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.
