About the event
Brazilian duo TEST bring their explosive live show to Aotearoa, delivering a chaotic blend of deathgrind, noise and experimental heavy music that has earned them cult status across the global underground scene.
Formed in São Paulo by João Kombi and Barata, the band first became known for performing outside major metal gigs using a generator-powered VW van before going on to share stages with the likes of Napalm Death, Carcass and Mr Bungle.
With over a thousand shows worldwide, 19 releases and appearances at major extreme music festivals, TEST have built a reputation for fearless performances and boundary-pushing sound.
Tickets available via Under the Radar. Presales $20.
