The Underground Stage
“YNG Martyr’s short set tonight is packed full of protein, rich and bassy and right up to your chin. Beefy and bouncy, it rattles the teeth and kicks straight to the gut – a determined leg behind it with serious intent.” Gallery Learn More Facebook | Instagram
“Most artists expand outwards, they broadcast, you end up buried under a wave. flowerkid’s songs have the opposite effect – you’re invited in, welcomed, loved. The songs are as big and expansive as any, but the effect is very, very different. Extraordinary, in all the good ways.” Gallery Learn More Facebook | Instagram
“Yen Strange’s goth pop rattles around the place tonight like a crow in the rafters, a lost animal searching for a home. Strange, but familiar.” Gallery Learn More Facebook | Instagram
“Pirra open tonight’s inaugural southern hemisphere shindig under the legendary School Night flag, planting a set of St.Etienne levels of irresistable beat amid soaring song. If your shoulders aren’t twitching and your ankles aren’t itchy after this then buddy, you’re struggling, you really are.” Gallery Learn More Facebook | Instagram
“C.O.F.F.I.N rage at the dying of the night, fearsome and fulsome, meaty and mental. Few bands have the muscle or the mass to pull it off – C.O.F.F.I.N have both, in bloody spades.” Gallery Learn More Facebook | Instagram
“No-one needs me to tell you that Amyl & The Sniffers are God’s own tits. The only thing I’ll emphasise is that The Sniffers are an absolute *beast* of a band, and that while Amy Taylor is the star, that band fully shreds. No damn wonder she – and we – look so bloody delighted.” […]
“I’ve been shooting Straight Arrows shows for damn near a decade now and I’m plum running out of words to explain how deep their quality runs. So, one again for the record – one of the finest bands to ever grace a Sydney stage.” Gallery Learn More Facebook | Instagram
“Pist Idiots are the anti-stars, the dark matter that binds the universe together. Zero interest in trappings of fame, just howling songs that cut deep. If you know, you know – based on tonight’s crowd, they are *feeling* it.” Gallery Learn More Facebook | Instagram
“Gee Tee shoot straight to the veins, short and sharp and a shock to the system. It comes off almost naive in its simplicity – but if you think that, then you’re the mark. This is as sharp as a switchblade cutting the money right out of your pocket.” Gallery Learn More Bandcamp | Instagram
