Halloween
Linkin Park & Evanescence tribute

We are taking you back to the 2000s this All Hallows’ Eve with an unforgettable night of nu metal, alt rock and punk at Crowbar.

Linkin Park tribute Points of Authority have had their biggest year yet, playing to massive crowds around NSW, including a 500 person strong audience at Crowbar back in January. They make their return this Halloween to cover the best of Linkin Park’s phenomenal first two albums Hybrid Theory and Meteora. Their setlist features heaps of classics that the real Linkin Park left off their recent Australian tour.

Queensland’s tribute to Evanescence, Bring Me To Life are treating us to their first ever Sydney show, performing iconic alt-metal anthems from the albums Fallen, The Open Door, Evanescence, Synthesis and The Bitter Truth. With vocals perfectly recreating the haunting sounds of Amy Lee, they are not to be missed!

Nintendo-Core Pop Punk band Glitch Kingdom are playing their high energy originals, full of frantic drums, diabolical guitar riffs and video game synthesisers.

Fat Bald Idiot are opening the show with their own punk rock offerings. Short, fast and hilarious, get down early to catch this rowdy start to the evening.

Prizes for the best dressed! Make sure you show up in costume.

System of a Down
& LIMP BIZKIT Tribute
TOXICITY 25 ANNIVERSARY

System of a Down’s monumental album Toxicity turns 25 this September, and to celebrate, tribute band Aerials are performing every song live at Crowbar!

The genre-defining record spawned SOAD’s biggest songs, Chop Suey, Aerials, ATWA, Prison Song and of course the title track Toxicity, as well heaps of fan favourites. You’ll hear the entire album covered in order, followed by bonus System of a Down hits from their other releases.

NSW’s premier Limp Bizkit tribute Insignificant Other are back to bring you the chaotic Fred Durst energy of the early 2000s and otherworldly Wes Borland guitar sounds, with a setlist stacked front to back with Bizkit bangers.

Alt-Metal 3 piece Krave are coming down from Brisbane to join this lineup. With raucous riffs and a frenetic live show, they are guaranteed to get you headbanging to their set of heavy original songs.

DVNTS are opening the night with their own alt/grunge/metal offerings. The Central Coast band deliver a much bigger sound that you’d expect from a 3 piece with their fat fuzzed out bass lines and angsty vocals, so be sure to come down early for their set.
