Coolabah Kings present their very first output as a band ‘Spineless’, a raucous narrative driven blast of garage-punk. We’re stoked to be premiering the track today alongside a chat with the band to get to know them better.

Premiere:
Pascal Babare –
Cave Without A Name
Ahead of its official release this Friday, today we have the pleasure of sharing a first listen to Pascal Babare’s stunning fourth album Cave Without A Name – a collection of modest chamber-folk that catches the charming singer-songwriter crafting his most assured and imaginative music yet.
Track by Track:
Sissysocks – Slink Away
Nine years on from the rippling echoes of his previous album, Melbourne electronic artist Tom Briglia aka Sissysocks opens up another dimension through serene sonic landscapes on his third full-length Slink Away. We had the pleasure of catching up with Sissysocks who let us in on the shaping of the long-awaited new record.
So, what’s it to you?
w/ Jake Robertson
Calm and collected on the exterior, Jake Robertson’s head is constantly and quietly turning over ideas. Currently the punk brains behind Alien Nosejob, we spoke to Jake about some records in his life and just what they mean to him.
They Made Me Do It –
Talking Influences with
Daniel Joshua
Off the back of the release of his new single ‘Future Past Present’, we got in touch with rising producer Daniel Joshua to dig into the influences behind his latest dose of otherworldly electronic-tinged art-pop.
Premiere:
Outer South – We Must Be Dreaming
A coalescence of evocative instrumentation, simmering hooks and humble indie-folk charm, Outer South’s debut album We Must Be Dreaming is a soothing remedy to a nostalgic state of mind. Today we have the pleasure of premiering the new album today ahead of its official release tomorrow.
Track by Track:
Leslie D. King & The Trembling Shakes –
Leslie D. King & The Trembling Shakes
On their self-titled debut, Leslie D. King & The Trembling Shakes serve up a collection of soul-soaked rock ’n’ roll that come loaded with charisma and plenty of heart. To help us get to know the songs a little better, Leslie talked us through the EP track by track.
Track by Track:
Redspencer – Dreamworld
Five years on from their colourful debut Perks, Melbourne’s adopted jangle trio Redspencer have returned with Dreamworld, the band’s latest foray into earnest, thoughtful and equally clever guitar-pop. Spanning genre and refreshing catharsis across its 13 tracks, we had Redspencer bandleader David McMillan talk us through the magic and wider themes behind Dreamworld.
Track by Track:
Ov Pain – The Churning Blue of Noon
Off the back of the release of The Churning Blue of Noon a few weeks back, we got in touch with Renee Barrance and Tim Player, the two minds that make up Dunedin/Melbourne experimental duo Ov Pain, to dig into their dark and disorientating new record.
Track by Track:
Skydeck – Coupon
Off the back of the release of Coupon last month, the second album from local duo Skydeck, we got in touch with Dom and Mitch from the band to get the stories behind each moment of warped post-punk that makes up the record.
Track by Track:
Marcus Whale – The Hunger
Marcus Whale’s The Hunger is a haunting ambient pop odyssey; a touchingly twisted exploration of doomed infatuation and a desperate plea for transformation, all told through the bloody lens of a vampire love story. We caught up with Marcus to get a better understanding of the meaning, inspiration and creation of this uniquely dark album experience.
So, what’s it to you?
w/ Thibault
Thibault’s debut LP Or Not Thibaut is a true whimsical treat, especially in these grey months of lockdown and isolation. Nicole kindly took us through and spoke about the records that coincide with moments in her life.
