Like a finely polished sledgehammer to the skull, Melbourne's Advocates combine the ferocity of metallic hardcore with tech metal styling's with straight up pummeling groove. Their debut eight-track mini album 'Mindless' was released on 12 November via UK based label Ghost Music. Originally from NZ, the end of 2013 saw Advocates relocate to Melbourne in Australia and recruit 3 new members. In November 2015, Advocates released "Choke", the first single taken from their upcoming EP.

After the recent release of their 2nd EP 'Affidavit' Perth 5 piece Havoc have established themselves as a must see and hear band in Australia's thriving Heavy scene. With aggressive riffs and crushing breakdowns they stay true to their name, adding huge choruses, melodic leads and a stage presence that takes no prisoners. Since premiering the EP's 1st single 'Captured' on Triple J's Short Fast Loud, the band has been gaining momentum and has no intention of slowing down in 2016.
