Today's Listen - THE ACACIA STRAIN: Continent - 2008 First Press 2x Vinyl LP

Who would have known that this first press would become such a gem in the collection. I got this on release as a Birthday Present way back when, and forever thankfull that i did!

I was fortunate enough to see them live on the Continent release cycle (To about 50 people in Adelaide at the OG iconic former Venue “The Underground” with The Red Shore)

This album still goes incredibly hard and is definitely my Favourite in their back catelogue along with Wormwood.

Today's Listen - BLEEDING THROUGH:
The Truth - Limited Edition via The Renegade Collective, 2xLP Red & Black Splatter

Bleeding Through are arguably one of greatest and the most influential bands of the early 00s Metalcore Era, and earlier this year my band Abandon All Hope was lucky enough to play our re-union show after 14 years away from the scene with them in support of their 20th anniversary of this record.

In my opinion this is one of the best albums (and my personal favourite) in their back catelogue along with “This is Love, This is Murderous”

Today’s Listen - ATRÆ BILIS: Apexapien - Limited Crush Cloudy Orange vinyl pressing (2021)

I was highly pleased to find this gem in a discount bin of a local record store that was shutting down!

Sørrøwstate, Dreameater, Seek Misery and Lumens will be playing TIA Live in Adelaide on Friday, September 4th 2026 - Mark it down in your diaries because it’s going to be a HEAVY night!

SA up-and-comers SØRRØWSTATE have been gaining a following with their unique brand of chaotic metalcore and are finally bringing it to us live with their Debut show! The 5-piece will be opening up a night of brutal proportions!

Joining them will be local nu-metalcore mainstays DREAMEATER, and after relentless touring of Australia throughout 2026 and fresh off a run of shows with international giants FILTH (USA) and KANINE (FRA) the flag bearers of the Adelaide Deathcore scene, SEEK MISERY!

If that isn’t enough to satisfy your need for riffs and breakdowns, originally advertised as a mystery headliner surprise, LUMENS will be finishing off the night in style with their brand of Modern Metalcore.
