New Music

Here’s a new Brissy band for you to be getting around this week – The Bear Hunt released their debut album TBH (To Be Honest) late last year and off that record, some great riffs and rock melodies sprung forward. “Tropical” is just one of the great cuts from TBH and today, we’re premiering the single’s official music video!…

Troye Sivan is one of those artists about who there can’t really be much more praised or unearthed. Living in an age of social media, Sivan is possibly one of the perfect examples of the ways in which young musicians can harness the opportunities at hand now with the various platforms available, in forming and cultivating a brand and…

US four-piece Poliça just dropped their latest single “Lately” ahead of their the release of their third album, due in March. The track features the band’s token soothing synths, innovative beats and of course incredible vocals from singer Channy Leaneagh. Check out “Lately” here: Poliça‘s third LP United Crushers is due out March 4th. ———- This…

Damn, that opening bass line, right? Followed up with Luke Boerdam‘s vocal and well, you’ve got a great formula for a certified banger of a Violent Soho tune. In the boys’ latest cut from forthcoming album WACO, “Viceroy” is yet another chaotic and gleefully reckless piece of classic Soho goodness. Guitars thrash, drums are pummelled and the vocals are strained gloriously…

Crunchy bass and driving beats lead the new single from Canadian four piece Holy Fuck. The new track “Tom Tom” is a cut off their first album in almost six years, Congrats. Check out the new single here: https://soundcloud.com/holyfuck/02-tom-tom-1 Holy Fuck‘s new album Congrats is due out May 7th! ———- This content has recently been ported from…

Brisbane alt-rockers Aerials today release the official music video for their new track “Separate”!  Taking cues from the likes of early Birds of Tokyo, the more melodic elements of artists including The Getaway Plan and more Aussies of that style, Aerials have produced a tune in “Separate” that is full of catchy hooks, well-delivered riffs and some…

When you put the legends that are Massive Attack  and arguably one of the best bands at the minute, Young Fathers, together, the chances are high that whatever comes of the link up will be fucking cool. Which brings us to their collaboration, “Voodoo In My Blood”. Taken from Massive Attack’s Ritual Spirit EP, the song is charged with vocals by…

It would seem that everything Harts puts his touch on turns to freakin’ gold lately – the guitarist and songwriter simply just goes from strength to strength. Last night, his new single “Peculiar” was premiered on Dom Alessio’s Home and Hosed show in triple j and already, it’s picking up a lot of support online. Well, count us…

Although the idea of combining the best sounds of Foxes and Delta Goodrem might sound just a bit crazy, I swear “Real Life” by Arthur Beatrice justifies it with four and a half minutes of seriously good music. Take the time out to give this a listen, the piano/electronic beat combination is definitely worth your…

New York-based duo The Flux Machine have preceded the release of their upcoming album Louder! with “Love and Affection”, a catchy alt-rock track that hints at punk influences with a vocal styling similar to that of Julian Casablancas of The Strokes. ———- This content has recently been ported from its original home on The AU…

What would happen if Vic Mensa and Skrillex were let loose in Tokyo for 24 hours? Luckily, they documented it all for the official music video for their recent collab, “No Chill”. Directed by Colin Tilley, who was also behind the clip for Kendrick’s “Alright” and Nicki’s “Anaconda”,  “No Chill” has Vic and Skrillex go deep into Tokyo’s underground scene,…

  In our 107th instalment of “Stumbled Upon”, we meet Adelaide’s Mio , chat about cat videos, social paranoia, Arcade Fire and get a sneak peak at their latest release, “Neverland”.

Mossy is the latest unearthed talent to join the I OH YOU roster, the Sydney artist bringing some great psychedelic-infused pop music flair to the family already known for releases by Violent Soho, Montgomery and DMA’s.

Not surprisingly, Flume‘s latest outing in “Never Be Like You” has been riding strong on top of various radio charts throughout Australia and throughout the music blogosphere and rightly so – the producer’s knack for not only linking up with great talent, but also rolling out some tidy arrangements has only continued to strengthen. “Never…

You may remember us featuring the talented Teischa late last year – the year old out of Perth had a voice that made us sit up and look to the west again for some heaps good vocals. Well, Teischa’s gone and hooked up with St. Albion (headed up by Sydney producer/writer Thomas Honeywill) for the…

Some cool sounds are coming out of Sydney’s Northern Beaches, with Ocean Alley dropping their latest single “Holiday”.

If you were able to catch Bully performing their first Australian shows late last year, chances are you will have been introduced to Melbourne’s Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever at those shows.

For now though, the band have released a new music video for current single “Sleeperhead” to keep us all tantalised and it’s done nothing but bolster the hype swelling…

DMA’s are one of those bands who can do so much without looking like they’ve done much at all. In their lyricism, some brilliant narratives are crafted yet a no bells and whistles/smoke and mirrors approach to their brand of Britpop-licked indie music has made the Sydney group relatable to everyone in some way or…

Adelaide lads, the Grenadiers, are soon to be on the road for another blistering tour of Australian venues next month but before they warm back up for the gigs, they’ve given fans a new slice of heat in new single “Live Fast, Diabetes”.

Man, does this new Gypsy & The Cat tune feel fresh. I remember back a few years ago, the duo was everywhere off the back of Gilgamesh and it also felt like they drowned out every other indie-pop act pounding the pavement for a little while there. Then, Gypsy & The Cat went away. They…

James Blake has just released a new single “Modern Soul” on his BBC 1 Radio show and it’s full of his incredible voice and instantly recognisable piano style. There’s no word of when his highly anticipated third album will come out or if this one’s a cut from it, but it certainly makes us excited…
