GRETA STANLEY

ANNOUNCES NEW ALBUM

‘IF I GET IN, WHERE WOULD I GO’?

Greta Stanley has been evolving consistently into one of our most dynamic and engaging artists; in a career that has grown to encompass two studio albums, two EPs, and a catalogue of impressive collaborations and performances that have made her an unforgettable talent, Greta has continued to show listeners that with each release and performance, there is still more to know about her.

The charisma and chemistry that forms her music has produced two impactful singles already for 2024 in ‘Life Of The Party’ and ‘When You Call’ and today, Greta officially announces the next step – the arrival of her new record, If I Get In, Where Would I Go? – set for release on September 27.

As Greta’s third studio album, If I Get In… is an intensely personal collection of music that sees the artist navigate observations on mental health, physical and emotional ailments; as well as the road she has travelled in trying to overcome and find hope in the dark times. 

Delivered with the honesty and heart-led approach that has defined her material to date, If I Get In… is in some ways, Greta Stanley presented in her most vulnerable form. But in others, it is music that portrays her at a new strength.

“I hope the listeners feel like they can relate, feel less isolated, and maybe feel empowered to find the love they deserve, and to do the hard stuff and get help in a way that suits them. I hope it leaves people feeling hopeful, because despite all the shitty stuff in the external world, and my own internal one, my beautiful friends, family, animals and listeners give me hope every day, and it does get better, I promise x”

Greta Stanley’s music has reflected a beautiful songwriting style, as well as a bold sonic approach; a fusion of indie-pop, folk, electronica and rock matches Greta’s presence as a vocalist and writer – naturally confident and vibrant. 

With a catalogue that has garnered over 30 million streams across platforms and a collaboration history that has born tracks including ‘Stay In Your Lane’ with Bronson Diamond (approximately 11 million streams and growing); ‘The Come Down’ with Robbie Miller (2.8 million Spotify streams) and ‘Bottle It Up’ with Riley Pearce (6.2 million Spotify streams), Greta Stanley has gone from strength to strength in recent years.

A versatile and striking performer, Greta has toured extensively on her own and supporting the likes of Amy Shark, Tash Sultana, The Rubens and more; while becoming a festival favourite, performing at a range of events including Yours and Owls Festival, Groovin The Moo, BIGSOUND and more.

To celebrate the release of If I Get In, Where Would I Go?, Greta will be performing a special hometown show in Cairns on Friday 27 September.

THE COMFORT RETURN

WITH ELECTRIC NEW SINGLE

“THE WEIGHT OF THE WORLD”

OUT NOW

Australian alternative rock outfit The Comfort make a thrilling return with their existential new single “The Weight of the World”. Stream HERE and watch the official music video HERE.

All at once atmospheric, intimate, and undeniably electric, “The Weight of the World” sees The Comfort team up with renowned producer Callan Orr (Dream On Dreamer) for a heaven-made match that breathes new life into the project as their first new music in two years.

Lyrically, the new single delves into feeling the weight of existence, truth-seeking and trying to find answers in the seemingly meaningless. “We have this newfound abundance of information but the same lack of power to affect the awful things we are witnessing, while we watch the people with the power to act do nothing but succumb to greed,” says vocalist and guitarist Liam Holmes. “The disconnect from reality is profound. We could have such a positive impact on the world, yet it feels like we are just destroying the earth and its inhabitants. I find it hard to engage in the harmful games society plays, I fear it’s becoming too late to change course.”

Before finding a home within The Comfort’s discography, “The Weight of the World” was initially intended for a heavier side project. “We decided that this just had to be a Comfort song, despite its clearly different style to what we usually write,” reveals vocalist and bassist Dominic Harper. “I guess we found that once you add the vocals, it becomes The Comfort. There are a few other heavy songs similar to this floating around that might one day make it out of the vault, but this one felt like it couldn’t wait.”

With a loyal fanbase extending far beyond Australian shores – a fan from Texas once flew to Brisbane just to see them play, and Chicago sits contently in their top streaming cities – it’s no surprise the trio, comprised of Liam Holmes, Dominic Harper, and Marcus Parente, have stacked up over 7million streams and airplay from major stations triple j, Triple M, BBC Radio 1 and Kerrang! Radio. The band have also built an impressive live resume, supporting artists they grew up listening to like Saosin, Thrice, The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, Say Anything, and Circa Survive. Aside from these achievements, The Comfort say “our most cherished moments as a band have been the connections we have made with fans from all over the world.”

2024 promises to deliver more new music from The Comfort as they continue to push the boundaries of their sound.

51st AVENUE MAKE A

STATEMENT WITH

RIFF-HEAVY NEW SINGLE

‘MOMENTS’

Sydney’s 51st Avenue are back and sounding heavier than ever, with their huge new track ‘Moments’ – a track that delves into new territory thematically and sonically, and is the first to feature new bandmate Anthony Carollo on bass duties.

Starting things off with a moody synth and drum machine section, vocalist Alynnis Zizza’s vocals build tension perfectly in the verse before the track erupts in the first chorus; with huge modern-metalcore riffage pushing the song to the next level. During the writing process for ‘Moments’, Zizza took more of a lighthearted approach and decided to have fun with the track lyrically – describing a one night stand, a topic that strays from the bands often more introspective lyricism.

“I’ve been waiting for a track that makes me feel like dancing so when I heard the instrumental of ‘Moments’, I couldn’t help but move. It’s really different to our other tracks so I figured why not lean into that and write about something we haven’t before. It’s also not a very long track at all so naming it ‘Moments’ and writing about a one night stand felt very appropriate and heaps of fun! I’ve also been in my mum era so a step out of that was refreshing.”  ALYNNIS ZIZZA, 51ST AVENUE

‘Moments’ is the first track written with bass player Anthony Carollo, who took on some of the songwriting load during the process. During the songwriting sessions, the band felt they needed to find a moment to really bring the track home – leading to the band’s first ever breakdown.

“This was my first time being involved in more of a formal writing process with some real intent. It was eye opening to see the process behind the scenes of a band I’ve known and admired for so long, and I loved every moment. We approached the song wanting some real signature 51st pop/rnb vibes in the verse and intros, with a melting chorus. The song evolved and we all agreed that the bridge needed to be climactic and something we haven’t done before, and so our first breakdown was born! When I listen back to the finished song it ‘s like the room stops, and I can’t wait for the world to hear what we’ve worked so hard on!” 

ANTHONY CAROLLO, 51ST AVENUE

Artwork by Vanessa (IG: @vanmumi)

51st Avenue have made a name for themselves as a mainstay on the alternative live circuit over the last few years, with opening spots for The Beautiful Monument, Eat Your Heart Out, Hands Like Houses and more. The band have seen constant support from radio and media alike; with features from tastemakers such as  Wall Of Sound, Heavy Mag, Music Feeds and Tone Deaf; and consistent airplay on triple J and triple J Unearthed.

PRAISE

“A full-on, wall of pounding noise melds into a melodic breakdown heralded by the honey-flavored yet biting vocals of Alynnis Zizza, ‘ICU’ is 51st Avenue’s most personal song yet.”
Scenestr

“Remnant”, the latest offering from Sydney punk hopefuls 51st Avenue showcases their potential in spades. It’s all complimented by some glossy guest vocals from the Inertia frontman Julian Latouche too.”

The AU Review

“Sydney trio 51st Avenue embrace their pop influences on new single ‘Find Me’. The follow-up to July’s ‘Mind Your Own’ – described as “dramatic” and “hair raising” by Dave Ruby Howe – ‘Find Me’ is 51st Avenue’s attempt at penning the song of the summer.”

MUSIC FEEDS

“‘Chapters’ continues to build on the foundations of songs like Find Me, Mind Your Own and Remnant, bolstering 51st Avenue’s creation of hard-hitting and exciting music that fuses electronic and pop music together with heavy rock influences.”

Heavy Magazine

“a heart-wrenching exploration of addiction and the toll it takes on loved ones. Teaming up with Julian Latouche of Inertia, the quartet delivers a powerful, emotional track that showcases their ability to blend electronic pop and heavy rock into a hyper-modern sound that is all their own.”

HEARTLINE SHARE

NEW SINGLE “SYNTHETIC”

OFF ‘PINK LEMONADE’ EP

Adelaide alternative metal quartet Heartline share new single Synthetic from upcoming EP ‘Pink Lemonade’, out Friday August 16, and announce their headline launch tour presented by Destroy All Lines.

Their third single from the new EP, Synthetic, thematically draws on the way people interact online and the aggressive nature of it. “It’s about how peoples communication on the internet is so perverted and twisted compared to proper communication,” says vocalist Luke Taylor.

“Every discussion you see becomes a personal hostile fight, we’re losing the ability to be respectful and united in trying to understand one another. I also draw on my personal battle with getting sucked into reading comment sections knowing they’re gonna make me mad and put me in a bleak mood.”

Produced by Sam Trott (Rogue Half) with a mix and master by Nick Sjogren (Thornhill), the bands forthcoming LP ‘Pink Lemonade’ is a digital fusion of pop and metal, weaving in and out of expansive EDM soundscapes and soaring chorus’ before unleashing waves of grinding guitar and bass, showcasing Heartline’s musicality as a unit. The quartet’s latest three releases see the band explore new creative ground, to be heard across the release.

‘Pink Lemonade’ will be celebrated live across the East Coast across two weekends late August. The Pink Lemonade Tour will visit Adelaide’s Rhino Room, The Gaso Upstairs in Melbourne, Jungle Duke Hotel in Wagga Wagga and Volta in Ballarat. Tickets on sale now!

Heartline is Luke Taylor, Nevenko Sarunic, George Carey and Michael Cooper. Since their debut in 2019, Heartline have continuously shown themselves as an exciting and promising act to watch in the Australian alternative music scene. Popular releases Delorean and the two-track drop ‘Somewhere Else [I]’ established a sound that seamlessly combined hard-hitting and complex grooves with soaring melodies and irresistible dance elements, with Delorean landing the band a coveted cover spot on Spotify’s Homegrown & Heavy playlist.

Pairing their fresh sound with a relentless, energetic and captivating live performance, the four-piece have earned a place performing alongside artists to the likes of The Word Alive(US), Holding Absence (UK), Crossfaith (JPN), Paledusk (JPN), Thornhill, Windwakerand more and secured a tour with Dance Gavin Dance (US) late 2023, winning over thousands across Australia.

With their following rapidly growing, Heartline level up with each new release. Synthetic is available and streaming everywhere now. The EP ‘Pink Lemonade’ will be out Friday August 16.

ANNOUNCE

ANGEL KILLER ZERO

AUSTRALIAN TOUR

Enigmatic modern metal monsters Diamond Construct announce their Angel Killer Zero Australian Tour this October, joined by very special guests PROMPTS (JPN) and Deficit. Presented by Destroy All Lines and Greyscale Records, Diamond Construct will be launching their sophomore album live across the country – tickets on sale now via Destroy All Lines.

The tour will celebrate six months of Diamond Construct’s sophomore album ‘Angel Killer Zero’, which saw its release in April via Greyscale Records and Pale Chord. Kicking off on Friday October 11 at Lynotts Lounge in Perth, the tour will make its way through Adelaide at Lion Arts Factory, The Espy in Melbourne, La La Las in Wollongong, Oxford Art Factory in Sydney, Newcastle Hotel in Newcastle and finally the Brightside Outdoors in Brisbane.

“We are so incredibly excited to showcase our new record ‘Angel Killer Zero’ across Australia,” says vocalist Kynan Groundwater. “We’re bringing an amazing tour package to each date that we feel our fans are going to love – Japan’s up and coming Prompts and fellow Aussie band Deficit. Diamond Construct fans should not sleep on tickets for this one – it’s going to be the most special performance by the band to date.”

The long awaited ‘Angel Killer Zero’ LP features lead singles Jynx, Switchblade OST and Hell Inside You, all of which reached the far corners of the alternative music community picking up consistent support from Rage, triple j, Crunchyroll, Spotify, Apple Music, worldwide editorial coverage and video reactors from across the globe. Closing in on a million streams and counting, ‘Angel Killer Zero’ was mixed and mastered by Lance Prenc(Polaris, Alpha Wolf) and stays true to the bands roots while still pushing forward into new sonic ground, experimenting with a full toolbox of glitchy guitars, energetic electronic and trap-inspired grooves and noisey sound design.

From their humble beginnings in Taree, on the Mid North Coast of New South Wales, Australia, Diamond Construct have cemented their foundations with commitment to dreams of something greater. Many laps of Australia alongside such heavy-hitters as Greyscale labelmates Justice For The Damned and Alpha Wolf, international acts Emmure (US), Ten56 (FR), Stray From The Path (US), Bury Tomorrow (US) and Kingdom of Giants (US) as well as a spot on CVLTFEST 2024 have created a base of loyal, frothing fans, recognising that there’s no better place for Diamond Construct than on a big stage, commanding the energy and putting everything into their show from the first note to the last.

Joining Diamond Construct as main support on the Angel Killer Zero Tour is Japan-based metal outfit PROMPTS. Since their formation in 2012, PROMPTS have built strong foundations in Japan, touring with artists to the likes of Kublai Khan, Crystal Lake, The Plot In You, Crossfaith and Stray From The Path as well as playing South East Asia’s longest running music festival Pulp Summer Slam earlier this year with Parkway Drive, The Story So Far, La Dispute and more. PROMPTS kicked off 2024 with a debut Australian tour with The Gloom In The Corner and HEAVENSGATE, and are stoked to be returning this October.

Hailing from Sydney, heavy outfit Deficit join the Angel Killer Zero Tour off the back of a sold out Australian tour with Ocean Sleeper & Lil Lotus (USA) in April. Their abrasive, hard-hitting live show has left audiences in awe, solidifying their reputation as ones to watch, and a band that delivers an unforgettable live experience.

Don’t miss out on a riotous live show, stacked with acts leading the charge for modern metalcore. Tickets on sale now via Destroy All Lines.

FLOWEROVLOVE

SHARES LATEST CUTE BOP

‘BREAKING NEWS’

“‘breaking news’ is about the thought process when you go from a crush to falling in love super uncontrollably fast and you can’t stop it, in combination with the shock of realising ‘whoa this is more than a crush’. I was feeling sad when I wrote it, actually. I wanted to feel something lovey dovey, so I wanted to manifest feelings through a song.” – flowerovlove

Fresh off her hit ‘BOYS’, which SZA proclaimed “fire as hell”, flowerovlove returns with ‘breaking news’ – a shimmering anthem for lovestruck summer nights. Produced by Duck Blackwell (Kylie Minogue, Louis Tomlinson, Icona Pop) and co-written with her close friend Ines Dunn (Maisie Peters, Astrid S), the euphoric track emerged as the singer-songwriter turned to music to express complicated feelings she didn’t want to talk out with the person causing them.

flowerovlove performed ‘breaking news’ live for the first time during her debut Glastonbury set last month. Singling out her performance, Nataal observed: “flowerovlove’s blend of soft pop told tales of unrequited crushes and ‘thinking about boys too much’. The young London artist sent us skipping with ‘hugs and kisses’ and heart hands all around.”

After completing her run of UK festivals, flowerovlove will make her US debut this fall with headline shows at Baby’s All Right in Brooklyn, NY on November 12 and The Moroccan Lounge in Los Angeles on November 14.

A little bit more about flowerovlove…
At just 19 years old, the young London artist has become one-to-watch in both the music and fashion worlds. As a model, she’s walked in Paris Fashion Week and has been the face for brands such as Gucci and Maison Kitsuné. Her independently released debut EP, 2022’s A Mosh Pit In The Clouds, caught the attention of publications like i-D and Nylon as well as BBC Radio 1, who named her Future Artist of the Month. She has amassed nearly 20 million combined global streams with her four singles from the last twelve months – ‘Coffee Shop’, ‘Next Best Exit’, ‘a girl like me’ and ‘BOYS’.

NEW SINGLE “NOT JUST YET”

FROM UPCOMING ALBUM

Tacoma, Washington’s-own Enumclaw shares new single Not Just Yet. The second offering from their forthcoming sophomore album ‘Home in Another Life‘, out August 30th via Run For Cover Records and Cooking Vinyl Australia, Not Just Yet juxtaposes grandiose musicality with a tenderly written and distressed ode to band members Aramis Johnson & Eli Edwards’ Uncle Mike. Recently diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimers, Aramis clamors for more time with Uncle Mike, the man who “taught him everything” and shouts in disbelief over the top of thundering, arena-shaking drums from Ladaniel Gipson.

Alongside the single, Enumclaw have teamed up with frequent collaborator and director John C. Peterson, who also directed the video for lead single Change, for another explosive music video centering on one long zoom out shot.

“This video all started with a painting that Andrew Durgin-Barnes did for Rizzo and Quasi Skateboards,” director John C. Peterson says of the video. “Barnes’ painting screamed a story so I’d always wanted to adapt it to a one-take music video. Once I told Aramis my idea over a year ago, he was always adamant we had to do it. ‘Not Just Yet’ was the perfect song for it. Short and sweet. Loud. We did our best to bring the painting to life and I think we did it justice. It was extremely gratifying to have Barnes there on set and approve of what we were doing. We encountered a million problems in pre-production and the video almost fell through countless times… turns out doing a music video that requires a techno-crane, a city alley, explosives, and children is difficult to pull off.”

Co-produced by Ben Zaidi and Enumclaw, ‘Home in Another Life’ is the natural expansion of the high-octane rock foundation the band built with their widely-praised 2022 debut album ‘Save The Baby’. Across the eleven tracks of ‘Home in Another Life’, vocalist and principle songwriter Aramis Johnson cracks open his chest cavity for quakingly tender songs written and performed to electrify basement shows and reverberate through arenas in equal measure. Aramis and Enumclaw write and perform like a band wrestling with the weight of growing up without looking for pity or to wallow in that baggage, while harnessing the power of reckoning with those changes head-on and kicking the door down for bands just like them in a predominately white indie-rock space. ‘Home In Another Life’ is louder, faster, poignant and achingly resonant, but doesn’t forget how to have fun and enjoy the moment too. ‘Home in Another Life’ brings the world to Tacoma rather than the other way around.

In the time since the release of ‘Save The Baby’, Enumclaw has criss-crossed North America performing across the continent to serve fans in both major markets and small towns that are often overlooked on routed tour runs. Alongside the announcement of ‘Home In Another Life’, the band released a tour documentary recounting their first tour run overseas and expressing an appreciation for the long nights, early mornings and the full scope of life on tour, narrated by Aramis Johnson. Enumclaw is rounded out by guitarist Nathan Cornell, drummer Ladaniel Gipson, bassist (and Aramis’ younger brother) Eli Edwards. Watch “A Working Band Abroad” here.

Enumclaw joined forces with Australia’s own ARIA award-winning duo, Flight Facilities, in May for the infectious single Days Of The Week, which also came paired with a video by John C. Peterson that found placement on ABC’s Rage. Watch here.

Not Just Yet and Change are out now and streaming everywhere. The ‘Home in Another Life’ album will be available Friday August 30 via Run For Cover Records & Cooking Vinyl Australia, pre-orders live now.

MAGDALENA BAY’S

SOPHOMORE ALBUM

IMAGINAL DISK

OUT AUGUST 23

Imaginal Disk, the sophomore album from acclaimed duo Magdalena Bay, is slated for release on August 23 via Mom+Pop Music—pre-save/pre-order it HERE. Additionally, a new song, “Image,” debuts today alongside a video directed by Amanda Kramer—listen HERE and watch HERE.

Close your eyes,” the band says. “Imagine a brand new, better you. Now wait 22 minutes. Now open your eyes. Meet your brand new image! Isn’t it amazing that the meat in our heads can do this?”

Following the “Death & Romance” video, which found True—played by the band’s Mica Tenenbaum—getting an “imaginal disk” upgrade inserted into her forehead, the “Image” video goes back in time to the waiting room where True stood by for her first fitting. Although disk infomercials playing on the televisions initially get True excited, she’s thrown for a loop when the upgraded consciousness she signed up for is different than what she expected.

“Image” follows the initial album offering, “Death & Romance,” which Vulture praised as “kaleidoscopic,” while PAPER commended the duo for another “glassy, sprawling prog-pop odyssey that builds from a tightly wound jam into something seemingly designed to hit the back walls of stadiums.”

Magdalena Bay “Image” Single cover artwork

Aside from last year’s EP, mini mix vol. 3, Imaginal Disk marks Magdalena’s Bay first full-length project since the release of their critically acclaimed debut album, Mercurial World, in 2021. Vulture praised the album as “one of 2021’s best pop statements,” while Pitchfork celebrated the duo’s “magic power” of sounding “like whatever you grew up with, whenever that was,” and PopMatters commended the album for “providing a blueprint for a new generation of electronic pop.”

Magdalena Bay is the Los Angeles by way of Miami duo consisting of Mica Tenenbaum (vocals, producer, songwriter) and Matthew Lewin (producer, songwriter). The two first met at an after-school music program in Miami where they grew up, bonding over shared musical influences and eventually starting a prog rock band Tabula Rasa. That band broke up, but when Tenenbaum and Lewin crossed paths again in college, they reconnected with the goal of making something closer to pop music that blends retro and futuristic elements under the moniker Magdalena Bay. They released a series of EPs leading up to their critically acclaimed debut album Mercurial World in 2021 and went on to sell out their first headlining tour, play numerous festivals around the world— including Coachella in 2023, tour with Charli XCX, Caroline Polachek, Flume and collaborate with Lil Yachty, JIHYO, Blu DeTiger and more.
