The band hit the stage in mid-2009, delivering powerful and dynamic live performances. Their popularity soared, with local attention rapidly amounting to national support with each show. Within a year, Northlane were a common name, demanded across the nation due to their reputation as one of the tightest bands; they are known for their ‘take no prisoners’ attitude when it comes to buckling down and working hard with a DIY attitude.
In early 2010, Northlane released their debut six-track EP, titled “Hollow Existenceâ€, which they co-produced in a friend’s garage studio. Their debut full length album Entitled “Discoveriesâ€, which was labelled by Kill Your Stereo as “Australian album of the year†coincided with their signing to We Are Unified and was released to much anticipation on 11-11-11, straight off the back of a 24 date regional headline tour.
