QR codes and masks were not a feature at my last Forum gig, but they were firmly ingrained in the standard routine as the crowds began to line up on a warm January Wednesday. After sitting empty for months, it was the injection of humans needed to bring music back to live (pun intended). 

It was a night of firsts for a lot of people - a first gig back for fans, a first sit-down gig for many (if not all), and a first sip of Brandy for frontman, Quin Grunden of Melbourne’s indie-surf rock trio, The Grogans.

All in all - emotional, intimate, energetic, filthy with aggressive production and personal, passionate songwriting, ‘Jacobus’ is a privilege to hear.

Good News Everyone are back again with another hit release, this time with their single titled I’m Not Emo (I’m Just Sad). Recently released on October 30th, their new song definitely won’t disappoint with its heavy guitar riffs and punchy drums.

Brisbane locals, We Set Signals, have definitely left an impression after the release of their debut album. Ordo is a concept album, that “…follows a normal guy who predicts the end of the world.” With two EPs under their belt, We Set Signals have shown no signs of stopping!
