It was mid-Summer 2023, yet another balmy night had met us in good old Brisbane town. The Brightside was the venue, and Canada’s own Comeback Kid had brought some friends along with them, and yet again it was party time from the get-go. Enter Drain from the sun-drenched beaches of Santa Cruz, California. As this […]

One does not need to bang on about the current state of the world and its not so new limitations, Ten News….wait every news channel has a hourly loop on that topic if you so desire to subject yourself to that a bit more.

All Good Things recently released the awesome album A Hope In Hell after blowing the music world a new eardum with hit singles For The Glory (featuring Hollywood Undead) and The Comeback (featuring Craig Mabbitt from Escape The Fate).
The grandiose yet still heavy laden tunes are as cinematic in scope as they are filled with hooks and have struck a chord in a time where hope is on the decline.
Excuse the direct wording used to start this off but let’s be honest, at the time our mindsets were: here comes another tour, another international band spreading its metaphorical wings for its first-ever tour down under and yes we were bloody excited and ready to have our ear canals punished yet again by another insanely talented band!

Right down into it and no fuckin’ around – Benediction’s new album Scriptures? Well, it fuckin’ rules!

It’s hard to think of Deftones (technically) being a band from the late 80s! After all the (then) four piece from Sacramento, California were stenciling out what would become the quintet which we all have had the pleasures of listening too from our various audible devises/ equipment which just like the band have evolved over the last 30 plus years as well. Before moving on from the history lesson it must be pointed out that Deftones has now existed in five different decades, how’s that for longevity?
