They’re usually down at your local pub, belting out the tracks your favourite bands used to play decades ago to a usually slightly older crowd who want to get loose on some cheap drinks close to home. And these tribute acts can either do it […]

THE LIVING END ‘Wunderbar’

The Living End are firmly ingrained as one of our country’s best live acts – heck, I’ve seen them 21 times and they never disappoint.

[LIVE REVIEW] King Parrot + Supports, Belgrave, 16th September 2016

King Parrot + Swidgen + Wolfpack Sooki Lounge, Belgrave 16th September, 2016 Review and pictures by: Kiel Egging It’s fascinating how a short tour in cities often left off a thrash band’s touring map can be the catalyst to return to a venue you haven’t frequented in more than a decade.  But that’s exactly how Melbourne thrash kings King Parrot roll; they […]
