This December, 90’s oz rock legends, DEF FX hit Australia’s west coast for the first time since 1996 to kick off the closing week for legendary live music venue, Badlands Bar.

DEF FX were Australia’s trailblazers of electronica in the best era of rock where everyone moshed and danced without smart devices in their hands.

DEF FX’s enigmatic front woman, rock goddess, witch and bestselling author, FIONA HORNE says:

“I was lucky to live in WA for two years, and now living overseas I cannot wait to return to the magic of the Wild West and bring DEF FX with me! We will TURN IT UP AND PLAY IT LOUD and play your original faves to kick off the closing celebration week for the legendary venue that will always be BADLANDS BAR in our rockin’ hearts!”

The show will feature special guest, female fronted local bands in support of Australian Women in Music:

MAYATRIX & THE PSYCHICS and UNICORN

DEF FX’s return to WA also marks the limited release of a collectible vinyl ‘best of’ by DEF FX. The eleven-track album is called: COLLECT VOL 1 and features Def FX classics, like Surfers of the Mind, Masses Like Asses and Kill The Real Girls. It will be available at the show.

Full details - https://www.facebook.com/events/1296104815121803

BOLT GUN // DARK SONIC PURVEYORS // 'THE TOWER' LP LAUNCH

Boorloo experimental metal band BOLT GUN return with their third full-length album, 'The Tower'. Since their first release in 2014, this local four-piece have continued to push the boundaries of heavy music, adopting a semi-improvised style that combines elements of black metal, post-metal, noise + dark ambient.

'The Tower' is inspired by the literary works of Brian Evenson, Franz Kafka + Shirley Jackson + explores themes of isolation, extinction, absurdity + nihilism. Written throughout 2020 to 2022, the album expands on band’s interest in the dynamic possibilities of using ambient music within extreme metal.

The expansive tracks pull listeners into tornadoes of drone, noise + saxophone which then explode into more post-metal/black metal sounds. The music on 'The Tower' is heavily influenced by second wave black metal, experimental heavy bands such as Locrian + Swans in addition to the work of Colin Stetson + Bohren & der Club of Gore.

Join them as they play 'The Tower' live for the first time at Badlands Bar on Friday, November 3 w/ special guests Halo of Teeth, Nervous and Never Again.
