North island ep tour

Chasing Titans North Island EP Tour

We are absolutely thrilled to announce our first official tour promoting our debut eponymous EP across the North Island. That's right, we're taking our music on the road and we can't wait to share it with all of you!


Since its release in December 2022, our EP has received overwhelmingly positive reception and support, with our first two singles "Cabin Fever" and "Vengeance" charting and being featured on radio stations in the US, UK, France, Australia, and Mexico. As such we want to make our first tour a special one and are also bringing along some of the most amazing punk, hard rock and metal bands that the North has to offer! You won't want to miss a single second as Channeled, ALTAEA, Afterlight, The Boondocks, Dead Empire, and Black Gravel City take the stage alongside us.


We're kicking things off with a bang at Ding Dong Lounge in Auckland on the 3rd of June, where Channeled and ALTAEA will join us for an electrifying, high energy night. From there, we're heading down to Nivara Lounge in Hamilton on the 17th, where we'll be cranking up the volume and unleashing our hard-hitting sound with The Boondocks and Afterlight. And we're not stopping there - we're bringing it all home to Tauranga at the Voodoo Lounge for a very special and unforgettable finale on the 24th with Dead Empire and Black Gravel City. To celebrate the final show of the tour and thank our fans for their loyal support, this special event will be free entry!


So mark your calendars, clear your schedules, and get ready to mosh with us on this epic tour. Grab your tickets below!

Bio

Chasing Titans is an alternative metalcore band hailing from Auckland, New Zealand. Formed in 2018, this three-piece group made up of Adrian Govender (guitar/vocals), Sylvester Porizakova (bass/vocals), and Torrance Kam (drums/vocals) has been making waves in the local and international scene with their distinct and powerful amalgamation of metalcore, infused with elements of hip hop and electronica, coupled with emotionally charged and poignant lyrics.

The name Chasing Titans, inspired by the Greek Titans, reflects the philosophy of never giving up on one’s biggest dreams and striving for greatness. It captures the spirit of perseverance, and the belief that anything is possible through hard work and determination. 

Chasing Titans has gained a reputation for their intense and energetic live performances, with Penrose Underground calling their performance “Superb” and the highlight of the party, and From The Hip declaring them “an EPIC Metal Band” who “rocked so hard there were nails and screws falling from the ceiling boards!”. 

The band has performed at a number of venues, including Ding Dong Lounge, Voodoo Lounge, The Wine Cellar, Penrose Underground, The Underground, Whammy Bar, and The Thirsty Dog. They have also had the opportunity to perform on New Zealand's own From The Hip music channel and had their first demo featured on US-based show Local Band Smokeout. 

Chasing Titans self-titled debut EP was released in December 2022 and features three singles, including their first, "Cabin Fever," which was written during the lockdown of 2021 and explores the feeling of isolation and the descent into madness that can result from it. The second single, "Vengeance," is a song about revenge in the context of domestic abuse, written from the standpoint of a victim who has reached their breaking point and is determined to fight back. "New Depravity," the third and final single, is inspired by the character Ferdinand Lyle from the horror series Penny Dreadful and examines the internal struggles of a person who appears to be good but is compelled to do evil deeds. 

The band's debut EP has been met with an overwhelmingly positive reception since its release in December 2022. Music critic Kev Roland from music.net.nz said, “This certainly doesn’t sound like a debut as these guys are polished, tight and heavy,” while US label Moosic Entertainment called it “a requirement for you to put it in your playlist!”. Both the first and second single from the EP, "Cabin Fever", and "Vengeance", have charted and been featured on radio and media in the US, UK, France, Australia, and Mexico, with "Cabin Fever" achieving a peak position of number 3 on the Top 10 list on Valley FM 89.5 (Australia), garnering further acclaim for the band. 

Drawing inspiration from artists such as Bring Me the Horizon, Rage Against the Machine, A Day to Remember, and Trivium, Chasing Titans has created a sound that is uniquely their own. From the ferocious intensity of “Vengeance” to the introspective isolation in “Cabin Fever”, Chasing Titans tackles a wide range of topics with raw honesty and passion. 

Their first official music video for "Cabin Fever" was released in January 2023, with the video for "Vengeance" scheduled for release later in the year. Their North Island EP release tour will begin in June 2023.
