If you crave music that’s loud, heavy, and full of attitude; then jump into “The Circle Pit” with Savage & Sticks
Every Thursday from 8pm to 10pm, Sean “Savage” and Billy “Sticks” bring you the best hard rock and heavy metal from around the world—whether it’s crushing new releases, underground gems, or legendary anthems that have shaped the genre. From local shredders to international icons, “The Circle Pit” is where the volume never drops.
We’re more than just a playlist—we’re a hub for the hard rock and metal community.
Each week, we spotlight upcoming gigs across Western Australia, making sure local bands and venues get the support they deserve. We also take a trip through the archives, revisiting major moments in rock and metal history and celebrating the birthdays of the legends who keep the spirit alive. Whether you’re in the pit or banging your head at home, this show is your go-to source for everything heavy.
So tune in, rock out and windmill until your neck gives in! You may even be lucky enough to get a request in or hear us interview a guest from a local or touring band. Also, if you are a hard rock or heavy metal artist with original music and want to score some airplay, don’t hesitate to send your tracks through to [email protected]
The Circle Pit was first broadcast on 107.3 HFm on Thursday 27th February 2025.
Policy on requests: The Circle Pit with Savage & Sticks is a speciality genre music program that has a specific music selection produced for presentation each week. The format of the show does not always lend itself to requests but when possible we will try to include the song requested. Please feel free to text your requests to 0485 838 436 and the boys will do their best to fit it in on the night or in the following show next week.
