Hot Rats : A movie for your ears

So you want to listen to Frank Zappa? Perhaps you're overwhelmed by the frankly staggering discography or the, let's be honest, inaccessible nature of some of the weirder stuff, or hey perhaps you've never even heard of the guy. This is all fine. I present for your consideration the album, fresh from the dissolution of... Continue Reading →

Reviewed – The Strokes – The New Abnormal

Rating - 4/5 ‘The New Abnormal’ is the culmination of recording sessions stretching back to 2016 featuring production from heavyweight Rick Rubin. It’s a collection of stripped back, mature-sounding tracks that show The Strokes have mellowed significantly, but like a glass of fine wine has aged well; Rubin’s characteristic production complements the simplicity and tranquility...

Reviewed – Primo – Machine

Rating - 1/5 Primo and all-female Australian rock bring us their latest single “Machine” from the upcoming second album “Sogni”. It has an unusual approach with the band members harmonizing together to sing the lyrics. This gives the vocals a kind of monotonous droning whine which I guess fits with the machine vibe but it...
