Gold Coast rocker PRCHR.'s sophomore album, Album Two: THE PAVEMENT, is a concept album about everyone's favourite wretched hive of scum and villainy: Fortitude Valley. It just so happens that it's our usual stomping grounds. Practically a match made in heaven!

A tight ten track odyssey into the grimy side of Brisbane's nightlife, THE PAVEMENT, serves up plenty of relentless rock riffs and roaring choruses while also letting prchr. explore new directions on his songwriting.

Read all about it in our article.

Gold Coast rocker prchr. returns with his second album, Album Two: THE PAVEMENT, and ups the experimentation while still serving up tasty riffs.

DUNE RATS have already had a very big 2026 supporting UK pop-rocker Yungblud but the big moves just keep on coming. They've recently dropped their new single Sharks, straight from the vaults of the early days. Not only that but they'll be taking all the old EP songs back on the road this March and April for their OLD MATES tour.

Check out the article for everything you need to know about what's coming up for our favourite trio of surf punk pied pipers.

Legless Records is one of Australian music's hidden gems. This DIY indie label is the brainchild of Aaron Mawson and releases records from some of this country's best underground acts. Last November, they took over The Tote for a day full of flowing beers, raucous riffs, and good times with good mates. And (like usual) we were there to cover all the action and get an insider view on what makes Legless so great.

Shelvo ventured down to his spiritual home The Tote to interview as many people as he could at the Legless Records Tote Takeover.
