Video Premiere:
Astronaughty – Changing Hands
Today we’ve got the pleasure of premiering the debut single and clip from emerging party-starters Astronaughty – ‘Changing Hands’ is a futuristic indie-rock belter that’ll transport you out of wintery Melbourne and get you in the mood for a boogie in the sun.
Track by Track:
Leah Senior – The Passing Scene
One moment whimsical, the next introspective and pensive, Leah Senior’s third album The Passing Scene is an unassuming triumph of a record that’s themes of living life and the world changing around us make it the sort of album to sink deeply into.
Premiere:
Moth – Jealousy
Ahead of the release of their debut 7” EP next Friday via Marthouse Records, emerging weirdos Moth have treated us to a sneak preview of ‘Jealousy’, another cut of their haphazard noise-punk.
They Made Me Do It –
Talking Influences with M.W.
Our friends at Spoilsport Records are bringing us another excellent release with a collection of jangling and personal demos from bedroom-pop gem M.W., and ahead of its release next week, we had Meaghan talk us through some of the inspiration behind the tracks.
Underneath the Written Letter –
A Chat with Quiet Blue
With the release of his new single ‘Lost It All’, Quiet Blue is carving out a place for himself in the Australian music scene, with his fusion of pop, folk and electronica, grounded in misty-eyed storytelling.
Speed Dating:
Double Vanity, Sir Jude,
The Dollar Bill Murrays and Seb Szabo
Another week, another four chances at finding the one.
Video Premiere:
Scurvylicious – Wiser
Alt-country turned rock ’n’ roll locals Scurvylicious have kicked things up a notch with their latest single ‘Wiser’ – a dreamy pre-summer anthem guaranteed to send you into a head nodding, foot tapping trance before you even clock what’s happening.
Track by Track:
Immigrant Union –
Judas
Judas, the new album from Melbourne long-timers Immigrant Union is a rollercoastering collection of folk infused psychedelia that certainly won’t betray your high expectations of the band. Songwriter/singer duo Bob Harrow and Brent DeBoer have dropped by to take you through each of the album’s eleven tracks.
Premiere:
Agency – Long Gone
Canberra quartet Agency come roaring back with their first new music since 2016, a gnashing post-punk bruiser that’s equally anthemic and agitated.
Speed Dating:
Keaper, A Rioting Mind,
The Double Happiness and If So Why
Another week, another four chances at finding the one.
Track by Track:
Dr. Chicken Gristle –
Experimental Pornography
Following the reissue of his album Experimental Pornography last month via Stargazed Records, experimental-pop weirdo Dr. Chicken Gristle is taking to the internet this weekend to celebrate with a special livestream performance. Ahead of tomorrow’s proceedings, we got in touch with the Doc to dig into each track on his bizarre debut album.
