Fuck yes!!! Australia has some amazing bands, I know like 30 or so, But am finding more and more over time.
Personal favourites would have to be Lightless & Psycroptic.
rusty74 on
Over the last year or so I've been getting into the Aussie releases a lot more than the overseas stuff, the more I dig the more I have found, I cannot go past Misery as my favourite Aussie metal band.
Nater90 on
Yeah I'm trying to get more myself, Misery are pretty solid! Check out The Amenta - Flesh Is Heir
rusty74 on
The Amenta are really good, ive got to get their releases, i witnessed their last gig ever in Sydney...their vocalist is one intense dude.
Nater90 on
Lucky bastard!! I'd love to see them, The vocals and drumming are brilliant, I asked Dave Haley last year if there is a chance of another tour he said no at this stage.
Vertigo on
Sensational collection mate! Especially those Misery's original CDs, and Armoured Angel's ones, and Manticore!
BTW, where is the digipak cover of AA's Stigmartyr?
rusty74 on
Cheers mate, yeah those Misery CDs are gems, because I keep my collection in sleeves due to having small space etc I only have the discs and the booklets etc, as long as I have those I'm happy. I would love to get my hands on Manticore's second full length, but it is extremely hard to find.
meaningless on
great collection, indeed
rusty74 on
mates mate, i hope to collect more Aussie stuff in coming years.
SexDrinksMetal on
Good collection.... Don't see any Sadistik Exekution anywhere though :\
rusty74 on
cheers, you are spot on about Sadistik Exekution, i really should have their cd's...something to work on.
oldmate on
Some really nice stuff.. please tell me you have added blood duster to this collection :)
I think there are some really cool new Thrash bands coming from Australia currently also. SO its nice to see Australia still producing metal acts!
rusty74 on
mate, i have lots to add to this collection including early Blood Duster stuff, i think the Aussie scene right now is nearly as strong as the early to mid 90's, there are heaps of great thrash, death, and black metal bands im finding out about, great times.
oldmate on
I think your right. If I was 18 to 25 I would be love being a metal head in Australia right now. (what are some of the good new death bands you like.. I need to sus some out)
Cause I grew up in the 90's it will always be a special time for me
rusty74 on
maybe check these ones out, some are not new bands, but one's that are busy in the scene at the moment that im personally listening alot to.

Great to see some Allegiance in there. (you didnt list them)
Im trying to get some old Allegiance tapes from a mate at the moment.
rusty74 on
thanks heaps for picking that up, fixed it - now listed, that's one of the best thrash albums i have, still play it today. i used to have their very first demo tape, i remember Hot Metal back in the day use to have a demo page with addresses of Aussie bands.
vikingdantheman on
No worries. Had to stick up for W.A. haha.
Yeah still a great listen.
Would love to get hold of some of the demos or limited editions.
yeah i remember that page in Hot Metal now that you say it.
