Following the release of ‘Masquerade’ last week, a rousing indie-rock gem packed with striking emotion and dizzying highs, we had the members of Wilderglow interview each other to make sure the quartet weren’t hiding behind any masks of their own.
‘Masquerade’ but not masquerading –
Track by Track:
Love Glove x SERF – Split EP
Polish post-hardcore outfit Love Glove have teamed up with Melbourne’s own post-punk madcap SERF to release a split EP, and we caught up with them to break down what became their uniquely dreary portrait of the current state of global affairs.
They Made Me Do It –
Talking Influences with RACKETT
Off the back of the release of ‘Oxytoxic’ earlier this week, we caught up with future-punk prime mover RACKETT to find out what inspired their latest blast of eccentric electronica and its vibrant new clip.
Aubergine, ‘Lonely Peak’, and the new jazz underground
Following the release of ‘Lonely Peak’ last month, a thrilling single that takes us on a spiritual excursion through jazz, neo-soul and psychedelia, we got in touch with Oliver Hughes, leader of Brisbane’s Aubergine, to find out about the group’s rise and what’s to come next.
Life’s Good, well mostly –
A Chat With The Rollercanes
Off the back of the release of ‘Life’s Good’, the new feel-good/feel-bad garage-rock belter from The Rollercanes, we had the pleasure of picking the brain of frontman Daniel Wright to take a look at the inner goings-on of the band.
Video Premiere:
Abbey Rose – He
Dripping with soul, Melbourne jazz-pop artist Abbey Rose’s ‘He’ is a romantic snapshot of long-distance love, best enjoyed with a whisky in hand, sinking into the plush velvet cushions of a down-lit lounge bar.
Big Brekkie –
A Chat between Eggy, Crepes and Baked Beans
Ahead of the Brunswick Music Feastival tomorrow – a show which will see a spread of Melbourne’s tastiest bands teaming up for what they’re describing as a “six-course serving of aural degustation” – we jumped in on a chat between Crepes, Eggy and Baked Beans, in hope of finding out what’s set to go down.
Video Premiere:
El Tee – Keep Walking
Back with her first music video of the year, Californian-Melbournian artist El Tee returns with ‘Keep Walking’, a striking foray into earnest pop that holds a strong focus on honesty and moving forward.
Premiere:
YARA – Man Hater
Ahead of its official release this Sunday to coincide with International Women’s Day, we are beyond thrilled to premiere ‘Man Hater’, the phenomenal debut single from neo-soul powerhouse YARA.
Premiere:
Hearts and Rockets x Zigzag Split 7″
Ahead of their joint show at Brunswick Music Festival, we’ve thrilled to be sharing two blasts of lively post-punk goodness from local sweethearts Hearts and Rockets and Zig Zag, as part of an exclusive 7” single put out by the good people at Psychic Hysteria and Roolette Records.
Track by Track:
Boats – Demos
From terrifying encounters with the sublime to moments of introspection, Boats’ new EP Demos is a thought-provoking body of work that pushes the boundaries of conventional songwriting to transport us somewhere else completely.
Premiere:
Jackson Reid Briggs & The Heaters –
Hammered
After teasing us over the last six months with a string of ruthless punk anthems, Jackson Reid Briggs & The Heaters have finally released their fourth LP Hammered, a thunderous collection of raw pub punk.
