Alright guys.
So, there’s this little band called UNWRITTEN LAW and they are touring Australia this week for the first time in a good little while (cue 16 year old stomach flips) , but the sweeeetest bit is they are releasing their new album on April 1! No joke!
The album is called SWAN. The first single, Starships and Apocalypse sounds like this:
Now, because the album has been getting a solid flogging over here at Shock HQ and we want you ALL to hear as much as you can before the albums official release, we’ve got 5 passes to give away to these Unwritten Law shows:
THURSDAY MARCH 17 @ CAPITOL, PERTH
SATURDAY MARCH 19 @ HIFI, BRISBANE
SUNDAY MARCH 20 @ COOLY HOTEL, GOLD COAST
FRIDAY MARCH 25 @ FOWLERS, ADELAIDE
SATURDAY MARCH 26 @ ROUNDHOUSE, SYDNEY
(full details here)
All you have to do is chuck us a comment below, with your full name and city. I’ll be picking winners at random but if you’re chosen then you’ll even get to bring a friend! The only catch is you both have to be over 18. Which kinda sucks, but it’s the law n that.
They are being supported on all dates by local faves HEROES FOR HIRE (‘cept Perth..) so it’ll be double the fun!
SWAN looks like this.
You can find it in all good record stores April 1.

I’ve never seen Unwritten Law before…would love to see em in Sydney (as its where Im from!)
My kind of music. Would love to get along to their gig in Adelaide.
Perth Yo!
I would love to see this band live in Adelaide.
Brisbane! saw them at tivoli, all ages gig years ago. Would love to see em again as a grown up!
Fuck yeah
I first listened to Unwritten Law when I was 14 (now 23, sigh!), I was hooked. ‘Seeing Red’ was my favourite song. UL really introduced me to punk rock music. They’re epic and I would love to relive my teenage years this sunday at the Cooly Hotel show!
I mean fuck yeah BRISBANE!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Ready for some automatic satisfaction in Sydney!
Being a student means missing out on all the amazing bands that grace our shores.. Would love the chance to see Unwritten Law @ Cooly Hotel!

MELBOURNE!
I don’t know if there is one for Melbourne in this comp. But I desperately want to go to this show. The only band I continue to listen to since my teenage days. Over 10 years ago California Sky would go on repeat in my room… It still does

Hmmm interesting synthesis of fantasy and SF,
the heavenly and diabolic.
Really keen to head to the Sydney show!
Adelaide.
Really want to go to SYDNEY! Went to LA last year just to watch Scott Russo at Epicenter festival. Unwritten Law are on of my favourite bands. Cailin is one of the first songs I ever learnt on guitar.
Shouting out for Sydney tickets! Would really, really, really, REALLY love to go along to this! Thanks xx
SYDNEY TICKETS PLEASE. I REALLY WANT TO GO BECAUSE THEY WERE THE SOUNDTRACK TO MY TEENAGER LIFE
