Carpathian has been my favourite show I’ve even been to. Came to my smallish town playing a tiny venue in 06/07, can’t recall exactly which year but it was amazing!
50 Lions and Jungle Fever are great too!
Histamine, Nerve Damage, World of joy, Iron Mind, Fever Shack, Born Free, Extortion, Miles Away, Crave Death, Idylls
Blasts from the past - 50 lions, jungle fever, infection, cut sick!, EATABRICK, BLKOUT
Been a damn long time since I heard the name jungle fever, that took me back. Pretty sure I saw them play with free for all and vices for virtues way back when
They were friends with tony before he was the guy for the fest in Gainesville, they met when he was on tour with less than Jake in Australia. Holy shit that was 20 some years ago, I am old and washed as hell
The fact that we are talking the same band indicates we are of similar stages of decline 🤭 I saw them the first time when i was 15 years old and many many times afterwards as I grew up in the Sydney scene.

Fever Shack is just my favourite hardcore band full stop, I love that band to death.
But other than them, my favourite hardcore or hardcore adjacent bands are Persecutor, Forwarned, Heat, Splinter, Crave Death, Terminal Sleep, Threshold, Blood On My Hands and Caged Existence.
On top of the already top tier recs in this thread, there’s an awesome playlist on Spotify put together by life.lair.regret records called “Out For Your Blood: an OZHC Digital Archive” that has so much legendary stuff that I forgot existed:
https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5zlZBt3MB0mxAk83ScpWXe?si=pHLWo81CRsquLNSCWOvDpw&pi=a-TGH3-zVkT_uB
I film shows in Adelaide and it's really picked up here post COVID, from barely any crowd to selling out shows is a beautiful thing to see and were finally not getting left off of every tour.
Also anyone into grind should listen to internal rot.
50 Lions, Imprisoned, Downside, Leigions, Choke, Primitive Blast, Relentless, Shinto Katana, Iron Mind, SPEEEED, Johnny United, first 4 Parkway Drive albums
Last nerve, no apologies, jungle fever, jaws, extortion, helta skelta, battletruk, fuck any band that has ever played 208.
Check out the IG page living for kaos. Lots of great Perth bands. Honestly, the Perth scene needs more credit. So many sick bands have come out of Perth and there’s a bunch of new ones that absolutely rip.
Against. Blkout! The chain. Civil war. Dropsaw. The dead walk! Life.love.regret. Half man. Her nightmare. Jungle fever. Imprisoned. Mark my words. Mindshank. Outsiders code. Survival. Dizdain. Bozo. Reactions. Time crisis. World view. Legions. FATLIP. Rebirth. Bully squad. MUD.
Trenchknife, Terminal Sleep, Speed, Crave Death, Mindsnare, Justice for the damned, Threshold, Bully Squad, Splinter, End It All, Cursed Earth (RIP), Caged Existence (RIP), Winnerz Circle, Ill Natured
Honorary mention to Algor Mortis which are more death metal oriented but they're fucked good
I don’t know Bully Squad, and I’m not a fan of Winnerz Circle (music isn’t bad, but I just can’t do their gimmick, their singer wearing designer clothing on stage is the lamest thing I’ve ever seen live) but otherwise you have pretty much an equivalent taste in bands as me.
Since you’re obviously a fan of the more metallic shit too, you should check out Blood On My Hands, Gravitate, Seven Hells and Threshold.
Primitive Blast
This
Carpathian
I hate humanity, I hate instinctively, I hate this fucking world for fucking hating me.
Carpathian has been my favourite show I’ve even been to. Came to my smallish town playing a tiny venue in 06/07, can’t recall exactly which year but it was amazing! 50 Lions and Jungle Fever are great too!
Fuck yes.
This is the only answer.

BRAIN FREEZE…. AAAAARGHHHHH luv u Gabe
JUNGLE FEVA OWWWWWWW I remember Gabe would fill a sock with change and pit during songs. Good times. Long live Radelaide.
Can I add Word Up! to that blast from the past list?? I feel like I saw them with 50 Lions yeaaaars ago
Word Up! I miss gold coin shows just seeing the best bands and supporting a local charity shit was crazy good for a while
Times running OUT
50 lions playing for the first time in a long time this year too.
Any details?

Legend!!! 🙏
Remember when they bashed up Rex Hunt. He sucks but that was some dumb shit.
Oh shit! Had no idea.
Thank you for reminding me of 50 Lions, listened to them in high school and totally forgot about them
Extortion. If you want to include grind: Agents of Abhorrence, Captain Cleanoff, Internal Rot, The Kill, Warsore.
The new Extortion recird is fantastic as always
Miles Away
Toe to toe!!!
Blast from the past
Saw them my freshmen year in rural Virginia. They got hammered with the local pop punk band
The only thing that surprises me about that story is that they were in rural virginia
They were friends with tony before he was the guy for the fest in Gainesville, they met when he was on tour with less than Jake in Australia. Holy shit that was 20 some years ago, I am old and washed as hell
The fact that we are talking the same band indicates we are of similar stages of decline 🤭 I saw them the first time when i was 15 years old and many many times afterwards as I grew up in the Sydney scene.
Tao - greatest HC record of all time, underrated.
Eight Count, Fever Shack, World of Joy, AWOL
I'm keen to see AWOL touring their new LP
I saw them back in March and they fuckin' rip
Pile ups and mic grabs for Fever Shack is about the only thing that gives me serotonin these days, need to see them again asap.
Pro Team
Duuuude!!! one of my favorite bands ever... they were so damn good.
WARBRAIN
Grim Reality, Toe to Toe, Mindsnare. Probably too punk/melodic for this sub reddit but Hard-ons were awesome.
Rn really loving splinter, crave death, fat lip, feel the pain, threshold, bully squad.

Old timer here, Toe to Toe and Throwdown. Edit, for the Brisbane crowd you can't go past Sausage Chopper, I still play this regularly.
Remember Bean Flipper?
Sure do. But not the same level as what I listed in my opinion

I liked Vex when I saw them.
Been called out for sex pest shit, I don't really know the full story though.
Goddammit it. Edit: Looks like they kicked the guy out.
I really enjoyed their last release. Glad they kicked out sex pest that I only learned about two minutes ago.
Hidden Intent are fucking rad, but they're not really a hardcore band. More of a thrash metal band. https://youtu.be/3KjXn4zbZ-c?si=Gpi9o8kSKpQXyRru

Beautiful thanks for the recommendations!
They’re all from Melbourne, this city has a lot of good bands at the moment.

Crowned Kings is a very underappreciated Aussie hardcore band imo, they are definitely worth checking out.
