Possible Humans - "Everybody Split" | Album Review

Possible Humans is a five-piece band out of Melbourne, for those that love guitars and driving bass lines.

Protomartyr - "Ultimate Success Today" | Album Review

Protomartyr - "Ultimate Success Today" | Album Review

The band sounds absolutely massive throughout the album. The instrumentals hit with precision; look no further than the guitar attack of “Processed By The Boys” and “I Am You Now,” or the push and pull of “Modern Business Hymns”. Joe Casey sounds like vintage Nick Cave, delivering fire and brimstone truths over the din.

Bananagun - "The True Story of Bananagun" | Album Review

Bananagun - "The True Story of Bananagun" | Album Review

To listen to Bananagun is to travel the world under an invigorating blend of inspiration. They are the youth basking in the glow of old styles: there are African grooves, drum and bass beats, tropicalia, and ‘60s psychedelic pop; it’s a credit to the band that their sonic melange settles so well as a whole.

Moth - "Machine Nation" | Album Review

Moth - "Machine Nation" | Album Review

Moth is the creative project of Darcy Berry, known for his punchy drumming in Melbourne’s strikingly different but equally excellent Gonzo and U-Bahn. Moth became known for their chaotic live performances around Melbourne, fleshing out the bare bones of the project with talent from bands such as Alien Nosejob and Body Maintenance.

Black Ends - "Stay Evil" | Album Review

Black Ends - "Stay Evil" | Album Review

The self-described “gunk pop” project of Seattle-based songwriter Nicolle Swims, Black Ends consists of Swims on guitar and vocals, Jonny Modes on drums, and Ben Swanson on bass. Despite postponed festivals and cancelled tours, Black Ends are still back with 13+ minutes of their finest and “gunkiest” work yet via Stay Evil.

Pile - "Magic Isn't Real" (10 Yr Anniversary Reissue) | Album Review

Pile - "Magic Isn't Real" (10 Yr Anniversary Reissue) | Album Review

An ape in midlife stasis; A talking bear; People in cocoons. On Magic Isn’t Real, the third album from Pile, surrealist imagery paints real crises - the feeling of monotony and parasitic relationships being just a few. While obtuse lyricism would be a defining characteristic for albums to come, Magic Isn’t Real was a defining moment in Pile’s discography.

Spice - "Spice" | Album Review

Spice - "Spice" | Album Review

Poised with emotional intelligence and calibrated force, the self-titled debut album from SPICE churns through the vast and emotive human chamber of pain and raw sentiment. This intoxicatingly precise and cathartic collective, exploring what the band refers to as the “power of groupthink,” is a true balance of life at its core.

NNAMDÏ - "KRAZY KARL" | Album Review

NNAMDÏ - "KRAZY KARL" | Album Review

NNAMDÏ’s latest effort, released less than three months after BRAT, is a 20 minute mind-fuck that displays the core of his imaginative genius. Inspired by Looney Tunes composer Carl Stalling, it takes what made Stalling’s music fun, inventive, and exciting, and makes it darker, weirder, more experimental, psychedelic, and overall braver.

Ohmme - "Fantasize Your Ghost" | Album Review

Ohmme - "Fantasize Your Ghost" | Album Review

The strong chemistry between Sima Cunningham and Macie Stewart is at the heart of their sound, manifesting in tight vocal harmonies and imaginative guitar work. Fantasize Your Ghost is essentially an album of rock songs, but Ohmme push the boundaries of what that means, finding ways to seamlessly lapse into experimental territory.
