I am VERY MUCH not a live album person, I usually can't listen to them at all. So when I run across one I really like, that's unusual. And that's the case with this. This is 'Live at the Duke of Enmore', a new tape from Sydney's DIAL UP MODEM and I dig the hell outta this. Some rough, raunchy, catchy, awesome punk bangers here.

#ThursDeath this week is killer new debut EP 'Sequencing Hellish Cataclysm' by Sydney's MORDANT ETCH. Been listening to a lot of this one, some really great tracks of cavernous, dynamic, kinda grindy death.

Killer new self-titled EP by Sydney's BIG MODERN. Great guitar tone & lyrics, dynamics, it's tight, minimal sometimes.. there's some cool surprises on this one and I'm really digging it. And it's on Bandcamp AND Qobuz, which is cool - links below for both.

#NowPlaying this new one 'A Single Flower' by Sydney, Australia's WE LOST THE SEA as I know @HailsandAles and @wendigo dug it. Took a couple times for me, had to be in the mood - but it's some great instrumental rock/metal, light, airy bits, ambient, psych, and such. Post-metal? I dunno, man. Try it in your ear holes. FFO Pelican maybe.

Over this last year, Burial Chamber have definitely become one of my favorite metal bands. Still can't believe I missed this last year when it came out. I posted about this record earlier this year. But this is now an ultimate 'anytime metal' kind of record for me. Great for the car, too. Just the most solid, catchy, dynamic and tightest stuff you've ever heard. Something in that Australian water, man.
