Themata Decade Tour

It’s been a decade since the release of Karnivool’s Themata album and the band is fresh from their tour around Europe coming back with a flash and cutting-edge tour. The Themata Tour celebrates the band’s achievements and journey since it was produced. Karnivool’s vocalist, Ian Kenny, says the tour is what Australian audience wants and they are in for a delightful treat.

“This tour is important to our fans as it holds it’s own time,” Kenny explains, “As a band, we’re going to play the Themata album in its entity, with respect and honour.”

The progressive rock band from Perth have excelled in the music industry and have kept fans waiting in suspense for new music, yet the band is waiting and stirring their lyrical and instrument pot of genius with a prospective album in the future.

“We’re currently in the process of writing up potential songs for a new album,” Kenny says, “But we’re going to give the audience the Themata tour first and then knuckle into the studio when we’re ready.”

The Australian music industry is known to be hard to break into and to maintain audience’s interest. However, Karnivool have not lost their fan’s spirit as they continue to support them on the band’s endeavors.

“We’re very fortunate as a band that we have the support of our audience, not just in Australia but also around the world,” Kenny explains, “The rock industry will never die, and neither will metal. It’s just changing at it’s own pace as the accessibility to music will.”

Karnivool have released a special edition of Themata on vinyl and continue to strive to create more music for the audience’s appeal and their own. The tour has sold out one of the two shows in Sydney due to the popularity and unconventionality.
