Three new acts have just been announced for Soundwave 2016

It’s the festival that keeps on giving and with just over two months until we can finally get our mosh on, we’re stoked more acts are getting added to the Soundwave Festival‘s line-up. Just announced a short time ago is New Jersey metal act Ill Nino alongside horror metal band Terror Universal and last but not least the boys from Killswitch Engage who are making their triumphant return to the festival with a very special show lined up for fans.

Yes you read that right, Killswitch will be performing their critically acclaimed 2002 album “Alive or Just Breathing” in it’s entirety for you to feast your ears on. Holy fucking Shit that is going to rule. Now you know us here at Wall of Sound are open to magical things including collaborations and special guests joining bands on stage to enhance your days that extra bit more, but what do you think the chances are of former Killswitch Engage fromt-man Howard Jones joining his former band mates on stage for a classic rendition of one of his tracks or even a special duet with current singer Jesse Leach on a track like “My Last Serenade” or “My Curse“?

The chances are probable considering Howard will already be at the festival with his new band Devil You Know. Guess you’ll have to be there to find out if this pipe dream could in fact become reality. Tickets are still available for the tour which kicks off in Brisbane on Janurary 23rd.
