Black Veil Brides Sidewave

With their dark-edged punk attitude and cock-rock swagger Black Veil Brides are ready to take their place among the most popular young rock bands in the world today. The hard rock industry is beyond saturation so anything that steers away from the norm seems like a blessing. Their sophomore album Set the World on Fire has alternative press declaring it “Anthemic arena metal that draws equally... Read More
Metalocalypse - October 26, 2011

RAWR! You know what's weird about music, is that it's way less melodramatic behind the scenes than those two other forks in the entertainment trident. You've got billion-dollar video games publishers being as corrupt as anything and those endless miles of self-important bullshit in Hollywood, but rarely do I encounter the same when communing with men and women of music these days. Tell you why... Read More
Trivium

From teenagers scouring for leftover food and drink on Machine Head's rider to Roadrunner Records' gold-selling metal kings, in just six years Trivium have gone from obscurity to international superstardom in what sounds like a rags-to-riches storyline. Learning from the best in the business along the way, the Florida four-piece are taking it up a notch this year on new album In Waves... Read More
Arcane Saints

Arcane Saints founder, singer and guitarist Michael John can't remember the first song he wrote. "But it was probably about how much I hated school," he chuckles. "I got expelled from my first high school for continual disobedience, so I'd write these angry songs about authority. To this day I have a problem with authority and I don't like being told what to do." UK-born and raised in New... Read More

The Warnambool demons of head banging, fist slamming hard rock Airbourne are back this June for a headlining tour after smaching Big Day Out crowds across the nation.   The Airbourne brand of metallic hard rock has taken European and US audiences by storm and the boys are back to Australia after a hectic 2010 packed full of recording their latest slab of...

Iron Maiden : Hisense Arena

Only a few short years ago it seemed that newer generation of fans (or anyone silly enough to miss their 1992 Festival Hall show) would never get to see the mighty Maiden perform in Melbourne. Hopes were dashed each tour announcement as Steve Harris and company would schedule their regular European and US dates and leave the Australasian region to make do with their memories and remastered back...

Coheed And Cambria

Coheed And Cambria are a band that divide opinion, and defy classification. Fitting vaguely, and for purposes of convenience, somewhere close to the 'progressive rock' genre, yet the New York natives take their sound into stranger and more varied territory than that. Drawing influence from such classic rock/classic prog sources as Rush, Led Zeppelin and Queen, they also throw some... Read More
30 Seconds To Mars

Soundwave 2011 is almost upon us, and talking to a band such as 30 Seconds To Mars, it's time to reflect upon the sheer diversity present in this monumental lineup. From the illustrious classic metal of Iron Maiden, to the evil but symphonic black metal of Dimmu Borgir; from the all out thrash assault of Slayer, to the gritty stoner rock of Monster Magnet and High On Fire; the...

Bullet For My Valentine

Wales' biggest ever heavy music export Bullet For My Valentine must really love Australia. No doubt there's just as strong an element of Australia loving Bullet For My Valentine in return. They were here in September last year for a series of sold out and critically extremely well-received headline shows. Now, towards the end of February, they're back, this time as one of the feature... Read More

Devildriver

California's Devildriver have never exactly been the shrinking violet type of band. But their new album, happily titled Beast , takes the piledriving element of their music a step further again. To pun very poorly, it's an absolute animal of an album, and obviously very appropriately titled. It veritably bursts out of the speakers with, dare I say it, animalistic fury, and... Read More
This Town Needs Guns

With band members including an ex-librarian, ex-graphic designer, ex-website publisher, and a current school teacher, it's no big surprise that UK newcomers This Town Needs Guns are raising the bar in complex, mind-bending math-rock. Kicking off 2011 with their debut on Australian soil as part of the Soundwave Festival, guitarist Tim Collins says TTNG are on a mission to cover all... Read More
Veara

‘Why aren’t you in college?’, ‘Why don’t you have a real job?’, ‘How’s your little band doing?’… There’s only so much condescending crap you can take from small-minded folk before you make the decision to show them why , according to Brittany Harrell. For her band Veara, the answer came in the form of album... Read More
New Found Glory

Tell vocalist Jordan Pundik that his band New Found Glory are considered the best pop-punk band in history, and he’ll giggle and tell you it makes him feel funny. Because as far as the frontman of the Florida five-piece is concerned, he’s just a regular dude who you wouldn’t even look at twice in a crowd, and yet it’s Pundik’s band that are responsible for...
