“I’m so glad you’re all here” Kav Temperely quietly confessed to the intimate Brisbane crowd. This was the first time he had officially hit the road as a solo artist as he is usually the frontman of your favourite Australian rock band, Eskimo Joe. He jokingly added “I’m here for your entertainment, so get comfy…
ALBUM REVIEW: A Star Is Born Soundtrack
The movie ‘A Star Is Born’ has been told multiple times with some of Hollywood’s greats like Judy Garland and Barbra Streisand playing the leading roles. But there has never been such a hype surrounding it like the upcoming Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga version. It’s already receiving a whole lot of Oscar Buzz and…
ALBUM REVIEW: Logic – YSIV
Last year Maryland rapper Logic was thrown into the spotlight with his number one record ‘Everybody’ and his politically charged single ‘1-800-273-8255’. With his new found fame in tow he has decided to release his fourth studio album ‘YSIV’ which hears him experimenting with a new alter ego. Incorporating 60’s and 70s music into his…
ALBUM REVIEW: Twenty One Pilots – Trench
Over the years Twenty One Pilots have delivered some massive and innovative alternative rock meets pop moments that have undoubtedly inspired so many fans and musicians alike.

ALBUM REVIEW: LANY – Malibu Nights
Heartbreak is a funny thing. It can either destroy you or it can inspire you to create some of your most personal and vulnerable art. And that is exactly what it has done for LANY. Earlier this year, lead singer Paul Klein went through a pretty public break-up with Dua Lipa and he escaped from…
ALBUM REVIEW: Last Dinosaurs – Yumeno Garden
The return of Brisbane favourites, Last Dinosaurs has been a bit of a long time coming. Their third studio album ‘Yumeno Garden’ comes three years after the release of ‘Wellness’ and hears them returning to their bright and punchy indie-rock. However this time they are a little punchier with a raw approach to the production…
SINGLE REVIEW: Charli XCX feat. Troye Sivan – 1999
Charli XCX has become the queen of singles with a whole year dedicated to the constant release of new music and non-stop touring. The finale of her ‘summer collection’ is the bright and playful synth pop track ‘1999’. Teaming up with Australian favourite Troye Sivan, they cheekily wish they could go back in time and…
SINGLE REVIEW: Cub Sport – Sometimes
2018 has been a big year for Cub Sport. I feel like the Brisbane four-piece haven’t stopped touring since their sophomore record ‘Bats’ was released last year with a massive run of sold out headline shows in Australia and overseas as well as recently joining Vance Joy on the road for his sold out arena…
SINGLE REVIEW: Sigrid – Sucker Punch
I feel like I’ve spent all of 2018 just waiting for Sigrid to release her debut album and I’m unsure if we are going to hear it anytime soon so I guess a new single is okay instead. ‘Sucker Punch’ is a brand new track that the Norwegian songstress has never played live before and…
SINGLE REVIEW: Polish Club – Clarity
After a year between releases, Australian rock duo Polish Club are back with their first single from their forthcoming second studio album. ‘Clarity’ is a epic 4 minute track that hears them throwing together crunching guitars, steady baselines and crashing drums. Whilst this big and intense sound could become a bit overwhelming they’ve been able…
