Matt & Kim
Positive Guy Meets Negative Blog
No we’re not talking about EMJ; negativity here generally means being ignored. We’re talking about New York blog Brooklyn Vegan, whose readers seem to have a strong love/hate relationship with Matt & Kim. Energetic Brooklyn dwellers Matt & Kim have a reputation for their manic, over the top and crazy live […]

Gang Gang Dance
Gang Gang Dance – Saint Dymphna
8/10
Gang Gang Dance is surely one of the most unique and interesting bands in the world today. Shimmering like a semi-submerged sea snake stalking its prey, the Brooklyn quartet’s fourth album is best described in aloof metaphors. With a mind-bending amount of experimentation and total destruction of clichés and genres, […]

Experimental Dental School
Red Wine and Jelly
Free albums rule, especially when they’re from awesome bands like Experimental Dental School. The Portland band has just released their brand new album Forest Field as a free download from their website. Shoko Horikawa and Jesse Hall aka XDS are one of the loudest sounding duos around. They somehow manage to […]

Catcall video
Cat Woman On The Move
Catcall has long been one of my favourite hip-hop artists, and is probably one the best hip hop artists in Australia, umm, ever! For the last few months she has been hard at work recording her debut album, which should be ready for release around August. Until then she says that […]

ODAWAS
ODAWAS- The Blue Depths
5/10
During a film the music often rushes at you, in bursts of romantic energy and in powerful rage. ODAWAS’ rushes at you the entire time; the whole eight song experience is like sitting through an intense film, where the main characters are slowly falling out of love and into other people’s arms. […]

Featured Reviews
Dynamo Go- The Fool Of Fountain City
9/10
“… Each song blushes with the confidence of knowing it is secretly being admired; admired for having complete control over it’s subject matter, which is very easy to get horribly wrong. Lead vocalist Gian’s voice is perfectly suited to this style of music, giving each song a wonderful openness…” […]

Grand Prix
Grand Prix- The Speed Of Sound
4/10
“This album harks back to the seventies with a rush of adrenaline and endorphin.” That’s how Andrew McKenzie, vocalist/guitarist for Grand Prix describes his new album. They’ve always been trying to channel something, on their first album it was country/bluegrass; their second album was rockabilly/surf and their third saw them […]
