Live Review & Gallery: Molchat Doma, Buzz Kull Bring Coldwave to Enmore Theatre – Gadigal Land/Sydney, 18.12.25

  • December 23, 2025
  • Jess Hutton
It took only minutes to realise the mistake. Opening for Molchat Doma at the Enmore Theatre, Buzz Kull delivered a darkwave and EBM set stripped of gloss and heavy on momentum, the kind that quietly rewrites your internal gig ledger. When Molchat Doma followed, they scaled their coldwave pulse to theatre size without losing intimacy, transforming the room into something closer to a gothic club night than a concert, all stark lines, strobe-lit movement and immersive atmosphere.

Live Review: Punk Looks Like Loud Women Fest – Eora Land/Sydney, Crowbar 07.12.25

  • December 23, 2025
  • Jess Hutton
Loud Women Fest isn’t interested in permission or polish. Fiercely DIY and unapologetically women-led, it places femme, trans, non-binary and queer-fronted bands at the centre, not as novelty but as correction. Across punk, shoegaze, pub rock and noise, the day never dipped or diluted. With no barricades, no hierarchy and a constant exchange of gear, sweat and solidarity, the festival functioned as both a celebration and a reminder: this is what punk looks like when community comes first.

  • December 14, 2025
  • Deb Pelser
Garbage’s sold-out return to the Sydney Opera House is a reminder of the band’s enduring power, as Shirley Manson and company deliver a set that feels both resolute and deeply human in a city grappling with tragedy.

At Sydney’s Metro Theatre, bar italia turn the mystique of their early years into something bold and theatrical, delivering a blistering set that proves just how far they’ve evolved since their underground days.
