Kill Your Stereo

Armed with an air tight, high energy live show and a load of irresistibly catchy singalongs, Heroes For Hire will be hitting the road this October for their most extensive headline run to date, with support coming from New Jersey’s own pop punk contenders I Call Fives, as well as Brisbane quintet I Am Villain. With the May 2011 release of their second album, Take One For The Team, Sydney pop punkers Heroes For Hire have made good on their promise to take over the airwaves. Forever on tour in their trusty van, be it festivals with Paramore and Parkway Drive, arena tours with Short Stack, Unwritten Law and Boys Like Girls or sweaty clubs with Fireworks and The Wonder Years, the release of Take One For The Team has been spearheaded by the singles “All Messed Up” and “Secrets, Lies and Sins,” both of which have become commercial radio staples throughout Australia, with the latter being among the most requested tracks on Channel V since premiering in August.

Angelas Dish, from the New South Wales’ Central Coast will be heading to New York and Orlando, Florida from late October to work on album number 3 with renowned US producer/mixer Michael “Elvis” Baskette (Incubus, Story Of The Year, Stone Temple Pilots). This partnership is not a new one; Elvis mixed three songs from the band’s 2010 release Walk Into The Sky – and clearly, he liked what he heard! Elvis has signed on to work on this album as producer, contributing some of his extensive song-writing knowledge to the project. With good friend and producer Sonny Truelove in tow, Angelas Dish (Mick Harris – lead vocals, Josh Harris – guitar and vocals, Peter Clarke – bass and Chris Allison – drums) is deeply ensconced in rehearsals for their new album. “We’re incredibly excited to be able to work with Elvis and Sonny again” frontman Mick Harris explains, “and, given his previous successes, we feel very blessed to be able to have this chance to walk in the footsteps of bands as skill...

The first Melbourne show of the Alcest/Heirs ‘Le Secret’ Australian Tour has sold out. A second show at The Curtin Bandroom on Thursday 27 has been announced, and is now on sale. This October, Melbourne five-piece, Heirs, will release the first taste of its forthcoming third album in the form of a 10"/CD titled, ‘Hunter’. To celebrate the release, the band is touring Australia in October 2011 with French metal-gazing giants, Alcest. Hailed as one of the best post-metal albums of 2009, Heirs’ debut, Alchera, established the band amongst Australia’s foremost instrumental acts. 2010 saw the release of Heirs’ second album, Fowl, displaying a shift towards a broader sonic palette, taking further influence from industrial, darkwave and gothic rock. Incorporating a pugilistic rhythmic foundation with coarse, threatening guitar textures and a stronger electronic presence, Fowl marked a great leap forward for Heirs, taking them beyond genres into a realm that is almost hermetic in its v...

Super fine speedy Aussie punk rock.
