TO THE GRAVE Unleashes Brutality with New Music and Tour Announcement

TO THE GRAVE, the unyielding vegan deathcore juggernaut from Australia, has officially inked a deal with BLKIIBLK, the heavy metal arm of Frontiers Label Group. As they embark on this new chapter, the band has detonated 'Eyestalk Ablations', their first offering since the grim mid-point of 2025, accompanied by a visceral music video that pulls no punches. This marks their inaugural release under the BLKIIBLK banner, and to add fuel to the fire, they’re set to invade North America for the first time since 2024, when they shared the stage with OCEANO.

In a bold statement on the signing, Mike Gitter, the global head of A&R for Frontiers and BLKIIBLK, declared, 'BLKIIBLK is proud to be working with Australia's TO THE GRAVE. From ethic to execution, they are hard-working and completely uncompromising. TO THE GRAVE musically assaults, but they also inform with a message that fights for pro-human and pro-animal rights in a desensitized world. A call for direct action, brutal sounds, and a key addition to the BLKIIBLK roster.'

Dane Evans, the fierce frontman of TO THE GRAVE, expressed his enthusiasm, stating, 'Being signed to BLKIIBLK is another clean, exciting gear in the meatgrinder and we couldn't be more stoked to be working with the team there. Can't overstate how cool it is to be locked in with the legends there, alongside some bands and names we've looked up to most of our lives.' He elaborated on 'Eyestalk Ablations', describing it as 'a shotgun blast to the face: claustrophobic, heavy from front to back and not a second wasted on room to breathe.' This track embodies the raw, savage essence of the band, a brutal resurrection of their earlier ferocity.

The accompanying video reportedly offered the most fun the band has ever had filming, with Evans humorously noting that this time he escaped the fake blood treatment. 'Massive thank you to Colin Jeffs for pulling no punches on a really cool concept and QLD police for not being able to find the place,' he quipped. The visuals are as intense as the music itself, promising a gripping experience for the audience.

But hold on, the onslaught doesn’t stop there. The band’s upcoming North American tour is poised to be a merciless affair, co-headlined by the relentless CROWN MAGNETAR and bolstered by FACE YOURSELF, alongside a rotating cast of heavy-hitters including I DECLARE WAR, TRACHEOTOMY, BACKBITER, SQUELCHING, and the newly formed AMEONNA, featuring former members of CHELSEA GRIN. Bassist Matt Clarke couldn’t contain his excitement, exclaiming, 'These are the heaviest lineups we've ever put together. No matter what show you're hitting, you're in for a treat.'

Mark your calendars and prepare for chaos as TO THE GRAVE storms through North America with their brutal artillery, ensuring that each show will be a visceral experience unlike any other in the metal scene.
