Perth locals, Make Way For Man, have not disappointed with their latest release, Rites. The 6-track EP explores the ups and downs that life brings, and how best to tackle them.

Drastic Park’s brand new release, Imposter Syndrome, was born entirely out of the current pandemic. Using this time to explore the production side of music, the Melbourne-based trio were able to record, mix, and master their EP from their homes, in isolation. They explore the idea of dual-perspectives, something that has been seen a lot during lockdown.

Brisbane deathcore band, Babirusa, will turn heads with their debut album titled Humanoid. When you hear their music, it’ll be no surprise that they’re named after an animal whose tusks can sometimes grow towards their skulls, piercing their brain and killing them.

This month brings the debut release from Melbourne-based punk band Good News Everyone. Their EP, titled Identity, is best described as a unique fusion of metal and punk rock.

Figures’ debut album, ‘Operating In Unsafe Mode,’ delves into themes of “...dehumanisation, isolation, oppression and mass media manipulation.” Having previously released two EPs and one single, the five-piece from Melbourne, Victoria, are no strangers to exploring political issues.
