Bands & Artists : Stalking Blake
fozcore writes"Stalking Blake is 4 piece punk rock band who started in 2006 and have recently gone through a line-up change. After takin 6 months to regroup and write some new songs, the SB crew are back on the scene playing shows with energy and speed.
THe new SB line up consists of the same old drummer and guitarist (Joel and Foz, respectively), but now also includes Ander on Bass and Luke (also from Hold Your Fire) on guitar. Vox being provided by everyone (except luke)
SB are not one to be pidgeon holed as their songs range in style and content, from serious political topics, to comical situations, from poppy punk, to oi punk, to metal. An SB show will be one of the the most entertaining and surprising gigs you'll see for some time.
If you like high energy punk rock wit catchy chorus, distinctive guitar licks, machine-gun-like drums, then check out Stalking Blake.

Bands & Artists : Havana Allies
havana-allies writes"Someone once said that we sound like the heavy parts of Joy Division
combined with the softer parts of the Sex Pistols. Others have said we
sound like The Undertones, The Pixies, Franz Ferdinand and Kings of
Leon. Have a listen and see what you come up with.
Since starting in late 2004, we have shared a stage with such
great Aussie bands as The Living End, Little Birdy, Sarah McLeod (ex
Superjesus), Dardanelles and The Inches, and international bands Cut
Off Your Hands (NZ) and Sabot (Czech Republic). We also played on the
Lorne Foreshore during the 2005 "Schoolies" celebrations, and have
played legendary venues such as The Tote, Ding Dong Lounge, The Espy
and The Greyhound among many others.
Our latest EP is a three-track disc called "City Lights", which you can get at one of our gigs.
