“…I’m calling it right now – album of the year contender.” – Wall Of Sound, 10/10
“There are moments of depth and cleverness that will warrant repeat listens and the explosive presence of the band is undeniable. This is the music people create that rattles your heart and then some.” – Hysteria Magazine, 9/10
“On The Death of Me, the band has used their talent to position themselves at the top of the Australian metal hierarchy. Next step: world domination.” – Blunt Magazine
“Yes, the songs on this are very strong, memorable and dynamic, the musicianship is tight and the production is punchy as hell.” – themusic.com.au, 4/5
“In the words of Patrick Batemen from ‘American Psycho’ they have really come into their own and if I may add; in an extremely meticulous, emotional and perfectly executed fashion.” – Forte Magazine, 4/5
“It will be the album that many will look at in the future and reminisce about the impact it had on the Australian Music Industry.” – Insert Review Here, 10/10
“Polaris are a band destined for a long, bright future and The Death Of Me is a clever and dignified step towards the gents becoming one of our most successful exports in the heavy world.” – The Soundtrack
“It’s going to take something special to top this album in 2020.” – HiFi Way: The Pop Chronicles
“Combining technical guitar riffs with deep, heartfelt vocals and soaring melodies, the boys from South Sydney bring their own unique blend to the table and have crafted something truly magnificent.” – Everblack Media

It’s been two years since Polaris released their ARIA-nominated, Top 10 debut, The Mortal Coil which introduced the group to legions of fans around the country and, thanks to an extensive international touring schedule, the world. When it came time to making their new album, The Death Of Me, the Sydney outfit knew they had a tall order on their hands.
Polaris returned to the house in the small South Coast town of Mollymook where they made The Mortal Coil, converting it into a temporary studio. The familiar surrounds acted as something of a refuge after the high-pressure claustrophobia of touring.
Accompanying the band was their front of house sound engineer, Lance Prenc, and long-time friend Scott Simpson (of Melbourne band Alpha Wolf), both of whom co-produced the album with the band.
In the two years since The Mortal Coil, Polaris embarked on three sold-out headlining tours of Australia, as well as supporting Architects and Parkway Drive around the country; five runs throughout Europe (including a series of arena shows supporting Architects and a slew of high-profile summer festival spots); three separate US tours; not to mention performing at the Download Festival and Unify Gathering in Australia. Somewhere in there, the quintet found time to write The Death Of Me.

AMNPLIFY – DB
My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
