After consistently promoting their latest single "you & i", DRAINING are now ready to unveil “mourn” - a return to the band’s 2017 shoegaze roots, calling back to their self-titled EP while signalling what’s to come. 

Positioned at the forefront of the emerging nugaze and heavy shoegaze movement, “mourn” showcases heavily down-tuned, distorted guitars and dark, introspective themes. The track carries an almost Bones-esque dark rap atmosphere, blended with grungegaze textures and nu-metal intensity. 

Drawing inspiration from Deftones, Moodring, Glare, Loathe, Fleshwater, Split Chain, Narrow Head, Soul Blind, and more, “mourn” firmly places DRAINING within the nugaze wave - a genre-blurring space where shoegaze collides with hardcore and alt-metal.

Holy Forrest are a Sydney shoegaze band, their sonic emblem: cavernous vocals woven through layers of soaring guitars.

Always Heartspace, their second EP, builds on that sound with songs that feel expansive, textured, and unmistakably theirs.

Tonight, listeners are invited to step inside the world of Always Heartspace.

DRAINING & HOLY FORREST WILL BE JOINED BY TRILLION, B-LEAGUE (ADL) & SUPAHONEY
