Last month AJ Maddah revealed that Chelsea Grin were “very good odds” to play Soundwave 2013, and now it looks like we can put another act on the almost confirmed list.
Following the news today that Devil Driver and Six Feet Under had cancelled their Australian tour, Dez Fafara let slip that Six Feet Under would be back for Soundwave 2013:
Australia letting you know @sixfeetofficial will be on SW next year so you’ll get your chance to hear the Legend ….#apologies

Soundwave was Australia’s most successful summer festival in 2012 with sold-out shows in Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne. Meanwhile, Big Day Out saw one of its worst years in history, having to downsize shows in Adelaide and Perth before selling half the company to the US promoters, C3. It will be interesting to see how things play out in 2013.
