Following the unrelenting devastation of their 2024 album Cursed, Paleface Swiss are dragging their visceral, genre-defying deathcore back to Australian shores—and this time, they’re not coming alone.
Presented by The Phoenix AU, the Cursed Tour sees Paleface Swiss teaming up with beatdown bruisers NASTY for a run of shows that promises chaos, catharsis, and raw, guttural power at every stop. After leveling stages alongside In Hearts Wake on their debut Aussie tour last year, Paleface Swiss are ready to carve even deeper into the scene—and they’re bringing a setlist sharpened by fire, grief, rage, and rebirth.

CURSED – A RECORD THAT HITS WHERE IT HURTS
Out now via , Cursed is not just a sonic onslaught—it’s a deeply personal exorcism. With themes centered around loss, betrayal, and internal war, it’s easily Paleface Swiss’s most emotionally violent work to date.
Tracks like “The Orphan” and “Deathtouch” aren’t just heavy—they’re suffocating. And it’s that suffocation, that primal honesty, that has seen fans rally behind the band with cult-like loyalty.
The band’s evolution from 2022’s Fear & Dagger to Cursed is steeped in sharpened musicianship, emotional clarity, and a deeper dive into the human psyche—and for guitarist Yannick Lehmann, that meant pushing his own playing to match the depth of the message.
NASTY X PALEFACE SWISS – TWO STORMS COLLIDING
Fans got their first taste of the brutal synergy between NASTY and Paleface Swiss with the track “Talk” off NASTY’s Black My Heart EP. Featuring Lehmann’s razor-edged guitarwork and the crushing vocal trades between frontmen, “Talk” feels less like a feature and more like a battle cry.
That same ferocity will bleed into the Cursed Tour, with both bands sharing the stage night after night—an atmosphere Yannick promises will be nothing short of unrelenting.
🎸 GUITARS, GRIT & GROWTH
As a guitarist, Yannick Lehmann brings more than just riffs—there’s an emotional weight to his playing that drives the band’s sound forward. Whether it’s detuned punishment or moments of eerie, melodic dread, Lehmann approaches his work with both precision and purpose.
The bond within the band is stronger than ever, and that connection is set to erupt onstage this September across six Australian cities.
💀 DON’T SLEEP ON THIS TOUR
If you caught Paleface Swiss last time, you know what’s coming. If you didn’t—this is your shot to get cursed, live and loud.
Pairing the sheer brutality of NASTY with the emotional firestorm of Cursed, this is one of the most essential heavy tours hitting Australia in 2025. Don’t just witness it—survive it.
Grab your tickets, get in the pit, and prepare for impact.
