Olivia's World - Sourgum

Simple power pop punkness from Australia's Olivia's World..... The loss of love all revved up with a noisy sax finale to boot....

Surf Curse - Freaks

Muddy production disguising a relatable scream-along indie surf-rock anthem. Released 2013.

Hatchie - Wonder

An emotional longing for connection that's just not there - shoegaze, dream-pop infused despair with just a dash of early Lush. 

Yuasa-Exide - RJR Nabisco Takeover

Lo-fi basement jangle - sort of reminiscent of early Nun stuff like The Clean - guess that's why I like it.... Released 2024 by Douglas Busson (he likes batteries!). 

schande - Palimpsest

A reused page of manuscript - past layers evident beneath the present - distorted guitars to boot. Singer and guitarist Jen Chochinov in two glorious minds with this one....

Thanks for coming - 10:19

Simple, singing, strumming, song stuff that takes a turn and soars... Thanks for coming - a vehicle for the very lo-fi and prolific Rachel Brown. A 2020 release.

Craig Finn - Luke & Leanna

Synth-led story-telling and the sad tale of modern-day urban life. Craig Finn (the Hold Steady) gone solo. Released Apr 2025.
