Both the video and the band members themselves are aesthetically pleasing to the ey

Sydney, Australia based outfit The Rumjacks are currently on their debut US tour, and will be stopping by locally at O'Brien's in Allston on 4/13.

Canberra, Australia’s five-piece Hands Like Houses have already played Warped Tour twice, toured with bands like A Day to Remember, worked with Paramore’s producer James Paul Wilsner, and released two albums. Their third, “Dissonants,” is, to be blunt, a masterpiece. It’s heavy, melodic, full of angst, simultaneously galvanizing and introspective, and brilliantly produced by Wilsner. There are a few influences immediately apparent: early 2000s melodic metal bands like Avenged

Based from the land Down Under in Canberra, Aussie rockers Hands Like Houses have just unleashed their sleek new music vid for the song "Colourblind". The song runs the gamut somewhere between hardcore rock and mid tempo rock to give it a highly experimental charge that sets it apart from the other bands out there, and makes it its own animal and beast altogether. I found much to be impressed from these guys even though I'm not a huge fan of their genre, I found these guys to

A two song EP by Australian band Heirlooms, Stepping Stones is a well-produced, energetic, and catchy example of modern pop/punk. In fact, it’s so authentically made that my girlfriend, who grew up on bands like Paramore, Flyleaf, and VersaEmerge, turned her head while I was listening and said “I would’ve LOVED this when I was a kid.” Well, I love this now. I didn’t grow up on postpunk or metalcore, and spent my teenage years more fully immersed in Queen than Killswitch Engag

The track cuts down to the core of olk essence with Benny's explosive vocal dynamic running roughshot throughout the entire duration of the track, and his lightly tuned acoustic guitar melodies leading to a song that is deeply passionate and makes your eyes and ears pop out as to how awesomely talented Benny is.
