The Jezabels

June 24, 2010 by Lachy 2 Comments

I’ve really been enjoying Sydney outfit The Jezabels for a while now, however I’m yet to see them live. This is set to change soon thankfully, with the band announcing that they will be playing a stand alone Melbourne headline show at The Toff on July 15th. They are coming off a successful run of […]

The Inbetweeners

June 21, 2010 by Lachy 2 Comments

I’m so in love with this song at the moment, Lola And Tom by The Inbetweeners: Lola And Tom tells a story about peoples’ private secrets and how these small but important things can completely change who they are, even if no-one knows them. It contrasts private and public lives, and does so with enthralling […]

Two New Arcade Fire Songs

June 15, 2010 by Lachy 2 Comments

Radio rips of two new Arcade Fire songs from their upcoming album ‘The Suburbs’ have surfaced. And wow. I like these much more than the two songs officially released so far, and can definitely see both of these being album favourites. These are simply superb songs. Can’t wait! “I would rather be wrong than live […]

Bang Bang Boss Kelly

June 9, 2010 by Lachy 3 Comments

For better or worse, for this five-piece from Brisbane, comparisons with Mumford And Sons are inevitable. The timing for these guys is perhaps a bit unfortunate- if they had come out a year ago with a rollicking heartfelt banjo anthem with plenty of ‘fuck’s in the chorus then everybody would probably be talking about how […]

You Have To Hear: Glass Towers

June 2, 2010 by Lachy 0 Comments

Glass Towers are a really cool Byron Bay band currently competing as one of the finalists in the Triple J Unearthed High School competition. However both their songwriting and their musical experience are far beyond that of your typical high school band. They have played alongside the likes of Tame Impala and Hungry Kids Of […]

Hear The New Arcade Fire Songs In Full

May 27, 2010 by Lachy 2 Comments

It appears that only a few days after posting snippets of these songs with great excitement, they have already leaked to the internet. Yay, the future. I wouldn’t call either of them particularly special for Arcade Fire’s admittedly ridiculously high standards, but I can definitely see them being growers, and there’s no doubt they are […]
