5 BANDS WE DIG HIT THE STANDARD FOR /// LIVE AT THE RIOT
The underground independent music scene is currently going through an amazing transformation of late, kinda like a snake shedding its skin and exposing some new flesh, it’s exciting but also scary if not treated with respect.
Over the past few weeks we’ve been sifting through the heap of rad bands that are circulating in our stratosphere of late and due to our need to expose the truly gifted and unknown we’ve come up with the first instalment of LIVE AT THE RIOT, a night of fresh artists that we think people in Sydney need to discover and experience in a decent live setting and we think THE STANDARD is the perfect venue for the occasion.
So join us on Saturday 5th May, come out and celebrate the mighty talents of these amazing bands.

MY SYDNEY RIOT GIG OF THE WEEK – CHICKS WHO LOVE GUNS MOON EATER EP LAUNCH TONIGHT AT THE STANDARD!
One of our most favourite Sydney bands are 5-some CHICKS WHO LOVE GUNS. The last time we saw them play we were all feelin pretty seedy. Anyway in our state of drunkenness we looked up to the stage and figured out that if Kurt Cobain had five boys then these guys would be them.
End of story, just go and see them tonight at The Standard because they are a fully hectic sick band. And you need to eat pizza from Olympic Yeeros on Oxford st after the show and talk about aliens with randoms later.
Shit and the support bands are totally awesome too, The Ottomans (QLD), Sweet Teeth & Doc Holliday Takes The Shotgun.
Rock n’ Roll!

GOONS OF DOOM TO LAUNCH NEW SINGLE IN SYDNEY AT THE STANDARD ON SATURDAY WITH KILLER LINEUP
If you have attended a GOONS OF DOOM show, you have probably experienced either of the following; a massive hangover, a bump to the head or the biggest smile from ear to ear.
The Rattlesnake Cobra is the most fun party song you will hear on all fours, it is also the first single off their third album ‘Revenge of the Goons’ which drops later this year locally and internationally thru Volcom Entertainment.
This Sydney show will be the most important show of the single tour so far so please bring a friend along and get down to a pretty special lineup filled with some of Sydneys most hyped talent right now; THE RUMINATERS, MYLEE GRACE & THE MILKSHAKES, BANG! BANG! ROCK N’ ROLL plus THE BUNGALOWS on dj duties.
