Swim To Thrive
“[My dad] made me get up and I rapped a verse in front of them, and they lost their crap, basically. They loved it, which was an amazing feeling – I’d been listening to all those guys since I was about five years old.”

Ready To Explode
"I have a whole bunch of new songs under my belt and am ready to just get it done. This time around it feels so much more comfortable."
Crack House Party
“I wrote the lyrics about my great aunt, who is quite ill and is a very inspiring figure. The song still has drive, particularly when performed live.”
Chasing Dreams
“I’ve been writing anti-suicide messages since 2006, and it just didn’t cross my mind that people would take it the wrong way.”
Keep Your Dreams
"It’s actually a real priority for us to stick out like that... You know, I think we take a lot of pride in how we tackle our sound and how we tackle our lyric writing."
Prehistoric Sounds
"Generally I know what is going to be a ‘Raptor song – generally it’s something that I can see having elements of twelve people using, whether that’s a huge gang vocal, or a call-and-response, or just sounding really raw."
Making Millions
We caught up with guitarist Ted from Millions for a bit of a chat.
Room To Breathe
Brisbane duo DZ Deathrays feel more like a real band now they have their debut record Bloodstreams on the shelves. Guitarist and vocalist Shane Parsons tells Dan Condon about their struggles with whooping cough and Harold from Neighbours.
