Queens Of The Stone Age have been one of the 21st century’s most engaging and ambitious rock groups. Led by Josh Homme, Queens Of The Stone Age have pursued an agenda of moody, sexy, high-energy rock that flaunts its danger and oddness, winning over fans and critics in the process. Releasing their self-titled debut in 1998, Queens Of The Stone Age boasted a stripped-down approach to hard rock and metal that valued gnarly riffs over head-banging theatrics. In keeping with the band’s desert origins, the songs had a sun-baked, slightly eerie quality to them, and as the album’s sexually suggestive cover indicated, QOTSA had a cocky, libidinous streak to them.

However it was 2002 when Queens Of The Stone Age broke through with 'Songs For The Deaf', a sort-of concept album about...

New Found energy, New Found purpose; New Found Glory are back in the ring! With an impressive catalog that hosts some of the most memorable pop punk songs of the past decade, their latest album ‘Not Without a Fight’, is devoid of any guest appearances, covers or bells or whistles of any kind; it’s a straight-up representation of who New Found Glory has become and it’s a glimpse of where they’re headed. The band’s perfection of their sound even has Brett Gurewitz of Epitaph records claiming them as “The greatest pop-punk band in history”. As their legion of Australian fans can attest it’s the live arena where New Found Glory truly shine. “As the night ended, messy haired and sweat slicked bodies piled out back onto the streets. New Found Glory, once again, proved to everyone that pop punk is definitely not dead.” – Faster Louder Effusive, cathartic, influential, brilliant…Less Than Jake never fail to bring the good times. A killer blend of pop punk melodies and skankable grooves, ...

No where was this more evident than when they exploded on to the Australian charts debuting at No.1 with their latest album 'There Is A Hell Believe Me I've Seen It, There Is A Heaven Let's Keep It A Secret'. "For all its bluster, ‘There Is A Hell…. is the sound of a remarkable band establishing themselves as one of the finest of their generation." - Rock Sound The Amity Affliction has created the kind of buzz that you just cannot fake and the noise is about to get a whole lot louder. Upon releasing their sophomore album 'Youngbloods' in June this year, The Amity Affliction shocked the Australian mainstream by debuting at #6 on the Charts.
