News : Download a free compilation of 17 of Australia’s best hardcore bands

By on April 9, 2014

And we’re not talking about that whole modern radio-friendly hardcore stuff either. Sydney-based label Art of Catharsis have released a free compilation showcasing some of the noisiest, most intense or straight out crazy music that this fine country has to offer.

As well as some brilliant tracks from bands like Jxcklxz, ACHE, Fat Guy Wears Mystic Wolf Shirt and In Trenches, there’s also new stuff from Idylls and Fvck Mountain on there, which are insanely good tracks.

Distortion and Dissonance joins Stargazing Under Southern Skies and Drone from the Underside of the Earth (the former ambient, post- and shoegaze, the latter drone, sludge an doom) in a series of compilations that simply prove At As Catharsis know their stuff.

All three releases are up over on Bandcamp. Check them out, discover some gems.
