Song of the Day #773: Clamm

Song of the Day #773: Clamm

Songs about the days of the week? All the best songs are about Monday. Don’t @ me, just Google it and start YouTubing.  Sure there are some fine songs about Fridays, Saturdays (usually restricted to Saturday night) and even some amazing songs about Sundays (usually restricted to the morning) but nothing seems to inspire like […]

Song of the Day #772: Party Dozen

It feels like only yesterday that we were talking to Kirsty from Party Dozen about their then upcoming second album, Pray For Party Dozen, and her experiences through the very first of many COVID lockdowns.  Reading through that interview, I think there’s a sense of naivety on both our parts about COVID and what it […]

Song of the Day #771: Cash Savage And The Last Drinks

‘Push’, the new song from Cash Savage And The Last Drinks is today’s Song of The Day.  And yet, that accolade just doesn’t seem enough.  After all, if we we organised enough, there’d be another Song of the Day tomorrow, and the day after and the day after.  Song of the Week? Yeah, maybe.  And […]

Song of the Day #770 – Violent Soho

Last Thursday was a bit of a sad day for the Brisbane music scene. Firstly Collapse Board favourites, The Goon Sax announced that rather than head out to tour with Interpol and then do some shows opening for Pavement, they were instead going to break up. They’ve said there’ll be some final Australian dates before […]

Song of the Day #769 – Nice Biscuit

One of these days I will get around to updating my own blog site.  No, I will… It was one of the things I thought might happen with COVID lockdowns and all the extra time I was going to get back by not commuting and with not being able to leave the house. This Is […]

Song of the Day #768 – Dead Man’s Bones

Song of the Day is typically about sharing something new or vaguely recent but today we’re going back to 2009.  You can blame Cat Power, who has covered ‘Pa Pa Power‘ on her new album. As I was listening to her new ‘Covers’ album, I was alternating between her versions and the original versions.  I’d […]

Song of the Day #767: Cat Power

I spend an unhealthy amount of time thinking/mildly obsessing about the lives of famous musicians.  I mean if you’re someone like Paul McCartney or Bob Dylan, do you wake up in the morning and think to yourself, “Fuck me! I’m Paul McCartney, I was in the Beatles, I helped change pop culture and music forever […]

Song of the Day #766 – Bill Orcutt & Chris Corsano

If ‘Best Albums of the Year’ lists serve any good purpose, it’s to point out a few albums that went completely under my radar in the last 12 months (or more like 9 months given how early they come out these days). In at Number 43 with a bullet in The Guardian’s Best Albums of […]

Song of the Day #765 – Wet Leg

Although we’re well into the second week of 2022, I think I can still just about get away with wishing everyone a Happy New Year. I think we all need 2022 to be a better year than the last couple of trips around the sun. As 2021 came to an end I really started to […]

Song of the Day #764: Georgia Maq

Casting my mind back to those carefree days at the back-end of 2019, I was struggling to decide on my favourite album of the year.  All those end of year lists had been out for weeks/months but all I’d heard was a lot of ok albums and nothing that really stood out. Then very late […]
