NEW MUSIC: The Black Ryder – Let Me Be Your Light

The Black Ryder seemed to disappear into a hazy abyss of anonymity a few years ago. The reality was a relationship dissolution between Aimee Nash and Scott Von Ryper and a relocation to Los Angeles. Surprisingly and thankfully for fans of their debut LP Buy The Ticket, Take The Ride they realised and valued the musical chemistry that still existed and continued to write and plot … Continue reading NEW MUSIC: The Black Ryder – Let Me Be Your Light

VIDEO: Donny Benét feat. Kirin J. Callinan – The Edge

Carrying on the audio visual brilliance of videos and tracks from Donny Benét’s excellent 2014 LP Weekend At Donny’s is the new clip for the track ‘The Edge’, featuring the Dave Gahan meets Andrew Eldritch vocals of local legend Kirin J. Callinan. And to think this pair was passed over to represent Australia at Eurovision. The event needs and the audience surely craves the duo’s shadowy … Continue reading VIDEO: Donny Benét feat.

ALBUM REVIEW: Sleater-Kinney – No Cities To Love

Few bands know when to call it quits, the good ones calling time when they are still a potent musical entity, still at the top of their game. Sleater-Kinney never put a foot wrong in the first decade of their existence, churning out eight excellent albums that were immediately recognisable as the work of Corin Tucker, Carrie Brownstein and Janet Weiss. In 2005 they stepped … Continue reading ALBUM REVIEW: Sleater-Kinney – No Cities To Love

NEW MUSIC: METZ – Acetate

We were big fans of the debut METZ album and from the sound of this first single ‘Acetate’ the new album (II) promises to be equally brutal and infectious. These guys play physical music that hits like a sledgehammer and hypnotises like a deviant snake charmer on speed. As their press release says:  The guitars are titanic, the drums ill-tempered, the vocals chilling, and the volume … Continue reading NEW MUSIC: METZ – Acetate

NEW MUSIC: Dogheart – Holding Out

Dogheart are a trio out of Portland who are about to release their debut full-length What Burns The Best on February 17th. They cut a freewheeling guitar pop swathe through jangling guitars and sometimes distorted melodic vocals. There’s that slacker vibe that makes it all sound slightly DIY and homespun. You feel like you’ve heard it all before and you kind of have but on the evidence of their … Continue reading NEW MUSIC: Dogheart – Holding Out

NEW MUSIC: Viet Cong – Silhouettes

Out of the ashes of the band Women come Canadian quartet Viet Cong. Theirs is a dark and rhythmic post-punk guitar sound.

Here’s the clip for the track ‘Silhouettes’. You can watch the video for their first … Continue reading NEW MUSIC: Viet Cong – Silhouettes

NEWS: Courtney Barnett announces debut LP releases new single/video

Courtney Barnett has had a crazy last couple of years since she first started building a fan-base on the back of the ‘History Eraser’ single. The 2 x EP The Double EP: A Sea of Split Peas cemented her reputation as a quirky songwriter with the ability to pen deadpan lyrics laced with humour and wry observations on life and she backed up the groundswell of interest … Continue reading NEWS: Courtney Barnett announces debut LP releases new single/video
