King Parrot is a chaotic Australian grindcore/thrash metal crew that’s been terrorizing eardrums since forming in Melbourne around 2010. Known for their unhinged live shows and a sense of humor as abrasive as their riffs, the band—fronted by wildman vocalist Matt “Youngy” Young—blends breakneck punk energy, sludgey grooves, and lyrics that roast everything from Aussie pub culture to modern absurdity. They’ve dropped filth-encrusted albums like *Dead Set* (2015) and *Ugly Produce* (2020), sharing stages with metal icons like Down and Carcass while cementing their reputation as beer-soaked chaos merchants. With recent releases like *Holed Up in the Lair* (2023), they’ve kept their DIY spirit alive, sounding like a possum raiding your trash bin at 3 a.m.—loud, scrappy, and unapologetically Aussie.
