Australasia (album)

Guitarist Trevor de Brauw has noted that because of budget restrictions, the Australasia sessions had to be rushed. The studio was also under construction during recording and had a few impediments.^[3] Despite this, critical reception has been largely positive.

The track "Drought" was used in the 2009 war film The Messenger.^[4]^[5]
