- **Event Name**: KATATONIA | SAT 10 OCT | NORTHCOTE THEATRE, MELBOURNE 
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 10 Oct, 2026 at 01:00 am (+11:00)
- **Event Description**: Swedish masters of dark melody KATATONIA return to Australia and New Zealand in 2026, bringing songs from their haunting new album Nightmares as Extensions of the Waking State to life on stage, plus major milestones from the band’s extensive catalogue of astounding albums.

‘Stagnation’ is not a word in the Katatonia dictionary. Since breaking through as masters of
death/doom, Stockholm’s freethinkers have transcended genre, consolidating goth, shoegaze and prog into bleak, melodic songs.
 
After three decades of invention and reinvention, Nightmares as Extensions of the Waking State marks another bold leap – not to mention singer, founder and lead songwriter Jonas Renkse’s most personal effort to date.
 
Drawing from such albums such as the powerful The Great Cold Distance and Dead End Kings, Katatonia’s live concerts deliver a fan’s feast of dazzling experimentation which is astonishingly more metal than ever without holding back on the anthems. The dark hooks and tender vocals remain, yet the band also drive in unpredictable directions while delivering their hardest riffs in years.
 
Rejoice! It's time to bring KATATONIA’s haunting brilliance and signature vibrant darkness back to stages across Australia &amp; NZ.

“The Swedes played gems from their back catalogue, spanning over twenty years, and fans were losing their minds. It’s quite a picture to watch fans scream with excitement to the soft opening chord to a song that begins so minutely different to the last – some serious passion.” - Wall of Sound
 
“It’s hard to say what the highlights of Katatonia’s performance were because my notes on every song are something along the lines of “killer riff”, “solid crowd engagement”, “killer face melting solo” or something to that effect.” - Everyday Metal
