Lee Adcock’s Response to Everett True’s Response To The Flaming Lips – Why Can’t We Be Fwends?
I had a good intro here. A fucking good one, too. But then it vanished. So fuck it. The title says it all, anyway. ET asked, and so I answered: 1. Because, quite frankly, everyone’s still catching up to the Bastards of Fate. 2. Because their Stone Roses cover album [link] actually DID trump the […]
Back when Brisbane still had a culture of protest | Prehistoric
By Tiarney Miekus Thirteen hot nights in a row The cops drive past and they move slow A million people staying low With mangoes ripe, who needs to grow? I don’t want it let down My own hopes for this town It’s so hard to get around Lots of cars but not much sound In town […]
So you think most music critics are failed musicians? Go fuck yourself
There was a comment on one of my Facebook threads the other day that angered me immensely. (It led to an immediate de-Friending…uh, like that’s going to hurt.) You are a critic and not a musician. Now, I ain’t denying that perhaps I could have misinterpreted the fellow’s intentions, typing such a sentence. He was […]
Primus – Primus & The Chocolate Factory With the Fungi Ensemble (ATO Records/ [PIAS] Australia)
A few weeks back, a plastic jar of gobstoppers arrived at the record store with all the usual promo parcels.

Spot the difference: NME’s review of Taylor Swift’s ‘1989’ by Matthew Horton Rolling Stone’s review of Taylor Swift’s ‘1989’ by […]
The return of Everett True | 66. Technicolor Hearts
Hello, I’m writing because Everette True did a feature on my old band Agent Ribbons a few years back. I’m not sure how to get in touch with him but I wanted to see if he or anyone there would be interested in premiering or featuring a music video/diy video art piece for my new […]

The return of Everett True | 65. No Jaws
I keep telling folk bribery will work. I have no idea why people don’t listen. Failing that, try flattery. Make sure it’s sincere, though. Cue a message left on Twitter*. Mr. Thackray may tear us apart. But perception of a man who percepts so well is recognition enough. This new Song of the Day sounds […]
