Now, everyone knows we're a little bit keen on Blood Command, especially since our very own Nikki Brumen joined the band and moved all the way to Norway basically forever. And with their album, Praise Armageddonism, coming out on July 1st, we just had to call up Nikki to have a bit of a chat!

We've been onto DREGG for quite a while now, and the fellas are finally taking their innovative music and performances across Australia for their first ever headline tour! It's hard to describe DREGG's sound, but if you think of hardcore/metal/rap, you're almost there. 

Ebony caught up with vocalist Chris Mackertich to chat about how COVID messed up their plans once signing to Epitaph Records, how their art is all about self-expression, and how context is super important.

Merry Christmas everyone, we managed to call up Karnivool's Ian Kenny for a chat! If you missed The Decade of Sound Awake Livestream event earlier this year, don't stress because you can now own your own Blu-ray copy. And if you need more Karnivool in your life, make sure you go listen to their new track 'All It Takes'. And if you still need more? Well, this interview is for you then.

When Boston Manor surprise dropped their EP DESPERATE TIMES DESPERATE PLEASURES, oh man, who wasn't excited! Am I right? It comes about a year and a half after their album GLUE and is moody and moshy and just a great present as we emerge into the world on what is hopefully the other side of COVID-19.

Now, it took me a little while to call up frontman Henry Cox because of their American tour schedule, but we managed to squeeze in some time in between shows for a quick catch up!

Following the success of their first outing into horror movie territory, Ice Nine Kills are back for a second serving of The Silver Scream and this time, all bets are off according to frontman/visionary Spencer Charnas who joined Browny, a fellow horror nutter, to take a deep dive into the conception and orchestration of their follow up release, the backstory in the Ice Nine Kills Universe and their wonderful world of horrorcore.

Where does one even start with this piece? There is so much to cover in such a short amount of space, yet Jordan Fish and Lee Malia from Bring Me The Horizon had so much to share on upon the release of their latest masterpiece POST HUMAN: SURVIVAL HORROR. As the Sheffield band were waking up, we here in Australia had been thrashing the new record all day, so when the time came for Paul 'Browny' Brown's interview with the lads, there was plenty of ground to cover. Take a listen to the chat now!

If you haven't been following Amy Shark's rise to fame because you think she's just another pop act made for radio, you need to give yourself an uppercut... actually, give yourself two! Amy's story is not only impressively inspiring, but once you dig deep into her music career and the bands/musicians who inspired it, you'll find you have A LOT more in common with her than you think.
