| Local Acts
Post em if ya got em. My top 3 atm. | | 1 |  | Quiet Child
Thumper
Adelaide-based grandoise prog/alt rock with a distinct metal edge. They opened for Opeth; should tell y'all something. Think maybe Karnivool mixed with Porcupine Tree, and add in one hell of a vocalist. Recommended tracks: The Cold Halls, Ocean of Silhouettes. | | 2 |  | 4th Wall City
Flight of the Raven
Western Sydney alternative hip-hop duo. Influences from El-P to Rage Against the Machine. Mainly political/cultural based lyricism, with a unique Aussie twist to it. Also sparing alt-metal (Deftones-esque) influences. Recommended tracks: The Raven, Armour | | 3 |  | Between the Devil and the Deep
Paper Spine
What a find. Local Sydney melodic/post-hardcore act. In their own words, Refused/At The Drive-In/Fugazi by way of Defeater and Modern Life Is War. No need for autotune or poppy choruses here, guys. Just searing, in your face emotion. Recommended tracks: Souvenirs, God Hates the New Facebook. | |

04.02.12 | In terms of Brisbane bands, probably Fires of Waco (RIP), Quiet Steps, We Set Sail, Nuclear Summer and Travels. Other Australian bands would be The Smith Street Band, Milhouse, Toy Boats and Let Me Down Jungleman. | Mordecai.

04.02.12 | Yeah, I'd definitely recommend seeing these three bands live if you can. I'll definitely check out some of the others people have mentioned too.
