Byron Bay metalcore behemoths In Hearts Wake dropped rager ‘Hellbringer (ft. Jamie Hails of Polaris)’ in late May. An anthem about the power, positivity and connection found in heavy music, ‘Hellbringer’ was inspired in part by extremists picketing their North American shows, telling their fans they were “going to hell,” despite the fact there was […]

We’ve seen the country’s worst bushfires, we’ve seen – and are still seeing – a global pandemic that has effectively shut down […]

Last month, they released ‘Why Do You Ask?’, the second single from their forthcoming album Monoliths.
