The following article was published on November 17, 2025 following the Australian tour’s initial postponement.
The ongoing drama with all-female metal band Dogma continues, as promoter Hardline Media has postponed the band’s upcoming Australian tour.
The drama would start last week as multiple former members of the band would share statements online, calling out the band’s management and accusing them of “manipulation” and “mistreatment”.
Former guitarist Amber Maldonado (Lamia) would share details, recounting her time in the band from 2022 until 2024. According to Maldonado, management would manipulate her into touring and would instigate fights over her working schedule. When not touring, the guitarist says she would be required to attend meet-and-greets and interviews and deliver “pages of AI word salad,” of which she claims she was never compensated.
Days later, guitarist Alice Chiara (Lillith III) would also reveal that she also faced issues with the band’s management, claiming she only found out she was going on tour through a social media post despite not having a work visa to perform.
As of writing, former members including vocalist Grace Jane “Lilith” Pasturini and Guitarist Patri “Rusalka” Grief would also issue statements sharing their criticisms of Dogma’s management.
If you were interested in seeing the new band members perform, well, you’ll have to wait as their upcoming Australian tour has been postponed, with no new dates mentioned.
Dogma had intended to start their tour on November 26 in Adelaide; however, Hardline Media would announce that they had postponed the tour, writing:
“Dear Dogma fans,
“Due to the current situation unfolding we are postponing the Australian shows for now.
“We only want to promote the band we, and you, thought we were getting.
“We will do all we can to make this happen. But this will take a little time. Please hold onto your ticket for now while we try to sort this for you.
“If we cannot make this happen, refunds will be processed — but we need your support to make this happen. A big way of showing your support is holding onto your ticket, which will allow us to navigate this to a positive outcome where you, the fans, get what you paid for.
Much respect
Hardline Media”
