Good things are great, hey! And Good Things Festival is going to be the absolute greatest way to send out 2019. One of the killer bands on the line up is Dance Gavin Dance, the progressive rock and post-hardcore band we all know and love. It's actually their first time playing an Australian festival since Soundwave carked it back in 2015, and we could not be more excited to have them down here again.

We had a chat to drummer Matt Mingus about their new song 'Blood Wolf' and the uhh ... interestingly weird music video for it, working on album number 10 and the one thing they're giving Aussies before anyone else in the world. Go on, give it a listen!
