Black Tide may be the most explosive thing to happen to music since hard rock and heavy metal transformed the face of popular culture in the mid 80's. They not only embrace the charisma, character and unwavering attitude of those who shredded before them, but they do so in a manner that would make the virtuosos that inspired them proud.

The results are a renegade metallic assault that America hasn't encountered since Metallica killed 'em all in '83. Black Tide is not only bringing music back from the dead on their debut album Light From Above, but they are returning the power to metal.

At the ripe ages of 15-20, Gabriel, Alex, Zakk and Steven are ushering in one hell of a coming of age for heavy metal. The meltdown is long overdue:

My Filthy Riot... Presents... ASLEEP IN THE PARK

Venue:Annandale Hotel
Date:'March 21-22'

Sleeping never sounded so good..

Get your blood pumping and your feet jumping as Melbourne's own hyperactive indie rockers, Asleep in the Park, journey over the border and up to Sydney for the celebrated My Filthy Riot Festival. Packing into the Annandale Hotel will be 51 bands strutting their stuff on 3 stages in a weekend of musical mischief and mayhem not to be missed.

With the festival running from March 21-22, Asleep in the Park are set to rock, roll and raise the roof on Sat March 21. Proudly boasting a line-up packed with local and interstate talent, My Filthy Riot, in only its second year, is quickly becoming renowned for showcasing the stars of tomorrow, today!

With better dress sense than Johnny Cash but fewer suspended sentences, Asleep in the Park are a mischievous musical collective whose trademark rock riffs and high-energy harmonies guarantee audiences night after night of scorching live performances and fun-filled shows. Deliciously impish in attitude and appearance, Asleep in the Park have an infectious and esoteric sound that has led to them being aptly described as the bastard lovechild of The Sex Pistols and The B52s.

Following extensive tours of Europe, last year saw Asleep in the Park travel to the US to record with famed LA-based producer Rick Parker (Dandy Warhols, B.R.M.C, the Von Bondies). The irreverent foursome, now hard at work back in Australia, will be releasing both an EP and album, from these recordings, later this year.

So don't miss this opportunity to see Asleep in the Park in action. Head down to the Annandale on March 21 for a feet-tapping, arm-waving, smile-inducing rock-a-thon as they pull out all stops, crank up the volume and bounce across the stage as only Asleep in the Park can.

The Getaway Plan

Booking:Tickets on sale 9am, Friday 6 March
After five years of touring and one year after the release of their breakthrough album 'Other Voices, Other Rooms', Melbourne quartet The Getaway Plan have decided to call it quits.

The announcement comes after a successful 2008 for the band, which concluded with a national spot on the Big Day Out circuit. In addition, 2008 saw the band gain two hit singles ('Where The City Meets The Sea' and 'Shadows'), three nationally sold-out headline tours and a plethora of praise from media and fans alike.

As part of the band's official statement to fans and media, they said, "There comes a point in everyone's lives where they must sit back and assess if everything is working the way it should be. We have come to a decision that The Getaway Plan will no longer continue to make music together. This is in no way the end of our careers as musicians. Music is and always will be the biggest part of our lives." The full statement can be read at the band's MySpace (myspace.com/thegetawayplan) or the Boomtown Records website (boomtownrecords.com.au).

Supported by Channel [V], The Getaway Plan will play one last run of East Coast dates - playing to limited capacity audiences in Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne. Joining them on the road will be close friends, The Amity Affliction and Elora Danan.

Matthew Wright, Clint Splattering, Dave Anderson and Aaron Barnett have vowed to continue to create music in various forms and each has new projects in the works. Stay tuned for more details on their respective musical ventures.

Limp Bizkit is BACK

The original line-up of Fred Durst, Wes Borland, Sam Rivers, John Otto, and DJ Lethal are back from an eight year hiatus to bring their world back to ours. Fred Durst and Wes Borland said in a joint statement:

"We decided we were more disgusted and bored with the state of heavy popular music than we were with each other. Regardless of where our separate paths have taken us, we recognize there is a powerful and unique energy with this particular group of people we have not found anywhere else. This is why Limp Bizkit is back."

The guys will kick off a world tour in the Spring on the overseas festival circuit with headline shows sprinkled in throughout Eastern Europe and Europe, selected dates include, in late May, Russia, Ukraine, and the Baltic countries where Limp Bizkit has never played before despite huge demand, along with major festivals like Rock Am Ring and Rock Im Park in Germany, more dates to be announced shortly. A new album, which would be the original group's first full-length effort since 2000, is also planned.

There's not much that hasn't been said about this band and their perennially great songs, great sounds and great shows. If you haven't seen them on the back of their latest release 'Dilettantes' - then make sure you do - this will be your last chance to catch You Am I headlining before they take off on a European tour later this year.

While the Geelong juggernaut the 60's influenced Garage band the Frowning Clowns wlll kick off the night and open proceedings with what will no doubt be a blistering set.

Kirsty Lee Akers

Kirsty Lee Akers has debuted at #4 on the ARIA Australian Artists Country Albums chart (week ending 17 January 2009) with her much anticipated second album, 'Better Days'. Only platinum selling CDs from Kasey Chambers & Shane Nicholson and Keith Urban along with the popular CMAA Winners album sold more copies.

'Better Days' also debuted at #7 on the Australian Independent Albums Chart (which features all musical genres) and #7 on the ARIA Country Albums chart. The album was nominated by Take 40 Australia as one of last week's most anticipated releases alongside new albums from the likes All American Rejects, Franz Ferdinand, Bruce Springsteen, Lily Allen and Jamie Foxx.

Kirsty launched the album with a sold out show at the recent Tamworth Country Music Festival with dozens of eager fans having to be turned away at the door after failing to snap up tickets earlier in the week.

The album's first single 'Knocked Up' is creating a buzz at radio and the hilarious, one take video currently sits at #8 on the Country Music Channel's video request chart.

Melbourne audiences will have an opportunity to re-discover Michael Nyman s cinematic music masterpieces when he performs one Melbourne concert only with his 11-piece band on Tuesday 28 July, returning to the Arts Centre stage for the first time in seven years.

As one of Britain's most innovative and acclaimed composers, Michael Nyman's work encompasses operas and string quartets, film soundtracks and concertos. His music systematically straddles generic boundaries, mobilising classical sounds within crisp, well-paced contemporary rhythms, splicing the tonalities of British baroque with those of present-day rock and pop.

Although he's far too modest to allow the description 'Renaissance Man', his restless creativity and multi-faceted art has made him one of the most fascinating and influential cultural identities of our times.

His cinematographic collaborations — a mind-boggling 75 scores in total — have propelled him to global fame. In 1993 the music he composed for Jane Campion s The Piano sold over three million copies.

Other notable collaborations on film include Peter Greenaway, (including The Draughtsman s Contract and The Cook, The Thief, His Wife and Her Lover), Neil Jordan (The End of the Affair), Michael Winterbottom (including Wonderland), Laurence Dunmore (The Libertine), Andrew Niccol (Gattaca) and most recently James Marsh s Academy Award winning documentary, Man On Wire about the spectacular tight-rope crossing between the World Trade Centre s Twin Towers in 1974.

Originally assembled in 1976, the Michael Nyman Band has been the laboratory in which Nyman has built a compositional style around strong melodies and precise ensemble playing.

This concert will be an unmissable event for music and film lovers alike. The Michael Nyman Band will also be performing at The Sydney Opera House on Sunday 26 July.
