This band sounds great, never heard of them, the lead guitar sounds likes it has been fed straight into a computer, but not bad at all!

So I just bought 'West'. I really like it.

The guitarist is taking the piss though, right?

I have heard they're good live. Do they do 20 minute extended solos? Sounds like they would.

SYDNEY: The Laurels + DCM
BRISBANE: Secret Birds + Nite Fields
MELBOURNE: Beaches + Forces
PERTH: Mental Powers and French Rockets


FrankieTeardrop  said about 1 year ago:

I'm not griping, but for a cultural exchange of some sort, could it be arranged for Laurels to play in Melbourne and Beaches to go up to Sydney? Or maybe add ZOND to the bill? Yeah, I know... I'm dreaming.

I'm really looking forward to this tour. Please bring back Moon Duo soon too, Mistletone.

PBS interview coming up round 6:00 on City Slang


Ralph Malph  said about 1 year ago:

I loved last night. The guys are just about the nicest lads you could meet. Nash is a champion. Only downside was I missed out on a shirt. The plus was grabbing the vinyl remix and a poster.


nexus  said about 1 year ago:

Great night, but the vocal mix sucked. what is it about venues where the the vocals up are muffled but you can hear all the other instruments?


mistletone  said about 1 year ago:

Shjips tour poster now up on mail order (sorry it took so long!).


djbollocks  said about 6 months ago:

This remix EP is great.
