KNIGHT RIDER - Launch

Knight Rider are a heavy metal band built on crushing riffs and killer live energy. Bursting onto the scene with their first-ever release, the band drop a collection of three live studio tracks captured raw and unfiltered — loud, fast, and unapologetic.

Known for their high-intensity performances, Knight Rider thrive on chaos. Their music hits hard and moves fast, driven by in your face guitar and explosive bass and drums. This is metal with classic weight and a modern edge, played with zero restraint.

Knight Rider aren’t interested in playing it safe. Every song is built for impact, every show pushed to maximum volume. Heavy, unpredictable, and fuelled by pure live energy.

Penalty are a Frankston based band, they have their own unique sound while taking influences from Punk, Hard Rock and New Wave. Penalty’s instrumentation generally sticks to guitar, bass, drums and vocals but they are often known to give their live performances a step up by occasionally including a few odd instrument choices such as a fretless bass, a violin bow, a banjo, and keytar.

Inspired by the raw energy of Royal Blood and Måneskin, the angst of Olivia Rodrigo and Paramore, and the theatrical grit of My Chemical Romance, Paper St is a Melbourne based band that delivers a dynamic fusion of heavy riffs, hard hitting hook-driven vocals, and creative groovy drumming. We’re a power trio comprised of Evie Raia (vocals), Zane Banda (guitar) and Noah Angus (drums) that sounds like five—thanks to the use of effects, routing, and multiple amps, our single guitarist fills the mix with bass, rhythm, and lead tones simultaneously. Completely independent, self recorded and produced, our sound spans Hard Rock, Alternative, and Indie. But at its core, Paper St is about a good high-energy performance.
