Spiderbait @ Princess Theatre, 05.08.2022

Where you come into a band’s existence is everything. Discover a band early on, buy their records when they’re on tiny record labels, see them play small 400 or 500 people venues, before they end up becoming massive stadium bands and festival headliners, and you have bragging rights forever. Even if the band ends up […]

Song of the Day #770 – Violent Soho

Song of the Day #770 – Violent Soho

Last Thursday was a bit of a sad day for the Brisbane music scene. Firstly Collapse Board favourites, The Goon Sax announced that rather than head out to tour with Interpol and then do some shows opening for Pavement, they were instead going to break up. They’ve said there’ll be some final Australian dates before […]

Ahead of the release of their new album, Five Rooms, their End of This Summer photo book, documenting the band in the pre-digital world, and a national tour, we talked to Screamfeeder’s Kellie Lloyd about Brisbane in the 1990s, being in a band for 30 years, playing solo shows and the hunt for missing photos […]

Midnight Oil @ Brisbane Riverstage, 13.04.2022

The end. Well, it’s as good a place to start as anywhere isn’t it? A wet Wednesday night in April at the Riverstage for the Brisbane show of Midnight Oils final tour probably isn’t the ideal send off everyone dreamed of, but that’s La Niña for you. In the UK, Midnight Oil occupy that strange […]

Springtime + McKisko @ Princess Theatre, Brisbane, 25.02.2022

It’s starting to get biblical outside, real Old Testament. Roads are already beginning to close, meaning that a different route from what we’d normally take needs to be taken to get into the city tonight. The rain is already so bad but we forego parking in the underground carpark next to the venue just in […]

Song of the Day #769 – Nice Biscuit

One of these days I will get around to updating my own blog site.  No, I will… It was one of the things I thought might happen with COVID lockdowns and all the extra time I was going to get back by not commuting and with not being able to leave the house. This Is […]

Song of the Day #768 – Dead Man’s Bones

Song of the Day is typically about sharing something new or vaguely recent but today we’re going back to 2009.  You can blame Cat Power, who has covered ‘Pa Pa Power‘ on her new album. As I was listening to her new ‘Covers’ album, I was alternating between her versions and the original versions.  I’d […]

Song of the Day #767: Cat Power

Song of the Day #767: Cat Power

I spend an unhealthy amount of time thinking/mildly obsessing about the lives of famous musicians.  I mean if you’re someone like Paul McCartney or Bob Dylan, do you wake up in the morning and think to yourself, “Fuck me! I’m Paul McCartney, I was in the Beatles, I helped change pop culture and music forever […]
