HEALTH- 'YOU DIED' Single Review
HEALTH have released the fourth brand new single from their upcoming album, a melancholic and mournful track that exposes the very vulnerability of what it means to be human. ‘YOU DIED’ takes a slightly different approach from the vibes of the previously released tracks from ‘CONFLICT DLC’ , with witch house, trap and industrial elements coming to the forefront. Atmospheric and heavy, delicate vocals deliver pained lyrics over soft glitchy beats. Getting its name from the ic


HEALTH- 'THOUGHT LEADER' Single Review
Industrial “cum-metal” trio HEALTH have released the third new single from their upcoming album 'CONFLICT DLC' . Melancholic yet undoubtedly heavy, this track is the epitome of what makes HEALTH unparalleled. 'THOUGHT LEADER' is an exploration of “digital isolation, cynicism, and emotional numbness in the modern age”. The noise of society is portrayed through melodic guitars and beating drums layered over HEALTH’S heavy synth pulses. There is an air of haunting and ache i


GRIM- 'Hammer Of Justice' Single Review
GRIM’s latest single ‘Hammer Of Justice’ is a testament to what makes Aussie hardcore so special. This song is equal parts outspoken and abrasive but is ultimately drenched in passion and holds absolutely nothing back.

Taking influences from hardcore/slam and classic 90's heavy drop-tuned guitars, this song is ruthless a

Fresh, Sydney-based band, The Admired are bringing back classic Australian emo pop in their latest single, ‘All I’ve Got’. The Admired offers a nostalgic ‘love letter’ for the ephemeral place that was Tumblr in the early 2010’s and the ‘fangirl’ scene around emo and pop punk so many of us look back on fondly.


Prompts- 'Deceiver' Single Review
Japan-based metalcore band Prompts have just dropped their hectic new single "Deceiver", a track that is pure chaotic energy and a total sonic assault (in the best way!) 'Deceiver' is unapologetically ferocious right from the start. Pushing the boundaries of genre and convention, this track is infused with nu-metal, deathcore and mathcore influences to create a heavy yet experimental sound. Brutal riffs, layered gutturals, distorted sounds and eclectic rhythms create a caco
