heavy music festival

The anonymous Australian heavy project have released their debut single, "Spirit", but there are no names, no band photo and only a handful of clues to work with.

Polaris have released their first new music in three years with 'Without You', a deeply personal song shaped by the death of guitarist Ryan Siew in 2023.

Adelaide progressive metal band Control The Sun have returned with their second single, ‘Pyre', building on the momentum created by their debut release and first live appearance earlier this year.

Sunk Loto have launched the next phase of their comeback with the release of Dead Shadows, the first new music from the Gold Coast alternative metal pioneers since 2024's God Complex, alongside the band's first official music video featuring the group since 2003.

Melbourne metalcore innovators The Gloom In The Corner will open a new chapter of their ever-expanding cinematic universe in 2026, with the release of their third studio album Royal Discordance. The album will arrive on 27 February, through SharpTone Records, and will further cement the band's reputation for storytelling, sonic ambition and conceptual depth.

Melbourne's theatrical metalcore collective The Gloom In The Corner have unleashed their new single Assassination Run, a vicious and cinematic assault that marks the long-awaited return of their notorious demonic figure, Sherlock A. Bones. With a video directed by Sam Kriesel, Assassination Run drags listeners deep back into the band's twisted narrative universe with ferocity, chaos and theatrical precision.
