SPLINTER Drop Gritty New Tour Vlog ‘South Eastern Decimation’

Newcastle, Australia-based hardcore outfit SPLINTER unleash their newest chapter with ‘South Eastern Decimation’, a raw and unfiltered tour vlog capturing the chaos, grind, and camaraderie of life on the road. Shot across their recent run through Adelaide, Frankston, Hobart, Melbourne, Sydney, Canberra, and Newcastle, the video offers a deeper look into the band’s relentless energy — not only on stage, but in the crucial moments before and after each show. From cramped green rooms to long road and flight stretches to the surge of a crowd seconds before impact, the vlog embodies the pulse of Australian hardcore at its most authentic.

The footage delivers a rough-cut realism: tired eyes behind the van window, gear being dragged across unfamiliar floors, and the heartbeat of anticipation as the band assembles backstage. Every city brings a different environment, a different intensity, and SPLINTER let the camera roll through all of it. It’s a testament to the grind — the unspoken rituals, the quick warmups, the adrenaline spikes — that define the touring life of a rising heavy band.

Intercut with these personal moments are glimpses from the shows themselves, capturing SPLINTER in peak form. The pits erupt, the stages shake, and the band’s signature aggression translates into every venue along the route. From the raw humidity of Adelaide to the coastal charge of Frankston, the packed rooms of Hobart and Melbourne, the explosive energy of Sydney and Canberra, and finally the hometown firestorm in Newcastle, the vlog stitches together a visceral timeline of the entire run.

With ‘South Eastern Decimation’, SPLINTER deliver more than a recap — they present a brutally honest snapshot of who they are when the lights dim and the amps roar. It’s a celebration of movement, of community, of the grit required to keep pushing forward. For fans and newcomers alike, this tour vlog stands as a declaration: SPLINTER are here, they’re hungry, and the decimation has only just begun.
