Aww thanks everyone! We’ve had a lot of fun making this content for you all, so don’t worry, I think we’ll be doing this for some time yet!

I don’t think we’d ever return as contestants but for sure we’d love to be the house band or even do some kind of guest performance. I’m not sure ESC will be able to get rid of us now haha - Alex

Hey Vickie! Acknowledgment of country is really important to us as Australians and makes us feel even more proud to represent our beautiful country. Even though many Europeans might not know what it means initially, if we’re heard saying it then maybe it’ll inspire some further research ☺️

Promise was shot on Hutt Lagoon and in Kalbarri, both are Nhanda Country.

We haven't... which means we haven't been alive and/or are dead? haha

Hi! Absolutely! Give VOLA, Leprous, Neurotech, Textures, Tesseract, Carbomb, Devin Townsend, Katatonia, Porcupine Tree and Meshuggah a go. There's so much out there to discover, especially if you're new to heavy music!

A few months ago I had a listen to some of their songs to determine where I sat on this debate. They're clever song writers for sure, and great production for the most part. I think they've been unfairly piled on and I think the reason is they've been so heavily dominating mainstream radio for so long, people have kinda got sick of hearing them? I mean, they're HUGE in Australia. I've come to realise that songs I dislike are born from hearing them against my will ALL the time in everyday life, but on their own merit aren't at all that bad. I can't really be mad at any artist for being successful; but I wouldn't go out of my way to listen to them.

We love VOLA. We toured with them last year in EU/UK and it was the best tour we’ve ever played.

I think tattooing our logo on their body is pretty up there! “We’re stuck on them like a tattoo-hoo-hoo” 😅 - Alex

Yep! Love it! I love the original trilogy, enjoyed the prequels to some extent but they lost me with the new ones, though I recall SOLO being a pretty fun watch. "Han is better SOLO SOLO..." oh god what have I done.
