HIP HOP LEGENDS CELEBRATE 30TH ANNIVERSARY OF 93 'TIL INFINITY
Seminal West Coast hip hop legends Souls Of Mischief celebrate three decades since the release of their highly acclaimed debut album 93 ‘til Infinity with a monumental 30th Anniversary World Tour including a stop off in Australia.
More Tribe Called Quest than NWA, Souls Of Mischief's infectiously positive energy and highly entertaining, multisyllabic wordplay transcend the boundaries of rap, finding their way into surf, skate, snowboard and other alternative subcultures.
Whether you experienced the excitement of rap's golden era in person, or have only recently discovered this game-changing period of popular music, do not miss Souls Of Mischief when they come to Adelaide this December!

JULY 7 – KIRIN J CALLINAN
Referred to as "the enfant terrible of Australia's underground rock music scene", Kirin J Callinan needs no introduction, yet we're giving you one anyway.
This June marks the 10 year anniversary of the album the New York Times described as "the most unpleasant listening experience in recent memory, including Yeezus". To this day, it remains as one of the most vital, visceral & original debut's in Australian music history. We are, of course, referring to Kirin J Callinan's EMBRACISM.
Produced by The Presets Kim Moyes and released via the UK's revered XL Recordings, EMBRACISM announced the arrival of a contradiction; spawning cult classics such as "Landslide", "Love Delay", "WIIW", "Victoria M", "Halo" & its entirely singular title track, giving way to absurdly theatrical, confrontational and at times controversial live shows, and garnering one of the most niche and devoted followings worldwide, launching its underground auteur internationally.
This June also marks the release of Kirin J Callinan's fourth studio solo album; humbly, cheekily, AND arrogantly titled If I Could Sing.
Evidently, he can.
Materialising from the vast Kirin J Catacombs of unreleased material, If I Could Sing promises to be Kirin's most ambitious & assured opus since Bravado, or indeed Embracism. Already, it's yielded the perfect meth-pop-madness of "Young Drunk Driver" the singular & open-hearted, thru-composed balladry of "...in Absolutes", and most recently the pumped-up fist-pumping anthem "Anæmic Adonis".
Kirin will be performing previously never before played live songs from If I Could Sing, plus a swath of Embracism's finest, as well a select cuts from Bravado, Return To Center and more.
Photos from Make Them Suffer are now live on Facebook 🖤
JUNE 9TH @ FATS – KINGSWOOD
After a massive 30 date tour throughout Europe this year, Australian rock band Kingswood are returning home and excited to announce their biggest tour to date.
The ‘Hometowns’ tour will see the band undertake more shows (70 + dates) than ever on record in the history of Australia, specially modifying a coach to sustain the overwhelmingly extensive undertaking from January 2023.
Coinciding with the tour announcement, Kingswood have released their new single ‘Burning Holes’. This is hands down the best writing to come from the Kingswood camp since in recent times and heralds a significant return to form for the critically acclaimed 4-piece.
The new single is the first track from their forthcoming studio album Home; coming out in February 2023. The
new album ‘Home’ is melodically rich in Americana vibes and bluesy rock after being mixed and mastered in
Nashville by revered American engineer Eddie Spear (Zach Bryan, Chris Stapleton, Brandi Carlisle).
THIS SATURDAY – MAKE THEM SUFFER [SOLD OUT]
In 2012, released their debut full-length album, which would mark the beginning of their lore. To celebrate this anniversary, MTS are embarking on an exclusive tour of Australia, where they’ll perform Neverbloom in its entirety.
We're excited to have and join them at Fat Controller THIS SATURDAY.

MAY 26 — MO’JU
