Classic quotes from the Australian street press – 7: Brody Dalle
From the review of the new Brody Dalle album, Diploid Love, in yesterday’s MX, the free paper that they hand out at train and bus stations in Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne. Not a music publication although they have a page of album reviews every week and given an estimated readership of 663,000 per day, their reviews are […]
In Words: Velociraptor @ Black Bear Lodge, 24.04.2014
The first rule of writing about Velociraptor is that you have reference how many people play in Velociraptor. The second rule of writing about Velocirpator is that when it comes to live reviews you have to mention what ‘mode’ Velociraptor are playing in for that particular show (i.e. how many of them are in the […]

The Friday Afternoon Playlist, 28.03.2014
The week’s big news, I mean other than Collapse Board somehow being overlooked in the list of the 100 most influential music blogs, was Friday’s surprise announcement that Kate Bush was playing her first live shows since 1979.

Go Violets (RIP) Despite living in the same city and them having been together for three years, I’ve never seen Go Violets live. With the announcement of the band splitting it now looks like I’m not going to get the chance, at least not until the tearful reunion in a few years’ time. Remember them […]

It’s that time of year again, when all those editors that plaster their magazines and websites with adverts and suspiciously sounding advertorials but who can’t afford to pay their contributors, head off for a nice jolly in Austin, Texas. Either that or they get flown there courtesy of major record labels. Just to be on […]

We featured BABYMETAL as a band that the organisers of the Soundwave Festival might think about booking for next year in last week’s playlist and suddenly BABYMETAL are all over Twitter and Facebook. Who said the idea of tastemakers in the Web 2.0 environment was dead and buried? Sky Ferreira – Everything Is Embarrassing It’s […]

So Soundwave came and went and the testosterone levels in Brisbane have returned to normal levels (at least as normal as you can get in Queensland). Doing some late, after-the-event reading-up about the festival, it was interesting to see, especially after last week’s playlist, that a Japanese stage was being rumored this year. This would […]
