Promoter Matt Leost has launched a brand new emo night in Sydney called Panic! At The Metro - a night for all those punters crying out for the club nights of old to return, the chance to see bands and dance the night away to all the classic 2006/2007 core emo classics and and also spot all the band members also hanging out. We chatted with Matt about just how influential and important those club nights were and how he hopes to return that to their former glory.

The highly anticipated follow-up to Mansionair’s stunning debut album arrives today, and to celebrate the release of ‘Happiness, Guaranteed.’, the band take us through its collaborative second half.
