Band information

Double Dragon is an Adelaide band playing heavy and aggressive modern thrash. The group formed in 2005 and issued an EP shortly after, very quickly moving to the fore of the Adelaide metal scene. Double Dragon supported Arch Enemy and Dark Tranquillity in 2006, also releasing a second CD. In 2007 the band featured at the Adelaide Big Day Out and supported Slayer and Mastodon in April. They featured on the national Festival of the Dead tour in late 2007.

James Chamberlain replaced Ben Murphy in March 2008, but he was in turn replaced by Davin Buttery in September. The band's album Devastator was issued in May 2008 after a national jaunt with Soilwork and in November the band then toured nationally with The Haunted. In 2009 the band released a split CD with Truth Corroded and undertook a national tour with them. Following this, Double Dragon played around Australia with Slayer and Megadeth in October.
