Resist

A fierce, articulate final statement from the Australian icons. Jagged guitars and urgent rhythms tackle the climate crisis with both anger and profound grace.

The Oils' final stand is a loud, beautiful, and incredibly pissed-off love letter to a planet in trouble.

A high-stakes blend of righteous anger and cinematic beauty that feels like a final warning.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The explosive, percussive entry of the drums on 'Rising Seas' that signals the band's final stand.
The haunting, melodic bass lines on 'The Barka-Darling River' recorded by the late Bones Hillman.
The way 'Last Frontier' builds into a sprawling, seven-minute epic that serves as a career-closing summary.
