Fanzine #07 | Sep 2023
September was exhausting, a non-stop riot of relentless, glorious stage action and song. From The Belair Lip Bombs(this month’s cover photo) to The Vanns to Luca Brasi to Private Wives, it was just one killer set after another. As if the shows weren’t enough, there was one killer new releases after the other too, with […]
DOWNGIRL – Fiend
“This one is taken from DOWNGIRL’s densely-packed debut EP ‘Manic’, and like the rest of this collection, it broadcasts live from dark places. The joy though is that it’s always reaching for better – and it’s damn well going to bring you along with it 📡”
DOWNGIRL – Boys
“With another merciless hook to the chin, DOWNGIRL connect another shot ahead of their EP release later in the year. Fast and ruthless, it’s another solid blow landed from a band that’s truly fighting fit right now 🥊”

Last month’s insane show from Downgirl makes this month’s cover, a glorious display of lunacy and mayhem. There was a ton more goodies to be found across May though, and this issue features shows from Loser and Acacia Bloom, as well as the madcap return to Sydney of West Thebarton, plus a bunch more. Off […]
DOWNGIRL – 2006
“Downgirl’s latest shoves and elbows its way to the front, insistent and determined. In lesser hands it could easily descend into tedious dirge territory, but there’s a sharpness and a dark sense of humour that cuts deep but lifts higher

Downgirl @ The Duke Of Enmore, 5th May
“Downgirl take us to church tonight, leaving us penitent and flagellating. The theatre may be holy and hilarious, but the music raises pure merry hell, buzzsaw guitars and pounding rhythms enough to strip the retinas off of eyeballs. Get on your knees sinners, and worship.” Gallery Learn More Facebook | Instagram
Downgirl @ Moshpit, 20th May
“Downgirl bring the bass-heavy riffs and the get-bent attitude to please both the old heads raised on L7 as well the anger-fuelled kids of right the hell now. Fury rarely comes with such sneering, soaring song and it’s enough to launch us all clear off the ground and through the damn ceiling.” Gallery Learn More […]
DOWNGIRL @ The Lansdowne, 4th Mar
“‘Twas the night before Mardi Gras and all through the house, not a creature was stirring… until the first notes of Downgirl, when every living thing within earshot woke the fuck up and wondered, reasonably, whether the world was ending. A fearsome set, where everything is inside out, an impossible puzzle of things that don’t […]
