The Bronze Medal's debut album - "Darlings"

5. High Fever

Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart: for I am called by thy name, O Lord God of hosts.

I sat not in the assembly of the mockers, nor rejoiced; I sat alone because of thy hand: for thou hast filled me with indignation.

Why is my pain perpetual, and my wound incurable, which refuseth to be healed? wilt thou be altogether unto me as a liar, and as waters that fail?




Jeremiah 15:16-18
King James Bible

friends of the mammon of unrighteousness;

because of thy hand: (Mission Beach)

Ailbhe Reddy's new single 'Distrust':

"‘Distrust’ is her latest track, a song which pushes and pulls between acceptance, desire and distrust: at once mournful yet resolved to move on." - Nialler9

Irish Times 'New Artist of the Week' - "Her latest track Distrust marks a turning point towards a more developed sound. With the production help of Darragh Nolan, is more complex and memorable than what has gone before." - Niall Byrne, The Irish Times

"The stark production, use of harmonic background texture and large vocal swells makes for beguiling track." - Stephen White, The Last Mixed Tape

"‘Distrust’ is an indie pop tune that showcases Ailbhe’s distinguishing vocals. With lyrics that are both emotive and defiant yet hold a hint of open vulnerability, this mid-tempo track is well worth a listen." - Anna Henderson, Dublin Concerts

Lyrics:

I'm not a mistake,
Hurts when you talk that way, that way.
I'm not a waste, 
The time it takes to fuck this up.
The distaste, distrust.

And I'll miss you,
I'll miss you...

But I'm not in love,
I don't think I can be, 
Thought that I could be with you.
I'm not in love,
No I can't be, 
Thought I could be with you, you.

With you, with you, with you...

It's not a shame,
You act this way, 
It just shows,
It's me you loathe.
I'm not afraid,
To walk away because I know.
I'm built to live alone.

And I'll miss you 
I'll miss you...

But I'm not in love,
I don't think I can be, 
Thought that I could be with you.
I'm not in love,
No I can't be, 
Thought I could be with you, you.

BLANK TAPE ANNOUNCE DEBUT RELEASE AS LABEL - Melbourne's Texture Like Sun have just completed their debut EP, and it's now time to launch with three special shows down the east coast w/ Patrick James. The EP is available digitally and physically through Blank Tape Music/MGM on the 2nd of November.

The self-titled EP was recorded across Darwin and Melbourne's Bounce County Studios, produced by award winning Pip Norman (Countbounce - TZU, Sparkadia, Ash Grunwald) and mixed by Dan Rejmer - a man who counts Bjork, Foals and Paul Kelly among his working credits. While the six piece’s sound couldn't be further away from anything they’ve done before, their cohesive approach remains apparent; evident through the effortless guild that bridges each of the songs on the EP.
The earthy vocals may draw ghostly parallels to Jeff Buckley and Scott Matthews, while there’s a certain zealousness that sees the band paint their folk and roots stylings through accounts of both brighter times and others of fragile refrain.
Compelling song writing doesn't need embellishment. Texture Like Sun may just seem to be another band dwelling on the human condition, but there’s a quality about the EP that descends well beyond just plaintive lyricism. Haunting track ʻBottleʼ is a moving account of addiction and loss in all its forms. The strength of this EP may be evident in its honest subject matter; the striking string section featured in ʻRubber Manʼ and the pacing melody of ʻOne Great Prizeʻ still salvages a sense of great warmth. Similarly, the slow, ruminative guitar of ʻWeekendʼ distils a dreamlike imprint of early mornings spent with the one you love.
There are releases that stay with you for a long time; songs which mirror our own stories, artists who mark themselves distinct - and others who, put more simply, are just quietly brilliant.
