Allay The Sea

Allay The Sea are a Hardcore/Metalcore band brought from the eastern winds of the Newcastle area.
In todays Metal scene it is easy to be labelled as not being original, Allay The Sea's aspirations are to show Australian and International audiences a unique style made by their sound.
A fusion of brutality and melody is the heart of Allay The Sea's unique sound.
2010 will be a big year for Allay The Sea as they are in the process of printing their debut EP "Descent".

The Sailors

Review: The Sunday Age July 24
People have been deriding Melbourne's The Sailors as vulgar, offensive, sexist, racist, homophobic one-trick ponies for years. But they're not. Well they are pretty vulgar, and the lyrics are distasteful, but if you listen to the snarling Cracker in the Niggertonk, the sing-speak of I Wanna be Black, and the almost-sweet refrains of Back in the Closet, it's obvious that The Sailors are challenging prejudices by subverting stereotypes.
