Here I am, staring at a screen in the dark, contemplating the future. As you may be aware, Dekkers is leaving The Aussie Invasion, DK Promotions and Hard Rock Radio Live. "What does that mean?" I hear you ask ... despite having suffered the most minor of issues during the last 2 and a half years we have been broadcasting as The Aussie Invasion team, we have soldiered on, in an attempt to bring what we consider THE best independent and unsigned hard rock & metal artists from around the world to a largely mainstream metal listening audience. And personally I believe we have been successful in that. Will TAI & DK Promotions continue? HELL YES!!
On that note, here's the featured artists:



Black Wings (Ferrara, Italy)

Etched In Red (San Diego, California)
Paradox - Dylate (2007)

Dungeon (AU)
Caught Somewhere In Time - Rising Power (2003)

New Revelation - New Revelation (2007)
Locomotive

I'm not going to get all soppy and sentimental, but I AM going to say this ....
Dekk, the times we've had have fukkn RAWKED, and I feel like I'm losing family. You are my best mate and always will be - despite the massive distance you've got a pad here anytime. All the best brother, I'm gonna miss you.
To the rest of you - thank you all for the support, whether tuning in directly or via the podcasts.

See you all next week
Stay MENTAL
