Neil Diamond @ Brisbane Entertainment Centre, 23.03.11
“The rules of tonight are very simple. I go where the noise takes me.”
Everett True does not like Kings Of Leon
Someone was accusing me of going soft on Kings Of Leon the other day. Bangs wept! I CANNOT have such aspersions cast on my professional integrity. The following is for him, my faceless accuser. Reprinted from Something Awful, 19/11/10.
Song of the day – 310: Idiot Culture
This is so molten and heavy, and full-on fucking ROCK, it makes the term ‘grunge’ seem patsy-waist in comparison.

There must be a ton of pissed-off Korn fans out there
Song of the Day – 309: Family Fodder
You can hear elements of everyone that mattered … Swell Maps, New Age Steppers, This Heat, The Door And The Window, ATV, Twelve Cubic Feet, Robert Wyatt, The Raincoats, Arthur Russell, The Slits …
a Diamond in the smooth
Damn, I’m excited. We’re going to see Neil Diamond tonight!
Song of the day – 308: KASMs
You could watch KASMs with the sound off, and they’d still sound better than 98 per cent of their peers.
Song of the day – 307: Cults (a rejoinder to the hipsters)
Maybe you too aren’t lucky enough to exist within the reach of the post-No Age kids, and aren’t a Vice editor. Don’t be worried. Come enjoy this. Music to make you swoon.
Song of the day – 306: Anne Clark
Been posting up a fair amount of French coldwave from the early 80s. Seems only right to post up its British equivalent.
Song of the day – 305: The Edwin Hawkins Singers
Greatest vocal performance on vinyl ever? One of them, for sure.
