After a hugely drawn out wait, the usual amount of ‘leaks’ and social media back and forth, the 2016 Soundwave line up finally was revealed in its entirety on Friday evening. Ahead of the weekend, the first of two line up announcements dropped, with names including Disturbed, Deftones, The Prodigy, Bullet For My Valentine and more featuring.
Like previous years, Soundwave has been curated to include artists from a variety of genres – there’s some sick reps from the alt-rock and heavy corners, not to mention rap and punk also coming through strongly. The festival tour next year will be heading to sites in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane next January so for those fans left wanting, fingers crossed for some killer side shows in the south and on the west coast still to be announced.
