 We’re the therapists pumping through your speakers, delivering just what you need.
Talk to almost any music fan and they can give you a list of bands, songs and even moments of mid-show banter that changed their life. That saved their life. That picked them up off the ground, pushed their chin up to the light, and stood in support behind them. It’s what makes these bands stand out from the rest. Makes them more than just strangers standing in front of you with instruments slung across their shoulders. Keeps them in your life years after they have stopped making music. One of the greatest feelings is hearing that band play that song. As fans, we scream along from the barriers and wear it with pride inked across our skin.

Of Mice & Men, Chelsea Grin & While She Sleeps @ The Factory, Sydney

After drawing in and rocking rather impressive crowds at both their Sydney and Brisbane Soundwave sets,Of Mice & Men’s Sydney sidewave at The Factory Theatre was hyped up to be a sidewave not to miss.  And while I was seeing other bands during most of their set at Soundwave I was absolutely pumped to be seeing their complete set, and I was definitely not let down…

All Time Low, Polar Bear Club & Chunk! No Captain Chunk! @ The Factory, Sydney

Fresh from their appearances at Soundwave Brisbane and Sydney, All Time Low took to the stage at the sold out and packed out Factory Theatre on a rather humid Monday night. Their pop punk music and entertaining if somewhat immature stage banter (but then who doesn’t like a good dick joke) kept the crowd and venue staff entertained for the evening…
