Song of the day – 184: Coolies
This, my friends, is the shit. The blurb on the back of the promo edition of Coolies’ forthcoming Chapter Music CD Master sums it up: “Master is a collection of the last four years. Raw, lo-fi, annoying, brilliant, monumental, totally necessary”. Add to this the knowledge that Coolies are from South Auckland, are a three-piece, released a four-song seven-inch 10 years ago and one other album six years ago, play punk rock like kill rock stars like to play punk rock, and make Erase Errata look like the full-on wusses they never were, and…
