BALLPOINT are a band who have been kicking big goals in Tassie over the past few years. With the current line up getting together in early 2004, BALLPOINT has released two EP’s and has a debut album, “Get Loose!” ready to drop. Winners of the 2008 'Best Tasmanian Hardcore/Punk band' award, BALLPOINT sport a sound that steers well away from the onslaught of emo/screamo bands, incorporating the speed and energy of modern punk rock with the riffs and rock moves of classic rock and roll!

Emerging from Hobart in 2001, Stand Defiant are a four-piece punk rock band, whose frenetic blend of punk and melodic hardcore has been battering audiences across the devils island and mainland Australia for four years. Technical, fast, loud and unwilling to be anything but, Stand Defiant have fought fiercely to build the Tasmanian scene and along with Disconnect Records label mates The Scandal and Ballpoint have become a staple of the local punk/hardcore community. 2006 saw Stand Defiant release thier second EP titled Our Own Destruction.
