Band information

4ARM is a thrash band from Melbourne that formed in 2004. A year later the group released a full-length album that gained some overseas exposure. A second album showing a more mature approach came out in early 2010 and 4ARM was added to the Testament tour in August. By the middle of the following year the band had completed work on a third album mixed by Matt Hyde. In November of 2011 they toured Australia with Destruction. Submission for Liberty was picked up for international distribution by Rising Records; after its release the band announced international touring including a spot at the Download Festival in the UK and a three week US tour in early-mid 2012 with Deprivation and Casket for Cassandra. The band abandoned their American tour after only two shows, citing issues with the promoter. This caused them considerable backlash but late the same year they were announced as the opening band on an early 2013 US tour with Testament, Overkill and Flotsam and Jetsam. On the band's return to Australia, guitarist Johnny Glovasia left 4ARM. After a short search, he was replaced by Markus Johansson.
