The Amity Affliction, Little Bastard, The Babe Rainbow and more

The Amity Affliction's new album Let The Ocean Take Me will be triple j's feature album next week while indie bands Little Bastard, Drunk Mums and The Babe Rainbow land prominent adds.

Brisbane post-hardcore band The Amity Affliction crashed servers when they released the first track from the album, Pittsburgh, earlier this year and second single Don't Lean On Me was the top debut on the ARIA Singles Chart last week with over 6,000 sales. It's the second local feature album in a row with Remi's Raw X Infinity spinning this week.

Four of the eight main playlist additions are also local, with Sydney country-punk collective Little Bastard landing Be My Kind – a stand-out of their selftitled debut – on rotation. Melbourne's Drunk Mums have also been added with Plastic, as have Queensland feel-good trio The Babe Rainbow with Secret Enchanted Broccoli Forest (who've just announced a tour) and Angus & Julia Stone's Rick Rubin-produced comeback single Heart Beats Slow.

There are also spot adds for Sydney acts Seekae, with their new track Test & Recognise, and Jonathan Boulet, in his return to the airwaves with Hold It Down, as well as Perth's Felicity Groom with Move Your Muscles.
