Adelaide progressive instrumental project, Cobra will tour the nation this March in support of their upcoming debut single Gloom, which will appear on their forthcoming debut record Locking Tusks with Creation.
Set for release on March 1 through Solarus Records, Gloom is one of Cobra’s live favourites and will mark their transitions to record outputs, surmising what critics have said about the band.
“Cobra is one of the most exciting bands in Adelaide—it has to be said.” – TEO Magazine
“Cobra are lean, tough and command attention. This trio are pushing metal to its limits.” – Happy Music Blog
Cobra consists of guitarist Yanni Apostolidis, drummer Jonty Czuchwicki and bassist Kyle Clarke.
Founded in 2012 and taking to the stage in 2014, Cobra have spent the last three years writing and preparing for their debut album.
Cobra have supported some of Australia’s most promising heavy bands such as CHILD, Holy Serpent, Hobo Magic and The Love Junkies. Thrashing the local live circuit, Cobra curated a two-year long residency at Ancient World which saw them develop a cult like following and they toured Indonesia in September 2016, playing eight shows in seven cities to crowds of up to two hundred rabid fans.
