AC/DC @ QSAC, Brisbane, 12.11.2015: Is it OK to Like AC/DC?
Rock or Bust We be a guitar band We play across the land Shootin’ out tonight Gonna keep you up alright I’ll wager that almost every review you read of one of these Australian AC/DC shows will be written by a male reviewer. Chances are that they were also probably born in the 1970s and […]
Watch: Charli XCX – The F Word and Me
Collapse Board favourite, Charli XCX has made a documentary for BBC3 about feminism. Even though it only really scrapes the surface and is more of a tour diary with some interviews included as opposed to solely being an in-depth assessment/analysis of being a woman in the music industry in 2015, you should watch it.

Jessica Hopper’s BIGSOUND Keynote Speech, Ten Weeks After
Ten weeks ago I sat in a darkened auditorium, with several hundred other people, trying not to cry. I can’t remember the last time a complete stranger talking to me made me cry in public but at a guess I would say it was probably at a time when I was needing help to get […]
An Antidote to Boredom 3
By Alice Rezende So much good music, so little time! While my mates have been allegedly busy catching up with their favourite podcasts on their commutes to work, I’ve been busy (“busy”) at home vacuuming, upgrading my laptop, feeding cats, and listening to crazy great tracks that have come out over the last couple of […]
