The Bon Scotts ‘Polluted Sea’

June 27, 2011 by Lachy 0 Comments

The Bon Scotts are a Melbourne seven-piece, and they’re not an AC/DC cover band. Far from it, instead they play a distinctly clamorous and hectic form of folk music with bellowing choruses and interesting use of unconventional instruments.

Bon Iver ‘I Can’t Make You Love Me’

June 20, 2011 by Lachy 0 Comments

I remember watching Justin Vernon play Jimmy Fallon a couple of weeks ago, waiting expectantly for one of the many killer tracks from Bon Iver’s latest album. Maybe a little ‘Towers’? Or even the slowly building ‘Holocene’? Or possible the safer options, ‘Perth’ or ‘Calgary’? But instead he played a song I had never heard before. It wasn’t what I had been expecting (or hoping for), but it was nevertheless utterly beautiful.

When I saw Foster The People live this song, Broken Jaw, really stood out. Therefore I was a bit surprised to find that it was not a part of the tracklist of the band’s phenomenal debut album ‘Torches’. Never fear however, because the track has been included as an iTunes bonus song for the record, so we can finally hear it in studio form.

Acoustic The Jezabels Is Pretty Much Amazing

May 24, 2011 by Lachy 0 Comments

The Jezabels are my favourite Australian band at the moment, and while their studio music is nothing short of stunning, like all great artists the band really shine when playing live. Up until now I had only ever seen them play with a full compliment of instruments and electronics, however the band recently sat down with the always excellent Off Guard Gigs to perform an acoustic version of their amazing song ‘Hurt Me’.
