Brissie homegrown metalcore crew Headwreck have pushed their limits even further with their explosive new single ‘Raindrops‘. Within the first 30 seconds, this track offers plenty of spunk and unveils the boys’ new partnership with indie label EMPIRE.

“The lyrics explore the feeling of not being able to be rid of someone who negatively impacts your life, but are still delivered in a fun way, true to the Attitude Adjustment style.”

– Headwreck

Their new label partnership marks EMPIRE’s first nu-metal/heavy act on the roster with Headwreck proclaiming:

From the first time meeting, it was clear they genuinely understand our vision, who we are and where we want to go. They’ve built something special by empowering artists to stay true to themselves, and that’s exactly the kind of team we want behind us. We’re very excited for this next chapter. We can guarantee it won’t be boring ;)”

Headwreck is one of those instinctive decisions—you hear it and just know. There’s a rawness and intensity to what they’re doing that feels both fresh and necessary right now. They’ve got the songs, the identity, and the ambition to break on a global level. We’re fired up to help share their vision with the world.”

– Peter Kim, A&R Director at EMPIRE

We’ve been watching Headwreck evolve over the years since the debut of ‘Freefall‘ in 2021, when they first emerged from Brisbane’s local scene. They were Australia’s most excitable metalcore act then, and in 2026 there is nothing getting in the way of the band’s world domination.
