Thrashville - Sept 2022

Thrashville, the ‘slightly heavier’ music festival held at Dashville in the Hunter Valley, is psyched to announce it's return this Friday 16th and Saturday 17th September 2022.

Held in lush bushland confines, the popular bush blast, which has savoured some hefty knocks over the last couple of years, is back with a vengeance, ready to deliver a fresh plate of awesome emerging and established acts, which will spark pure delight into anyone with a pension for punk, hard rock, heavy metal and everything in between.

The two-night festival will feature two stages of music, with around 20 acts on the bill, along with live graff artists, tattoo studio and pro-skateboard displays.

For the first time ever, the shifty extreme punk of Wollongong’s TOTALLY UNICORN, Sydney based punk rockers FANGZ, revered Newy punk rockers HACK THE MAINFRAME, Sydney metalcore maniacs ARTERIES, along with a healthy cast of local emerging acts CRUCIAL TIMES, BOYCOTT, TIRED MINDS, TELURIAN, LATEST GOD and THE WANDERING.

We welcome back the devout all-consuming punk, stoner, metal experience that is THE NEPTUNE POWER FEDERATION, Newcastle loveable lord of the rings, THE AUSTRALIAN BEEF WEEK SHOW, the funky sludge/ doom that is MOUNTAIN WIZARD DEATH CULT , local all-girl punk band BITCHCRAFT. From the 2020 edition, heavy duo ASTRODEATH and prog metallers The WITCHING HOUR return, as do local collaborators BLOODY HELL and still moist from their exceptional set at PigSty in July, we absolutely had to invite the loveable squadron WELL?
