What?

The New Christs, born in Sydney in the early 80’s, formed by none other than Radio Birdman front man, Rob Younger. The New Christs pride themselves on appearing spasmodically in Australia and internationally over their almost four-decade long history. Throughout the bands career they have released five studio albums, Distemper (1989), Lower Yourself (1997), We Got This! (2002), Gloria (2009) and Incantations (2014). 2025 see’s the release of a long-awaited compilation titled ‘The Burning of Rome – Selected Works’. Songs hand-picked by Rob Younger from across the band’s history – set for release late 2025.

The New Christs’ high-energy performances are what they are renowned for both at home and away. Songs like ‘Born out of Time’, ‘We Have Landed’ and ‘Coming Apart’ are etched firmly into the Australian underground music psyche. Younger’s unmistakable voice and unshakable stage presence remains a consistent draw card for lovers of Australian garage rock. Rounded out by an incredible line up of musicians The New Christs feature members of Radio Birdman, Celibate Rifles and the Screaming Tribesman to name but a few. Solidified as one of Australia’s best live bands, you don’t want to miss The New Christs, appearing at The Tote Hotel in Collingwood. Supported by JJ McCann & River of Snakes.
