Singles Club: The Vines – Metal Zone
Justin Edwards: I can only apologise in advance… So The Vines are BACK!!! BACK!!! BACK!!! and they’ve put out two songs in the last week. Conor McNicholas’s tenure as Editor of NME (before he left for his dream job at Top Gear magazine) didn’t have a lot of high points but the apology for The […]
Singles Club: Violent Soho – Fur Eyes
Justin Edwards: So as Jodi and I were chatting about the suddenly all-conquering Violent Soho earlier, due to being denied for reviewer/photographer spaces for any of their 3 shows at The Hi-Fi, it seems like an apt time to talk about their new single/clip. Looking through my often forgotten Flickr account recently, they’re one of […]
In Photos: I Used To Skate Once 10 @ The Zoo, 26.06.2014
I Used To Skate Once makes its annual return to The Zoo for its 10th anniversary, including music from Roku Music, Statler & Waldorf and foxy/moron.

Sonic Masala Festival featured 22 bands at the Greenslopes Bowls Club, with Scul Hazzards making a long overdue return to Brisbane as the final act of the night.
Singles Club: The Preatures – Two Tone Melody
Justin Edwards: If I remember correctly, The Preatures’ “Is This How You Feel?” was the most played song last year on triple j, as well as coming in at No. 9 in the Hottest 100. It was a song that I never really thought much of either way. Now they have a new song and […]
Singles Club: Dune Rats – Funny Guy & DZ Deathrays – Reflective Skull
Justin Edwards: After Kimbra and Lana Del Ray, I didn’t know where we should go next. The new La Roux is fairly unforgettable, I did think about Iggy Azalea as they released a video for ‘Problem’ (the song that she features on) and she’s been in the news over here (further proof that everyone copies […]
Singles Club: Lana Del Ray – Shades Of Cool (Polydor/Interscope)
Darragh Murray: This is only enjoyable if you like listening to the ‘best of’ Bond theme music collection. It’s not totally shit, but it’s not very good either. Triple J will love it. Lee Alexandra Adcock: The song would’ve been fine if she hadn’t stuffed it with instruments. She has this genuinely lovely (albeit carefully […]
Kimbra – 90s Music (Warner Music)
Justin Edwards: It seems like a good time to talk about the new Kimbra song. We were meant to be covering her supporting Janelle Monae last week but then the tour got cancelled. If you ask me it was pretty ambitious booking the Conventions Centre (c4,500 capacity) and charging something like $106 a pop. I paid […]
In Words: Cults @ The Zoo, 06.05.2014
Back in Collapse Board’s glory days of 2011 we ran 10 reviews of Cult’s debut album. It didn’t go down very well with a number of people and I can remember one nameless Brisbane-based street press music writer (nameless more because I can’t actually remember who actually said, rather than to protect their good name […]
