The Underground Stage
“WAAAAAAGH! Holy shit kids, you badly need to hear this voice and see this band. Cry Club are doing their first Sydney gig right now and these songs are good enough to set the whole fucking world to rights. This is soul and massive pop and Dinosaur Jr on guitar and everything else you ever […]
“Bleeding Knees Club have literally never let me down. Not once, not with one note. It’s daft as a brush but it’s well-read and made of art. It gives you bruises – like the ones I got down the front getting this shot – but it’s joyous and triumphant. It comes off disposable, but the […]
“Together Pangea tear the face off the place tonight. They might be in from LA, but they’re welcomed like old friends here. Jagged, hilarious, mayhem-fuelled and just BUCKETS full of tune. GodDAMN.” Facebook | Instagram | Twitter [flickr_set id=”72157667550854498″]
“Fritz are in from Newcastle and have brought all the charm in the world with them. They claim that they’re going to go shoegaze at some point but it really doesn’t, it’s like they’re allergic to producing anything except super-catchy, galatically adorable Allo Darlin-ish slices of lovely. Bags and bags and bags of promise-of-even-more-awesome-to-come, and […]
“Particles are just one of those fun-as-hell bands I can’t stop going to see. It’s got yards full of tune, they’re brilliant to watch, and it goes like a bloody train in all sorts of mad directions. Right up your face, and inventively loud – just tue way you know you love it.” Facebook | […]
“So good to see Winter Moon, that nutty fission of soul and punk and metal and general noise is such a pleasure. There’s even more of them than the last time I saw them, and the sound just gets bigger and bigger. There are few finer things in life than tuneful yelling backed with massive […]
“Cash are through from Melbourne and have managed to squeeze a truck-sized package of smoky power into a two-piece. Chunky great riffs, a healthy side of floor toms, and a vocal that absolutely-beyond-any-doubt *knows* it’s better than you. Because it is.” Facebook | Instagram [flickr_set id=”72157694125455774″]
“Lord Dodongo have this ridiculous sense of theatre and drama, like QOTSA staged by Lloyd-Webber. It’s insistent and atmospheric and as tough as a fucking goat. This is honestly quite a bit magnificent.” Facebook | Instagram [flickr_set id=”72157694125423894″]
“Cakefight have come to visit and they do make an entrance. Thumping and giddy, this is isn’t for the faint of heart, it’s full to the brim and spilling over the edges.” Facebook | Instagram [flickr_set id=”72157694052872254″]
