Hungry to cement themselves in the Australian metal scene, Demente from Mexico City bring a new flavour of metal to DDS with a stage show to match - promising a theatrical gore-ridden performance that fans will never forget.

Along with three national acts - Nembutolik, Kűntsquad and Greedy Bunch of Parasites - DDS is attracting heavy metal talent from all over Australia, all keen to get their toe in the door of the thriving WA metal scene.

DDS is also very excited and humbled to have three legacy WA metal bands in iNFeCTeD, Vanadium B.C. and ENFORCE on the lineup. These bands represent the best of WA metal from as far back as the early 1990’s, having played alongside the likes of Allegiance and Fear Factory, they are very popular and very well respected in our metal community.

Local Perth brutal death metal band Iniquitous Monolith will also headline DDSIII on Friday 20th November. Iniquitous Monolith are inarguably one of WA’s best and most hard-working heavy metal acts. We're stoked to have them!

All of these, supported by South Australia’s Greedy Bunch of Parasites and WA’s awesome locals Oceans & Omens, Psychonaut, Psytopia, Undeniable and Terror Adaptors. DDS will also bring the best emerging talent to really showcase how good WA heavy metal artists are - including FistDead, Prophetic Execution, Deathcap Dinner Party and FUXION.

    Brisbane deathcore outfit Product of Neglect are steadily establishing themselves as ones to watch in the
    local heavy scene. Featuring the singles “Perpetual Night” and “Cerberus”, the band released their debut
    album Synthetic Freedom on 2 February to modest success. The nine-track project, originally intended to
    be shared as two conceptual EPs, showcases the best that they have to offer with a narrative journey of
    love, hate and abandonment. Its horror movie samples and crystal-clear mix marks an impressive foray into
    gloomy slam territory, bolstered by quality over quantity.

    Product of Neglect is Brandon Lee Haase on vocals, Pierce Thompson and Gregory Laird on guitars, and
    Christopher Steley on bass. Forming on New Year’s Eve in 2019, guitarists Pierce and Greg were jamming
    with their current vocalist on drums when the idea of starting a band came to fruition. After the trio
    discovered that Brandon had the perfect voice for their sound, they quickly appointed him as the frontman.
    In early 2023, Chris joined on bass and the rest fell into place, eventually leading to Synthetic Freedom.
