you should LISTEN to

Kitchen Witch – ‘Glitch’

A trip-hop beat sets the tone for Kitchen Witch’s narrative of political injustice and climate change on new single ‘Glitch’. A sudden dose of Flyleaf’s fierceness is administered as the line ‘the snake has uncoiled’ is uttered before the four-piece returns to a dreamy soundscape Chris Walla would be enthralled by. This sonic swing between soft and severe continues, building in intensity before the final chorus gives way and leaves listeners poisoned with rock awe.

Along for the ride is Massachusetts’ alternative post-metalcore royalty Cave In, as well as Denmark’s hardcore experi-metal-ists LLNN.

Five years is a long time to wait for our favourite sludge-core Canadian punks, Cancer Bats, to return and tear up our stages. Thankfully, the quartet have answered our high-frequency echolocation calls! The Bats will shred their Adelaide fans to pieces at Jive in support of their seventh album, Psychic Jailbreak.
