Organs @ Vic On The Park, 22nd Dec

“Organs are way fun! All the snot you’d ever need, but with the widest-grinning songs propelling it all. It’s that really twitchy and aggro punk band you like, just with a mouthful of pingers.” Facebook | Instagram [flickr_set id=”72157712313232742″]

August Auzins @ Vic On The Park, 22nd Dec

“First time seeing August Auzins but it’s both loudly memorable and memorably loud. Downbeat, bass heavy, with some truly impressive squalls of noise, it’s like being hit in the face with a storm at sea.” Facebook | Instagram [flickr_set id=”72157712312523562″]

Flangipanis @ Frankie’s, 15th Dec

“Brisbane’s Flangipanis bring Formula 1 punk rock to Sydney tonight, high-speed and high-tech, fun to watch and not a little deafening. There are clearly punters in tonight who’ve been waiting to see them live – next time, I want to be one of them too, they’re having all the fun.” Facebook | Instagram | Twitter

Nerdlinger @ Frankie’s, 15th Dec

“It is physically impossible to watch a Nerdlinger show and not grin like a goon at some point. Like jesters, they shake sticks in your face and remind you that life is inherently nonsense, and you really ought not take yourself too seriously. That is a serious message for such delirious times.” Facebook | Instagram […]

Revellers @ Frankie’s, 15th Dec

“Aw hey, look! Revellers are back! Fair’s fair, I never saw them before they took their break – but I did enjoy “Your Round” more than a few times. That gets played tonight, plus the trademark mix of tight melody, bruising rhythm and FUCKING SCREAMING OUT LOUD. It hasn’t aged badly. New one’s a belter […]

The Great Awake @ Frankie’s, Dec 15

“The Great Awake bring a hatful of tune to every set, as well more enthusiasm than literally all of the puppies – it’s hard to watch this on a Sunday and not just cross off the the early half of the coming week as a bad job. Fun served up by the barrel.” Facebook | […]

Andy Golledge – When Your Mind’s Away

“Andy Golledge might be fond of cowboy hats, but he’s a long way from being all stetson and no song. This mournful little beauty is just as at home by a fire under a prairie sky as it is as a contrast to the madhouse of city life. Someone get me a damn horse.” Learn […]

Good Boy – Teens Of The Stoned Age

“Good Boy have always had some smooth moves when it comes to a guitar lick and a tune, and in a time of upheaval and turbulence it’s comforting to know that some things don’t change. Also, wordplay. Nice one.” Learn More: Facebook – Instagram – Twitter

Candy @ The Sly Fox, 7th Dec

“Candy may sound – on record – like a terrific bedroom experiment, like someone playing with guitar, a bit of electronics and great pop. Live, the electronics are gone, and it is MASSIVE guitar jangle-punk of the highest water. Such a way with a song, and that giddy sneer / smile vocal never fails to […]
