Night Lovell | Northcote Theatre

Each artist carved out their moment, stacking energy on top of energy until Night Lovell closed the night with a performance that felt both heavy and cinematic. No matter where you stood in the venue, you could feel the pulse of the crowd, the low-end shaking the floor, and the collective rush of everyone locked into the same moment.

The Devil Wears Prada “Flowers” Album Review

“Maybe happiness is just what you get when you stop trying to be happy.”

That line captures both My Paradise and the heart of Flowers. It is an album about letting go and finding peace in imperfection, about learning to breathe within the weight of it all.

Evanescence | PICA Melbourne

As the lights came up and people began to leave, something lingered in the air. A warmth that was hard to describe. Seeing Evanescence in a venue like PICA felt almost sacred, a reminder of why music stays with us long after the final note fades. It bridges generations, connects strangers, and fills a room with something that words can never fully capture.

James Blunt | Rod Laver Arena

What could have been a simple anniversary show became something far more personal. James Blunt’s performance at Rod Laver Arena was a reminder that honest music never loses its power to bring people together.

I See Stars | The Crowbar Review

Even with a jam packed setlist, we got more of an insight into the beginning of I See Stars, with how they first formed when Devin was just 11 years old and how money was not why they did this but for following their dreams and continuing to do what they love.

HEAVENSGATE “A HEART IS A HEAVY BURDEN” EP Review

You can hear the hunger, the refinement, and the confidence of a band that’s evolved fast and with purpose. After touring with some of the biggest names in heavy music and sharpening their sound along the way, this EP feels like the statement they’ve been building toward.

Bloom “The Light We Chase” Album Review

‘The Light We Chase’ is beyond question the group's most vulnerable and emotionally charged album to date. Across these 11 tracks we don't just get a peak behind the curtain, we get tangled up and immersed in it.

IC3PEAK | 170 RUSSELL

It warms me that even though the world outside, surrounding us and impeding on all my peers, in a tiny basement room like this, some strings and softly spoken words can be a respite. It’s safe to say that “Coming Home” has been on repeat in my earphones ever since that night.

Royel Otis | Margaret Court Arena

Royel Maddell and Otis Pavlovic, who make up the duo, are joined on stage by drummer Tim Commandeur, whose stage presence is incredible, expressive, energetic, and constantly engaging the crowd. Keyboardist Tim Ayre fills out the four-piece lineup, which boldly performs without a bassist.

Bullet For My Valentine | John Cain Arena

Walking out of John Cain Arena, it really hit me how special the night was. The Poison shaped an entire generation of heavy music fans, and hearing it played in full twenty years later felt like a celebration of everything Bullet For My Valentine have built.

Imminence | The Forum

What sets Imminence apart is that they’re not just a Metalcore band with a violin thrown in. The violin is the heart of their sound, the storm at the centre of the chaos.

Eddie Current Supression Ring | Fed Square

A gig that felt like a definitive re-debut for a classic Melbourne band who have been sorely missed, and appear to have lost nothing of what brought them their former glory.

Wunderhorse | The Forum

For a crowd of mostly 20-somethings who had been waiting almost a year, Wunderhorse rewarded every ounce of anticipation. They capture both the loneliness and the hope of youth, and make you feel less alone in the process.

The Wombats | Festival Hall

Tight, confident and consistently hilarious, The Wombats once again proved why they remain one of indie-pop’s most beloved live acts: masters of turning music, comedy and chaos into an unforgettable night.
