The timeless and ageless Screamfeeder have been keeping busy over the last few year, as their place in Brisbane’s music history is recognized and celebrated. 

Another milestone has ticked over for Brisbane indie legends Screamfeeder – it’s now 25 years since their landmark album Rocks On The Soul was released. And to celebrate, they’re releasing it on double vinyl, and of course, going on tour. Because that’s what they do. 

It’s been a long and strange journey from those humble beginnings in Brisbane in 1991, to the revered status that Screamfeeder now enjoys. The scrappy little three-piece has become an iconic symbol of the time in which Australian music came of age, became the soundtrack of a generation, and came to symbolize an unprecedented golden era. 

Rocks On The Soul represents both a high-water mark and an outlier for Screamfeeder – a sonic departure from their previous work, a resounding affirmation of the band’s independent ethos, and a deliberate choice to create new sounds and songs to keep things interesting for themselves and their fans. It’s a classic record, well overdue for reexamination. You can see them play, just like they have for three decades, at a the following venues:
