Hatebreed are about to unleash an album that, although promising to be a typical hardcore offering from the band, is also a monster that promises to expand on the sonic destruction that is Hatebreed even further.

Melbourne rock outfit The Dead Amigos have released their latest single â1 in 5â, an infectiously groove orientated track that details a debaucherous chapter in the life of a rock band that pulls no punches and takes no prisoners.

Killer Be Killedâs first album was IMHO one of the best metal debuts album of all time. Supergroup forays are always a dicey ring to get into especially when it contains four of the finest musicians from all walks of heavy metal diversity come together in the same rehearsal space. The challenge of such massive undertaking can go one of two ways, those being that the sum of all the parts just fail to make an impact or alternatively it is one of the greatest moments in extreme music ...

Some of my earliest and finest musical memories were created by Brisbaneâs Dreamkillers. So much so that my first ever live experience was a show they put on at the infamous Roxy nightclub back when I was at an age when I should have been tucked between the sheets, not drinking in a live music establishment. That was some 30 years ago and to this day I still rate Dreamkillers among my favourite bands â certainly one of the bands who were impressionable on a young, budding ...
