ALBUM REVIEW – BLONDSHELL: IF YOU ASKED FOR A PICTURE

Stunning finger picking guitar blesses your ears as you are introduced to If You Asked For A Picture by Blondshell. ‘Thumbtack’ explores the theme of letting someone treat you horribly because at least they will treat you at all, to reference Phoebe Bridgers. This song is so easy to listen to as the melodies and […]
I have great respect and enthusiasm for the music of Femi Kuti, and he and his band have definitely earned the name ‘The Positive Force’, for much more than the joyous and uplifting experiences I connect with their records and the live performances I’ve been lucky enough to enjoy. Femi and his family (including his […]

ALBUM REVIEW – EZRA COLLECTIVE: DANCE, NO ONE’S WATCHING

“Dance is life and you can’t be angry when you’re dancing so keep dancing”, states the voiceover on ‘Our Element’, a brief linking track on Ezra Collective’s new album, ‘Dance, No One’s Watching’. While “anger is an energy” as John Lydon once described it, the horrendous fact that he has ended up as a Trump […]
IDLES’ fifth studio album, TANGK, is an interesting snapshot of where the band are now. To me, this was the album that would indicate their quality as a unit. 2017’s Brutalism and 2018’s Joy as an Act of Resistance were teeth-clenched post-punk records that confronted the frustration and revelry available in daily life. The band […]

ALBUM REVIEW – IDLES: TANGK

ALBUM REVIEW: SUN’S SIGNATURE: SUN’S SIGNATURE EXTENDED

The first words on Sun Signature’s extended EP, “the opening of a window onto rapture”, are an apt description of what is to follow. When the original EP was released in 2022, it marked the first new music from Elizabeth Fraser for 13 years. Blessed with one of the few voices that could genuinely be […]
Melbourne-based Maple Glider, the project of Tori Zietsch (pronounced like ‘peach’ with a z), has announced her debut album, ‘To Enjoy is the Only Thing’, due out on June 25th 2021 via Partisan Records. To coincide with the announcement, she has also shared ‘Swimming’, accompanied by a skeletal music video. On ‘Swimming’, Zietsch says: “This […]

NEW ALBUM TO BE RELEASED BY MAPLE GLIDER, BUT FIRST COMES HER NEW SINGLE ‘SWIMMING’

MELBOURNE-BASED SINGER-SONGWRITER MAPLE GLIDER JOINS PARTISAN RECORDS ROSTER ALONGSIDE THE LIKES OF LAURA MARLING

Melbourne-based singer-songwriter, Maple Glider, has announced her link up with Partisan Records (Laura Marling, Fela Kuti, IDLES, Fontaines D.C.) in partnership with the Australian label, Pieater. In celebration of the news, Maple Glider, aka Tori Ziestch, has also shared a new single and video for ‘Good Thing’ – a song borne of that ‘frozen and […]
The explosive crack of the snare, check. The ferocious drive of the bass, check. The controlled screech of the guitars, check. The snarl of the vocals, check. Yep, this is an Idles record. The band’s first two albums, ‘Brutalism’ and ‘Joy as an Act of Resistance’ have brought lots of success and the winning formula […]

IDLES have released the fourth song to be taken from their upcoming new album ‘Ultra Mono’ due to be released on 25th September via Partisan Records. The song is called ‘Model Village’ and comes with an animated video that has been directed by Michel Gondry and Olivier Gondry. Frontman Joe Talbot says of the track: […]
Pottery have detailed their debut LP – Welcome To Bobby’s Motel – out April 10th via Partisan Records, and shared the album’s double-decker single ‘Texas Drums Pt I & II’. A celebration of rhythm and groove, Welcome To Bobby’s Motel invites you to set yourself free, veering from highbrow motorik instrumentation to moments of playful […]
