NECROSONIC FESTIVAL RETURNS FOR YEAR THREE
😈 THE ALTAR DEMANDS MORE..
⛧ SATURDAY 22 AUGUST 2026
⛧ MANSFIELD TAVERN • BRISBANE
For the third year, the gates reopen.
The veil thins.
The congregation gathers.
Necrosonic Festival returns to Mansfield Tavern on Saturday 22 August 2026 - bigger, darker and more unhinged than ever before.
What began as a bold new gathering of the heavy has become an annual ritual for those who like their music brutal, immersive and intensely forbidden..
Each year the circle widens.
Each year the offering grows.
By this, the third gathering, the altar expects something unforgettable. Something louder than last year..

NembutoliKBrisbane 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. -
