And once again we're selecting 5 Unearthed bands from across Australia to join the bill. To be in the running for this excellent opportunity you need tracks uploaded on the site before Sunday 2nd December 2012 - midnight, and have QLD, SYD, MELB, ADL, or WA selected as your state. Don't worry if your tracks are still pending, we'll listen to everything before we decide. If you already have tracks up on the site you are already in the running.
