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.
Track by Track:
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.
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.
Premiere:
Furlong – Hate Girls
Local alt-rockers Furlong are back with their first new music of the year – a grungy track with comes packed with plenty of distortion and an attitude, ‘Hate Girls’ is a celebration of enemies.
Premiere:
Jarrow – Flowerbed/Sauce Song
Today we have the absolute pleasure of premiering new music from garage-pop mastermind Jarrow – two nuggets of unpredictably clever indie-rock with equally addictive clips to match – alongside the announcement that his forthcoming third album Jarrow will be released in May this year.
Premiere:
Grace Snow – Tower of Terror
On her debut solo single, local multi-instrumentalist Grace Snow has defied all expectations and blasted us with a relentless fuzz-pop belter – explosive and chaotic, ‘Tower of Terror’ has us very excited to see where Grace takes this new project next.
