I’d never really seen any band crowd fund successfully before, but I spose if anyone is gonna do it in Adelaide, it would be The Honey Pies. I think they were going for $3000, of which you could contribute anything you wanted. $30 got you a whole swag of goodies and $100 got you even [...]
OMG LONDON. I’m moving to London. This shit just got real.
I’ve recently discovered more Elephant 6 brilliance in The Olivia Tremor Control. Black Foilage: Animation Music Vol. 1 is fucking sick. Released in 1999 it’s a psychedelic mash up of experimental sound exploration and catchy pop. Interesting timing too – just the other day it got Best New Resissue on Pitchfork, along with it’s younger [...]

I lost my shit the first time I heard this band. They are like no-one else you’ve ever heard – a symphonic orchestra of rock and roll. Even their artwork is rad. [me] play Rocketbar this Friday 20 August, so unless you’re a retard you should go. Check out the song on www.meband.com
I can’t wait for the opening night of what I think will become THE party venue at this year’s Adelaide Fringe. Taking cues from the similar use of space in Melbourne (think St Jerome’s) Arcade Lane is rearing to go as an exciting new venue for Fringe acts including burlesque, cabaret and theatre shows, as [...]
Some fantastic bands are coming to Australia in March and OF COURSE the majority are NOT playing in Adelaide. I don’t even wanna get started on the way Adelaide always gets the raw deal. Shows booked for March 2010 in Melbourne include: The Big Pink Phoenix Spinnerette The Dead Weather Massive Attack I can’t wait [...]
One band I am hanging out to see at the Adelaide Fringe 2010 is creators of the “goblincore” genre Tim McMillan Band. I saw these guys entirely by accident at Spleen in Melbourne last year and had the opportunity to have a drink and chat with Tim afterwards. Tim was playing a solo set before [...]
2010 is already shaping up to be a big year. Here’s a run down of some of my most highly anticipated releases in the next few months. January RJD2 - The Colossus I was impressed with RJ’s departure from the hip hop styles of his earlier albums to a more comprehensive electronica/hip hop record in [...]
