From Brisbane band Quandary, another fine (instrumental)  tune. Sadly, Quandary have since disbanded but guitarist Sam Vallen can still be heard with Caligula's Horse - as was drummer Geoff Irish too (until 2015 that is):

 From Adelaide band The Slow Light, formerly instrumental, now stepping ahead to a future with vocals (a fine band either way) - a track from their upcoming new album Liminal:

From Hobart, All India Radio, also with a new album imminent:


Toehider, aka Michael Mills (of Melbourne), and yet another upcoming album...

Turning the clock back to the year 2011 for Brisbane band Caligula's Horse, a year after Sam Vallen and Geoff Irish recorded the one and only album with the band Quandary:
