The return of Everett True | 134. Primitive Man

The return of Everett True | 134. Primitive Man

I discovered this one via Neil Kulkarni’s regular dose of savagery over at F.U.N.K. Here’s what he says: ‘Scorn’ from 2012 revealed just what a unique slab of monstrous molten heaviosity this Portland 3-piece can cook up – the split 7/10/12″s that have come since with Xaphan, Hexis, Fister and Hessian have only deepened the […]

My buddies call me Ben. We all can’t WAIT for the new Mumford And Sons album

My buddies call me Ben. We all can’t WAIT for the new Mumford And Sons album

By Neil Kulkarni What kind of music am I into? Well… good music! Proper music, y’know? Not the chart stuff so much.

You know, that the government fabricated the war on drugs (the real one, not the band), that the students coming up seem dumber and […]

EXCLUSIVE! The original of my Vine Coldplay album review

EXCLUSIVE! The original of my Vine Coldplay album review

This came about as a result of late night emailing between myself and my Vine editor Marcus. I suggested, jokingly, that perhaps I could list 10 things I’d Rather Do Than Listen To The New Coldplay album. (Number one: feature in the new Brooke Candy video.) He suggested that I change that to 10 Ways […]

THE TEN GREATEST ALBUMS EVER MADE

Right! I’ve thought long and hard about this, agonised and whittled down to final ten but here, at last, I think I’ve burned down to a list of solid gold excellence.

Stuck in traffic outside a Coldplay concert in Brisbane

The whole affair had taken up 120 seconds. The longest two minutes of my life.
