Interview by Kris Peters
After over a decade of devotion, intensity and passion, Melbourne's VOID OF VISION have announced that it is time to bid farewell to fans and announce the What I'll Leave Behind Australian Tour for 2025; a huge headline run where they will celebrate the end of an era one final time to close out their chapter. VOID OF VISION will be joined for their swan song tour in February by special guests GIDEON (USA), UNITYTX (USA) and KNOSIS (Japan).
The What I'll Leave Behind Australian tour will commence on Friday 14 February in Brisbane, before heading to Newcastle, Sydney, Canberra, Melbourne and Adelaide, and bringing the VOID OF VISION story to a close on Saturday 22 February in Perth, offering fans across the country one last chance to witness the ferocity and stunning dexterity a VOID OF VISION live show always brings, and offering the band and fans an opportunity to bid farewell in unforgettable fashion.
The brainchild of Japanese multi-instrumentalist and vocalist Ryo Kinoshita, KNOSIS grips with hard-hitting lyricism and razor-sharp delivery, channelling Kinoshita's internal battles into magnetic sonic creations. With songs written to reflect the pure emotional essence of pain and loneliness, KNOSIS collides everything from metal riffs through to hardcore breakdowns, simultaneously sparking listeners to smash their PBs in the gym while also offering an emotional journey to uplift and inspire against the odds.
HEAVY caught up with RYO to talk more about the tour and Knosis.
