In 2011, Sarah has just […]

“I know there’s a lot of people bummed out about my former band (Fall Out Boy) not doing anything right now, but hopefully they are happy that everybody is going out and getting all the shit out of their heads so to speak and feeling better and making cool stuff.” In music, the term “supergroup” can be used quite loosely, […]

“As a frontman, I am quote antagonistic, I like to attack the crowd, but at the same time not alienate myself from the crowd.  It’s a weird balance between kicking them up the ass and telling them that you love them…” Since 1998 Skindred have been bringing it with their genre defining, well actually, let’s say genre creating, blend of […]

In 25 words of less:  Unashamedly 80’s inspired melodic rock anthems with more keys than a locksmith, destined to further affirm the international standing of my fellow Aussies. Releasing two studio albums in 12 months is not an easy task, no matter who you are, but combine that with the much hyped “second album syndrome” and you could be destined […]

In 25 words or less: “They’re not going to get any new fans from it, but their core fanbase will  be stoked to hear what they’ve come up with.” ‘I’m With You’ is the first Chili Peppers album since ‘Stadium Arcadium’ in 2006 and although I’ve never been a huge RHCP fan I have to give them credit as they […]

Australia is really starting to show the world that they can produce bands of an amazing calibre, many of them could stand toe to toe with the big boys and give them a run for their money.  We feel that Diamond Eye is one of those bands.  As they’ve coined their music ‘Stadium Rock at its finest…’ and with a […]

In an era where many of us are still loving the rock music that we grew up with but many bands are too cool to even try and still play it, Diamond Eye refuse to forget those days and have no intention of changing who they are either.  These boys love to rock and they have taken elements of every […]

In 25 words or less: Massive.Party.Metal.Anthems. Made.For.Pumping.Fists. Air.Guitar.Good.Times. Comes.With.Keytar. Crank.Loud.Made.To.Enjoy. With a band name such as Electrik Dynamite, Hair.Denim.Sex.Metal as the album title and claims of delivering “party metal”, it was a pretty safe bet that this Melbourne based 6 piece was going to deliver my style of hard rock.  But what I probably underestimated was just how good this […]

With a title such as Music For Muscle Cars, my ears couldn’t help but already form an opinion of what they were going to hear before I had pressed play on this the second EP for Melbourne hard rockers Destroy She Said.  Big, fat, chunky, pounding riffs, screaming solos, sharp as a razorblade vocals and a style of rock that […]
