Deafheaven Announce Australian Headline Shows – June 2016
Dynamic, assertive, powerful and poised, San Francisco’s DEAFHEAVEN have announced a run of anticipated Australian club shows for June, complementing a coveted slot on Sydney’s 2016 VividLIVE program.

FILTER To Release New Album ‘CRAZY EYES’ -April 2016
Reconstruction requires deconstruction. The institutions must be razed in order to clear space for the future to flourish. You tear down the old and build up the new. FILTER founder, singer, guitarist, and producer Richard Patrick knows this dance well. It’s what established the group as a multiplatinum industrial alternative luminary, and it catalyzed their seventh full-length album, Crazy Eyes [Wind-up Records / Caroline Australia] to be released on 8th April, 2016.
