Shepparton Airplane (Naarm/Melbourne) are known for their frenetic blend of jagged melody, pithy punk rock discourse and screaming feedback. The band was formed in the mid-2010s, initially making waves with their energetic and raw approach to punk rock music. Their debut album, Shepparton Airplane (2016), immediately captured the attention of Naarm/Melbourne local music lovers with its post-punk sensibilities. The album was characterized by catchy hooks, driving beats, and fuzzy guitars, with a strong immediacy that resonates through each track.

This week's PBS Feature Album is the self-titled debut album from Milly Strange. 

Blending raw lyrical honesty with vivid imagery and a dynamic alt-rock sound, Milly Strange captures the tension between vulnerability and strength as she moves through pain toward renewal. The eight-track release is a cathartic exploration of grief, inner conflict, and personal transformation, tracing the emotional terrain of heartbreak, old friendships, and versions of the self left behind.
