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 […]

Whitely’s first album, ‘The Submarine’, generated a lot of buzz, and songs from it were featured in commercials, movies, TV shows, you name it. In its finest moments, […]

Album Review: Girls ‘Album’

November 2, 2009 by Lachy 0 Comments

San Francisco drug-pop outfit Girls have the dubious honour of being one of the most difficult to Google bands of all time. Not only is the band name a rather popular term for Google, but they even called their first album… ‘Album’. But really, who cares, when it’s this good? Somehow, in a world full […]
