While comparisons to KISS have been made – even their followers are dubbed ‘Army of Darkness’ – industrial rockers Darkc3ll are their own breed of animal. The band was part of the 2014 Soundwave line-up, an opportunity that has paid off big time for the band.

No doubt you’ve all heard the expression ‘it’s the journey, not the destination’. I mean, out of all the street press readers out there, you are by far the smartest. For former Bellevue frontman Jimmy Kyle, who now works under Chasing Ghosts, this is indeed true. For many years Kyle had a musical home in hardcore. In 2010, however, a new chapter was started…

Have you ever caught yourself thinking, ‘I love John Farnham’s You’re the Voice, but it could do with a wild yodelling makeover’? Have you ever caught yourself thinking, ‘I love Olivia Newton-John’s Physical, but it’s just not unnaturally desperate enough’? Have you ever caught yourself thinking, ‘I Love INXS’s Devil Inside, but it could do with a whole lot more devil inside it’?

Tickets remain for Guttermouth’s show at Barwon Heads Hotel, Barwon Heads on April 5. You see, they’re trying to make amends. Back in 2013 the band toured Australia for what was supposed to be the final time. Things did not go swimmingly.

If there is one thing worth preaching about, it’s rock and roll. And Midnight Alibi preaches it as good as anyone. To them, rock and roll ain’t what it used to be – but that is something they want to change. They’re down’n’dirty rock’n’rollers, who’ll play anywhere, anytime.

Autumn is alive with the sounds of “modern day gypsy” Marta Pacek and the “amazing charming” Jessica Stuart Few, who have teamed up for a string of dates. Marta grew up on the outskirts of Canberra and began her career writing and recording with Mark Seymour.

In 2010, a bunch of dudes broke free from their rut to form Northeast Party House. Combining the exhilaration of dance music with pop hooks and rock backbone, the band struck gold with their track ‘Dusk’. Since then, fans have been hoping for something with a little more bulk.

Slow-dance country music is one way Pork Chop Party has been described; horny suicidal music is another. And Anto Macaroni and Pinky Blue are the ragged souls behind it all. Early last year the pair released their debut 7˝ The Suicidal Sounds of Pork Chop Party, a release that came with the unofficial warning…

Bloc Party frontman Kele Okereke lands in ‘In the Loop’ territory tonight, with a date at The Karova in Ballarat. The tour supports his second album, Trick, released towards the end of last year. Recorded in London and New York, the album, the follow-up to 2010’s The Boxer, saw Kele dive headfirst into electronic music, scoring a good chunk of warm press in the process.

Geelong will welcome another new live music venue at the end of the month, with the opening of St James. Many people would know the space by previous names including Blue Martini, Statik or even Escalation, however the new owners are looking to bring not only a fresh face to the venue but also a fresh sound. We spoke with venue manager Ken Fountain and entertainment manager Brendan Yuen to find out a bit more.

Please make feel welcome Portland’s Red Fang, who will be touching down in Australia shortly for their first headline tour. While the heavy-hitting band did take in Soundwave in 2013, this tour casts the spotlight firmly on them. The band released their latest (and third) album, Whales and Leeches, in 2013.

360 Allstars has been described as a radical urban circus, a place where two world champion breakdancers, a basketball freestyler, a Roue Cyr artist and live music comes together. The production features celebrated international artists from UK, Europe, Asia, North America, South America, Australia and NZ in a theatrical performance that explores all forms of rotations.

Two is all it takes for the terrific sounds of Microwave Jenny. Describing their music as “pop/folk/love”, this duo just happens to be the husband and wife team of Tessa and Brendon Boney. Ah yes, this is a tale of love and music. It is a tale of a gal from Woy Woy and a fella from Wagga Wagga, both of whom travelled to Sydney for gigs.

With their blend of thick, driving rhythms, atmospheric layers, intricate solos and powerful, emotive vocals, Divine Ascension has struck a loud chord with metal fans. Part of the band’s appeal is frontwoman Jennifer Borg, whose voice once heard is not easily forgotten. They formed out of Melbourne in 2007 after guitarist Robb Inglis placed an ad in melband.
