For more than four decades, Flotsam and Jetsam have stood among thrash metal’s most respected and enduring names, sharing stages with Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer and Venom while carving out a legacy entirely their own. From the legendary Doomsday for the Deceiver through to modern-era releases including The End of Chaos, Blood in the Water, I Am The Weapon and upcoming new album Rats In The Temple (August 28), the Arizona veterans continue to deliver pure, uncompromising thrash metal at the highest level.
Now, New Zealand fans will finally get the chance to witness the band live and up close at Auckland’s Whammy Bar for one night only.
Joining them will be Auckland heavy hitters Just One Fix and rising metal force Head Lock Grave.
