the pathway towards eternal chaos and battle. AVE!”
