metallica at optus stadium / perth, wa

I had the privilege of witnessing the pure brilliance of Metallica for the very first time at Optus Stadium in Perth, Western Australia, and I'm honestly still buzzing from it.

BELGRAVIA: Loud, Local, Legendary

Breakdowns, big hooks, and bold riffs. Belgravia are Perth's loudest love letter to pop punk. If you’ve ever wondered what it sounds like when five self-proclaimed losers accidentally write bangers, Belgravia’s your answer. Hailing from Perth and slinging pop punk/easycore with a wink and a wallop, this band’s journey is as chaotic as their riffs, and we're here for it.
