When the Labour Day long weekend rolls around this October, Wollongong festival Yours & Owls will be playing host to a bunch of local and international indie and rock talent. Just a heads up from us to you.

If you're an avid listener of Triple J's The Racket, then you may have heard the new Make Them Suffer track yesterday. If you didn't, don't stress, as the new single is streaming now!

Victoria's Stonefield have gone fully psychedelic with their newest single, 'Changes'.

Everyone's favourite Aussie rock band (don't deny it), Violent Soho, have released a music video for their song, 'So Sentimental'.

In about five weeks time, Despised Icon will release their comeback album, 'Beast'. Following the brutal title track, the band seems to have backed off on the deathcore element and amped up their hardcore influences with a new song.

'Excuse me, do you have a moment to talk about One Gone Thus?'

After the shitstorm that was Phil Anselmo yelling 'White Power' at Dimebash 2016, the frontman may soon find himself under scrutiny again after some recent YouTube goings-on.
