February is shaping up to be a pretty good month. I mean, Of Mice & Men’s album dropped (well it was almost February), I Killed TheProm Queen’s is just around the corner, same with the newIssuesalbum, we can almost taste Soundwave and now, Wolf Creek 2 is going to be out amongst it all!

It didn’t take long forBiffy Clyro to sell out theirSoundwave Sidewaves and for pretty good reason - even after almost 20 years in the industry, these guys are sick!

Australian metalcore dudes I Killed The Prom Queen have only recently been announced on the Soundwave line-up and we can’t wait to see them tear up the stage! We caught up with the band’s vocalist Jamie Hope and put all of hisSoundwave 2014 picks onto one sweet Spotify playlist for you guys! Enjoy!

Surely by now you’ve all had a chance to check out all the Sidewaves that have been announced and hopefully these clashes aren’t as bad as what we’re going to experience on the actual day. I guess time will tell, eh? These ones are our picks (and yes, we probably will be running all over Sydney and Melbourne all week trying to catch our favourite songs at each!). Click on each of the tour posters for Spotify playlists of each gig!

Thanks to our friends atSoundwave Festival, you can now stream in it’s entiretyI Killed The Prom Queen’s new albumBeloved!

Friday night brought us the 3rd Soundwave Announcement and even with only a handful of bands on there, they are still pretty killer additions!

Have a listen to our Soundwave 2014 playlist below and if you haven’t got tickets, then the time has definitely come to invest because you will be missing out on an awesome day.

Arin Ilejay from Avenged Sevenfold had a chat with MetalHammer TV about his favourite things about the current stage shows and what the future holds for the band!

“It’s a great thing looking at the past and it’s a great thing dreaming for our future!”

Paolo Gregoletto and Corey Beaulieu of Trivium had a chat with The Rave TV before a show in Wisconsin about working with Dave Draiman on their latest album ‘Vengeance Falls’ and a couple of things about touring! Check it out. Definitely can’t wait to see these guys at Soundwave!

French metal guys Gojirahad a chat to Vanyaland about how their music stands out, and their concerns with the environment. We can’t wait to see these guys atSoundwave and hopefully get a chat ourselves!
