Arthur Russell

You need to know him. Plain and simple.
Beg, Borrow or Steal to get some of his records.
'Another Thought' is my favourite, not so much in a album kinda way, but in a 'there's 3 songs on that record that make it better than any other one of his records collectively' kinda way.
This might actually be my favourite song of all time....

P.S.

These guys are funnier than space docking too.
Just found out I don't have to work tomorrow so I could of
A) gone to Paul Kelly at Twin Towns and a Mardi Grass trip
B) get Lynch to fly me to tenterfield to camp
massive fuckin bummer, guess I'll be spending the day in the library instead studying viruses. w00+!!!!

This brings me nicely to the overwhelming feeling of this album, which is possible my 2nd or 3rd favourite of all time.


With songs such as 'way of the world', 'life' and 'living for the depression' this album is all about life being kinda shitty..
This will definitely not be everyones cup of tea. its punk that isn't fast, sounds like its recorded in the batcave (Mahers lane batcave not that fancy one in the movies), its noisy, poorly executed and very very repetitive (in a good daft punk kinda way). Subtle brutality.

This band are touring soon which is something I never would of dreamt up in a million years. Supports are pretty good too (particularly in Sydney and Melbourne). Can't wait.

If you hate this... Thats kinda the idea. Its a grower but and these guys are only behind Bad Brains and Black Flag in my 'punk' books.

Kickflip over the rainbow!

Nimbin Mardi grass is on this weekend! Don't forget to pack your skateboard with your bong because the place has a super fun skate park. It's normally really chilled out and the local guys have a working bee on Saturday's that starts at 9am with a BBQ and beers at lunch. One Love
