Read MoreBrisbane’s purveyors of pure filth, Babirusa have released the epic deathcore single, ‘Mandatory Malevolence’, riding the much-deserved hype train in the lead up to this track’s unveiling.
Having amassed an army of pig-warriors, steadfastly supporting the band and poised to throw down to the brutality that Babirusa have created, the new single should pull a dirty grin from their fans.
Read MoreBrisbane has been producing heavy music of amazing calibre over the last few years, and metallers Revoid can be counted among the talent pool, particularly with the release of the epic new EP, ‘Sleepless Still’, which is out now.
‘Sleepless Still’ is both pummelling, abrasive and unrelenting, at the same time able to balance and blend in melodic (and lighter) elements
Read MoreIn the lead up to their ‘The Colour of Crisis’ EP (due out on April 8), Adelaide’s The Daily Chase offer up their final single, the massive drum-and-bass-meets-metal track, ‘Light You Up’
‘Light You Up’ feels like it’s completely rave-ready, and for the first 43 seconds, you could be easily mistaken that this was intended for the dance floor. And boy, it was intended for something… straight to the mosh pit

Read MoreMelbourne musical mastermind Lalchand has shared a soaring new single "The View From Here" which features Garrett Russell of Silent Planet and Liam Guinane of Reside. The single is the title track from forthcoming feature-filled EP, to be released Friday October 8.
‘The View From Here’ is both hefty and melodic, blending alternative emo rock, with prog-bordering-on-djent rhythmic tones.

As you’d expect with this style, the drums are slamming hard, the guitars and bass are full, and the vocals guttural. There’s a nice surprise with a melodic bridge 2/3’s of the way through the track, before the build up back into a throat-tearing, chugged-out chunky breakdown.
