Down and Out

**🎤 Darkside Music Presents: FRESH BLOOD – Sydney Edition**  
Presented in collaboration with Yours & Owls + B.A.D Management

**📍 The Lansdowne Hotel – Saturday 15 November 2025**  
💔 + EMO NIGHT Afterparty powered by Last Words

Fresh talent. Fresh sounds. Fresh Blood.

**FRESH BLOOD** is a new quarterly event series celebrating the best in upcoming **metal,  
alternative, and pop punk** — platforming both emerging and established artists while providing  
a creative space for the wider scene. Each edition takes on a new format and city, keeping  
things fresh and ever-evolving.

This first run spotlights a powerful lineup of **all-upcoming artists:**

**🔥 TOTALBUZZKILL (Headline)** — First Nations-fronted metalcore from the Northern  
Rivers/Lismore region, blending crushing heaviness with raw emotional intensity. Already a  
band to watch, their live show is a storm of chaos and catharsis.

**⚡ DOWN AND OUT (Main Support)** — Adelaide’s rising pop punk powerhouse, fresh off the  
release of new track Guilty As Hell and notable collabs with Kellin Quinn (Sleeping With Sirens)  
and Emmy Mack (RedHook).

**🌑 BRIDGE LEFT TO BURN (Local Opener)** — Female-fronted Sydney metalcore bringing  
raw emotion and ferocity to set the night ablaze.

But Fresh Blood is more than music. Sponsored by **alternative clothing brands Journeys  
Apparel & True North Collective**, and appearances by local tattoo artists adding to the culture.

**And when the lights go down...**  
The night continues with the E**MO NIGHT Afterparty** — a throwback hosted by Last Words,  
spinning anthems from MCR, Paramore, Pierce The Veil & more until late!
