Released: 10 October 1995 When people ask me what my favourite album of all time is I reply with No Doubt – Tragic Kingdom without any hesitance. “But why” always follows and it’s quite simple, the album production was done incredibly well and each song compliments the other perfectly. Looking back at No Doubts’ career…

ALBUM REVIEW: Taylor Henderon – Burnt Letters
Taylor Henderson’s second offering delivers 12 original tracks that see him opening up as an artist while exploring different sounds and opening up his vocal range. “Burnt Letters” is a hit and miss album with a few songs that are notably on point while others are predictable and boring. Henderson’s music lacks versatility and that’s…

LIVE REVIEW: James Blunt – Brisbane Convention And Exhibition Centre
You either love him or you hate him but there’s no denying that James Blunt is talented and an incredible showman. Opening the show with “Face The Sun” he provided the near sell out crowd with a high energy live show that didn’t disappoint. With hilarious and crude banter in between songs he had the…
SINGLE REVIEW: The Collective – Burn The Bright Lights
The Collective have returned with one less member, a new song and a slower sound. “Burn The Bright Lights” impresses with its strong harmonies and its cheesy but honest lyrics that will have girls melting. It’s been received well by radio, fans and critics alike but honestly the song is a bit too manufactured and…
SINGLE REVIEW: The Janoskians – Real Girls Eat Cake
I still can’t tell if this song is a joke or not. The Janoskians are well known for their funny (and cringing) YouTube videos and have since become the anti-boyband. “Real Girls Eat Cake” is the groups third single and is the most confronting and shocking one yet. After hearing the song for the first…
