Here’s an album that has been a long time coming. In their near 20 year history Melbourne’s Dark Earth have played a ton of shows but only have an EP under their belts; 2004’s The Summoning of the Swarm. Now finally, finally,...

The self titled EP from Melbourne’s Evolution of Self might be almost a year old but the guys are breathing new life into it with a straight up party video with the lot; beers, bikinis (both male and female) and...

Talk about starting on a high note. The artwork and 2 minute teaser that appeared online last week was all looking quite promising for the new Syd/Can band Somnium Nox, and their debut track certainly lives up to it! 16 minutes...

3-piece Involuntary Convulsion have been floating around Melbourne for a while now with live shows and numerous teasers & tastes of their debut recordings, and now they’re here. Tempus Edax Rerums is the 5-track debut  EP, and it’s as brutal...
