The Underground Stage
“Sports Bra are just about one of my favourite damn bands right now, that Japandroids-vs-Bikini-Kill thing is just the fucking best. Fearsome.” Facebook | Instagram | Twitter [flickr_set id=”72157673318617747″]
“Second time seeing The Buoys and holy shit, when I said they were great before I totally undercooked it. So much spit, and emotion, and joy, and pure bloody fun. You’re going to spend a lot of time losing your shit to this band.” Facebook | Instagram | Twitter [flickr_set id=”72157697548433430″]
“100 have such a serrated edge to every single song it could cut bread while you weren’t looking. So. Much. Blood. Pumping.” Facebook | Instagram [flickr_set id=”72157673317417097″]
“Murray Darling has a seam of poetry running through it, gentle and clever, but accompanied by the occasional flashes of utter fury. Wonderful stuff.” Facebook | Instagram [flickr_set id=”72157703417726095″]
“Spit Chewy are like a hat, perched at a jaunty angle, cigarillo in its teeth, and a flickknife in its hand. Exactly who you want to run into a party, fully aware they’re going to steal your wallet and run into the night, cackling.” Facebook | Instagram [flickr_set id=”72157673316102917″]
“Otis Thomas is contemplatively daft. Some serious thought has gone into this particular musical unspooling. The train, she is off its rails – but that’s a feature, not a flaw.” Facebook | Instagram [flickr_set id=”72157703308076024″]
“Buddy Dingo sings wild-eyed songs about backyards and outback golf and kangaroos and is basically the offspring of a dusty boot, a wide-brimmed hat with some corks hanging off it, and some cricket. It’s totally demented, and not a small bit brilliant.” Facebook | Instagram [flickr_set id=”72157701903474371″]
“The Cool Whirrs bring – and I guess I should have seen this coming – an actual cool whirr of noise, one that soothes and flutters and jumps and coils around. There’s more funk than I’m usually comfortable with, but this is roaringly good fun, danceable and huggable, all at the same time.” Facebook [flickr_set […]
“There’s just bags of smarts in Warwick Kennedy’s set tonight – there’s some meaty head-losing pace, some truly witty guitar lines, Smudge / Lemonheads comfy-blanket songwriting that gives way to stuff that sounds it’s been propelled by a damn jet engine. Sharp as.” Facebook | Instagram [flickr_set id=”72157697269529830″]
