No Dice Paradise rolled into The OAF again last night. The monthly night has been pushing some absolutely fantastic music recently. It’s monthly, worth checking out. Last night brought Founds, Tank, Elizabeth Rose & Rockets together on a brilliant mixed-bill. All the artists are super independent & super fantastic, so you should check them out.
More after the break.
I thought i’d never have to go back to the Tote when it closed its doors last year – I was wrong of course. It is still an ear deafening band room with shit stage lights but on this occasion I didn’t care. Harmony are a welcome relief to the usual pup rock that infests this Collingwood landmark. I have written about the 7″ so I won’t go on but it was great to hear a full set. This is dark stuff but by adding the gorgeous vocals of three women, Harmony make you feel that a tragedy had to happen and it becomes a beautiful experience.
I’ve added Black Bobs as a taster but you can buy the limited (only 250 copies) LP here – http://solarsonar.bigcartel.com/product/harmony-self-titled-full-length and try not to murder anyone for fun after you hear it.

Tank – ‘Last Night I Heard Everything In Slow Motion’
‘Last Night I Heard Everything In Slow Motion’ by Tank is an in exercise super sweet ambience, strung together with violin & heavy reverb (as well as a tasteful dash of autotune). Tank’s new to the scene but already producing reliably listenable music. Some of the best up-and-coming chillwave in Sydney.
He’s currently working on an EP, so keep an ear to the ground – or just the computer screen, if you want to keep your ears clean.

Storm in a Teacup rolled a blanket of glorious folk over the Factory Theatre, flowing between sweet, simple acoustic pieces and tempestuous full-band numbers.
The lineup featured Tinpan Orange, Jordie Lane, Jen Cloher, Harry Angus, Liz Martin and Husky, individually incredible and collectively amazing.
Let’s hope SiaT comes around again – it finishes tonight in Mullimbimby.

It’s winter and it’s bloody cold, a bastard with a biting chill thats left me and everyone I know curled up inside, fighting off the cold. Dead Letter Chorus are back with Yellow House, bringing warmth and youthful romanticism back to this bitter winter.
The video is super honest in it’s delivery – singers Gabby Huber and Cameron Potts are almost painfully cute as they ride across pastel golden fields with the sun on their backs. This is a song of sweet love & warm living rooms, and a clip to match.
It says good things of their new album, Yearlings, due out mid June.
