LAST WORDS PRESENTS

DIAMOND CONSTRUCT

SAT 29 AUG

W/ Harroway & Aurateque

It’s been almost 2 years since Diamond Construct last headlined Sydney - and we’ve been itching for an excuse to go stupid and throw another proper belter - so we said f**k it, why not?

We dug deep and pulled some serious strings to lock this in - these boys are out here smashing massive stages, so getting them into a sweaty, chaotic, wall-to-wall Bootleggers is gonna be absolutely filthy, show-of-the-year energy.

Harroway have been killing it, fresh off touring with Make Them Suffer and Fit For A King. Throw in Aurateque to kick the night off with a bang and you’ve got three headline-level bands on one bill.

Oh yeah, did we mention this is gonna be a big part of BOOTLEGGERS' 3RD BIRTHDAY celebrations too?

Lets ****ing GO!

We do our best to make this scene and great shows accessible for all - and we're big on putting our money where our mouth is - so we're doing something stupid to kick this one off - 24 HOUR EARLY BIRDS UNDER $30 - you're welcome xo

On sale right now. Once the 24 hours is up, the price jumps; and this one is gonna fly. Don’t sleep on it.

Doors 7pm, straight into Last Words Emo Night afterwards like always.

See you in the pit 🖤

    Diamond Construct
    Their debut, self-titled album and subsequent follow up EP, "DCX2", with the help of Aus- label Greyscale Records, propelled the trajectory of the band to new heights and attracted the attention of US-based label Pale Chord, with both labels seeing the glimmer of originality and creativity evident in the production of their sophomore LP titled “Angel Killer Zero” which dives further into their unique blend of analogue pedal driven guitars, electronic production and catchy vocal hooks – sees the band push the boundaries of the metalcore sound. Known for their explosive energy on stage - Many laps of Australia, alongside such heavy- hitters as label mates Alpha Wolf and Justice For The Damned, as well as international acts like Emmure, Ten56, Stray From The Path and Bury Tomorrow have created a base of loyal, frothing fans, recognising that there's no better place for Diamond Construct than on a big stage, commanding the energy and putting everything in to their show from the first note to the last. This is Diamond Construct. Kynan Groundwater - Vocals Braden Groundwater – Guitar Liam Newman – Drum
