Premieres

Storming out of the gates of 2022, rising garage trio Coolabah Kings have returned today with their second single ‘I’m at a Loss’, another blast of their self-described “scrap-rock” that refuses to skimp on the energy or punch.

A blistering beginning to the year, today SKXI have shared ‘Crystal Meth Superstar’ with us, an unstoppable blast of noise-fuelled hardcore and a wild first taste of what’s to come from their forthcoming album How Does It Feel?

The third and final taste in a winning streak of remixes of their back catalogue, Sunfruits have today teamed up with local songwriter/producer Candy Moore to share a reimagining of ‘Mushroom Kingdom’, a take that transforms the original track’s playful psychedelia into a thumping dancefloor-ready banger.

Off the back of the release of their debut album in October, we got in touch with Laughing Gear to dig into the glitchy and agitated synth-punk that makes up Freak Lemons.

Following the release of their new EP TV is Boring last Friday, local favourites Hearts and Rockets are back again, this time with a fun new clip for the EP’s electric opening track ‘On/Off’.

Back with the third taste of their upcoming EP Standing On Thin Air, indie-rock powerhouse Localles have returned with ‘So Wasted’, a track that’s been in their vaults for some time but finally has emerged as a spirited blast of sharp and contagious garage-rock.

Out everywhere today, Sal Wonder’s debut album Tranquility is an exuberant journey into the kaleidoscopic musical mind of the Melbourne multi-instrumentalist, loaded top to tail with undeniable grooves, joyous hooks and infectious neo-soul charisma.

Back with their first new music since the release of Object Permanence in July 2020, today we’ve been treated to a first look of Hooper Crescent’s new single ‘Best In Town’, a thrilling expansion on the frenetic sounds of their debut album with an equally clever new clip to match.

Back with his first new music since 2019, today we’ve got the pleasure of sharing a first spin of Lafferty Daniel’s new single ‘Smoke Yourself Thin’, a turbo-charged garage-pop blitz that’s haphazard and over-the-top in all the right places.

Combining an 80s synth-laden, instrumental adventure and arcade game video clip, Beyond These Fields’ debut 7″ release, Dragon’s Lair is ready to squeeze every drop of nostalgia you didn’t know you had.

Ahead of its release tomorrow through Endless Recordings, we’ve been lucky enough to cop an early listen to Bad//Dreems frontman Ben Marwe’s debut EP as Wedding Motel, a collection of stark and agitated “sad-disco”, plus share a first look at the uneasy new clip for latest single ‘R.S.L’.

Ahead of its release tomorrow via the newly minted Critter Records, today we’ve got the pleasure of sharing a first spin of Metdog’s new EP Certified Lover Dog, a gloriously zany blitz through their absurd brand of garage-punk.
