Aussie indie-folk songstress Olivia Coggan has released her stunning new single "Fault Line", and she talked some Sense about making an album with her father, getting mentored by Kasey Chambers, and much more.

Australian industrial death metal maniacs THE BERZERKER have been resurrected to bring their warp-speed savagery to NECROSONIC in Brisbane and FROTH & FURY in Adelaide. Mastermind Luke Kenny talked some Sense about why the masks aren't returning, and what the future looks like for the fastest band in Australia.

Buckle up! Ahead of the next installment of SLUGFEST - "SLUGFEST 2: ELECTRIC BOOGALOO" - Brisbane bruisers WAR BEAR will be bringing the heat to Greaser Bar alongside a massive lineup of talent, so it seemed like the perfect time to discuss the practicalities of onstage overalls with the lungs of WAR BEAR, Ravi.

Blending extreme metal with Latin American culture and cartel violence since 1989, BRUJERIA aren't for the faint of heart (that was a very real decapitated head on the cover of their debut album "Matando Güeros"), so what better band to be joining the mighty CARCASS for an Australian tour? Vocalist El Sangron talked some SENSE about their first visits to our shores, and why they won't be joining CARCASS in New Zealand.

Melbourne mathcore loons FIVE STAR PRISON CELL have been resurrected by the necromancers at NECROSONIC FESTIVAL, and will be bringing their hyperactive chaos to Brisbane on Saturday the 22nd of August. Drummer Marc and guitarist Mark talked some Sense about the possibility of new noise...

Whatever you do in life, try to live a story worth telling. That approach has worked out pretty well for Kira Roessler, who went from touring with one of the most influential punk bands of all time to a long career as a dialogue editor in Hollywood, whose credits include "Mad Max: Fury Road", "Project Hail Mary" and more. With the release of her latest solo album, the appropriately named "Enigma", Kira reflected on the challenges of holding her own on the road as a young woman in a van full of dudes, and shares some insight into the defensive capabilities of Emmy awards.

No, the math isn’t wrong: it’s 30 years since ASH dropped their classic album "1977", with its ear worms like "Girl From Mars" and "Oh Yeah" burrowed deep into the minds of alternative radio listeners. The band are playing it in its entirety for Australian and NZ audiences this September and frontman Tim Wheeler stopped by to talk about what it was like to release "1977" back in 1996.

Spend just five minutes on Facebook and you'll see that a lot of people from older generations aren't coping too well with changing times, but you won't find Pinky Beecroft ranting about "the wokes" anytime soon. Best known as the frontman for raunch-n-rollers MACHINE GUN FELLATIO, he might write a lot of songs "from a position of grumpiness" these days, but as he tells Sense, if you're not evolving with the times, you might be the problem.

Melbourne punk legends THE MEANIES have done a 7" split with Queensland's certified loose units DAD FIGHT, and announced a run of interstate shows. Geez, they're good to us! We got Link on the line to talk some Sense, and find out why Spain’s loss is our gain!

Swiss hardcore bruisers PALEFACE SWISS are set to return to Australia with COUNTERPARTS and FOX LAKE, so it seemed like a great time to get Marc "Zelli" Zellweger going about mandatory military service, a fan's battle with schizophrenia, and the simple joy of upsetting homophobes.

It's 2026. A.I. slop is everywhere, and concert tickets feel like extortion, so it's a breath of fresh air to see Aussie heavyweights SUNK LOTO using real artists, and charging less for a ticket than you'd pay for a shirt! We sat down with Jay to find out why you can see SUNK for only $60 this August!

DESTRUCTION OF THE HEALER have just soared over the "sophomore slump" with second album "A Universe Bereaved", and as they prepare to take the stage at the Trapped Under Ice Festival in Canberra on the 24th, they took the time to talk some Sense...

Aussie guitar wizard and serene human PLINI has unveiled his staggering new album An Unnameable Desire, featuring some of the heaviest riffs he's ever written, and he's about to tour them across Australia and New Zealand! He talked some SENSE about the band’s stage traditions, working with Tosin Abasi, and whether or not PLINI could beat ANIMALS AS LEADERS in a fight (don’t act like you weren’t dying to know!)

The very first lyrics on LEAKER's debut album "HAPPYHOUR" are "something's wrong", and it sets the tone perfectly. Taking the crushing weight of sludge and noise rock and blending it with the harrowing emotion of WILL HAVEN, "HAPPYHOUR" is a harrowing trip into the abyss. Playing at PFR in Brisbane with SUPER DEATH and GUDGEON on Friday the 17th of July, and Tomcat on the 25th, it seemed like a perfect time to get to know LEAKER.
