Chet Faker's star has been on the rise ever since that cover of "No Diggity" popped up in 2011, but he kept us waiting a long time for his first proper album. Built Like Glass finally dropped last week to a heap of deserved acclaim, and now there's a video to pair up with the moody highlight "1998". Like the song, it slowly crawls out of some grim vibes into something a lot more technicolour. Peep it below.

Brisbane heavy rockers, Flannelette, are catapulting themselves back into the limelight with the release of their new EP, Valley Nights, and the official launch party at The Hi-Fi on May 2.

Brisbane-based progressive metal six-piece FreeThought have just released their debut EP with plenty of complex riffage and grand sounds in the tradition of prog-rock. We sat down with the whole band to have a talk about their inspiring debut.

With the recent announcement of immortal R&B group TLC heading to our shores in June causing mass hysteria, it's only appropriate that we compile some of the quintessential TLC jams for those that want to breeze through the group's stack of multi-platinum albums. With tickets to this hotly anticipated tour being made available to the general public this morning, take this time to remind yourself just why TLC are one of the most celebrated all-girl groups in music history. In no particular order:

From the music to the people to the camping - how did the Deni Blues and Roots Festival go? After 5 days of travelling, Lachlan Mitchell brings us the review and his photos.

Sydney post-punk outfit Ted Danson With Wolves describe themselves as “a noodly four piece”, which isn’t inaccurate, but neither would “shouty four piece”. I just described them as “post-punk”, by which I really just mean they demonstrate an appreciation for the aesthetic pleasure of abrasion, without dwelling unimaginatively in that space. An arguably equally lazy description would be “experimental rock”. They are fresh, unusual, and hard to categorise.

Buzz band Perfect Pussy continue to excite with their debut album Say Yes To Love. This spunky punk rock band from Syracuse have resurfaced from their 2013 EP I Have Lost All Desire For Feeling, releasing an infectious album that will have you jumping from all four walls.

Unless you're already hiding in your bunker, you would have heard that South Korean boy group B.A.P will be performing in Sydney and Melbourne next month!

The Bonjah boys are at it again. With a third studio LP release ready to share with the world, a special one-off album launch show in Melbourne and European tour in their midst, the boys are showing no signs of slowing down.

the AU is proud to premiere the new music video from Sydney based rockers Bonez. The track, "Foxy Lady", is a cover of legendary rock n roller Jimi Hendrix classic track and is taken from Bonez debut EP On The Pig's Back Vol. 1 - the first in a series of three EPs planned for release this year. The video was shot and edited by Johnathan Devoy, best known as the front man for heavy rock bands Jerk/Ink/Melody Black and more. The video also features the pole dancing prowess of Miss Summer Blazin' and was shot onsite at Oxford Art Factory. Enjoy the clip here:
