Amyl & The Sniffers

Melbourne fans can hear the new Amyl And The Sniffers album a day early thanks to local record store Soundmerch.

If you took nothing else from Taylor’s keynote, it was this: “B*tch, this is the entertainment industry, don't think about it too much!”

Ahead of BIGSOUND 2024, Simone Ubaldi and Andrew Parisi of Sundowner Artists discuss the incredible success of one of Australia's greatest music exports: Amyl And The Sniffers.

The band’s forthcoming album is about the "climate crisis, war, AI... and people feeling like they're helping by having a voice online when we’re all just feeding the data beast of Big Tech."

The band have also released a music video for 'U Should Not Be Doing That' starring Grand Theft Auto’s Steven Ogg.

“This announcement is really a calling card of what BIGSOUND represents,” says programmer Tom Larkin.

Dark Mofo and Zaachariaha Fielding of Electric Fields fame have made National Live Music Awards history, both holding the record for the most wins.

Off The Rails shows what can be achieved in our streets when we take cars away and let people congregate with a shared purpose: to enjoy life and one of its most essential elements: music.

"The awards are here to honour all those amazing artists, bands and individuals who have made your live music industry one of the best in the world."

“If I die and you write an article/post about how sick I am after I die, I literally will haunt your loved ones."

You can tune in to all episodes of RuPaul’s Drag Race Down Under on Stan.

This festival is stacked with a who’s who of Australian punk and rock music.
