The War On Drugs - Red Eyes

Taken from the new album 'Grassed Inn', Blank Realm unleash the triumphant transition of their nascent fluorescent rock'n'roll glow in to full-blown spiky pop craft. Harking back to the halcyon days of Talking Heads, underpinned by the off-kilter psychedelic blues of Royal Trux. Like Dylan mixing it with Suicide on Highway 61 and a half in a far off universe.

Blank Realm:

Some are already calling 2014 ‘the year of Blank Realm’ and why not? They’ve received glowingly positive reviews for their new record, Grassed Inn, from the likes of Pitchfork; Mojo; The Wire and The Guardian.

The Brisbane quartet are taking their psychedelic slacker-rock worldwide and all good plans have to start somewhere so they started last week at The Underdog in Brisbane. The live recording team were there for an album launch full of drunken revelry, a celebration of all things realm. The crowd were dancing all around the racket, at one point one lucky punter found themselves clinging to the lighting rig for dear life.

Supports on the night were local garage-pop brats Thigh Master, frown-rockers Sewers, Sydney’s electro/experimental heroine Lucy Cliché and living-room rave band Four Door.

Live @ The Underdog, Feb 8 2014
Recorded by Joshua Watson & Andrew Mclellan.
Mixed by Dusty Anastassiou.

Airing details: Originally via Zed Digital, 8-9pm, Friday 14 February 2014.
Show production and engineering: Joshua Watson.

Live Delay - Ep 57 - Blank Realm

Deaf Wish:

Starting in 2007 in MELBOURNE, Deaf Wish have been making flat out rock and roll noise that straddles the fine line between melody and chaos. Their intense sound is backed up by a ferocious live show that has seen them tour all over the world. The heart of Deaf Wish’s sound lies in their philosophy; Keep it loud and keep it simple. To further strengthen their rep as a hard hitting rock n roll group they have released one EP and one Album through legendary Seattle Label Sub Pop. 

Recorded at PBS Fm Studios, Melbourne, 2nd February 2016.
Recorded & mixed by Alicia Saye and Paul Maybury.
Mastered by Paul Maybury.


Deep Heat:

Deep Heat began in 2010 with two bassists who wanted to play guitar, and a guitarist who wanted to play bass. Their frantic punk rock sound is topped off with three shouting vocalists that creates a kind of chaos that could cave the walls in at any moment while you shout along with them.

Recorded at PBS Fm Studios, Melbourne, 2nd February 2016.
Recorded & mixed by Alicia Saye and Paul Maybury.
Mastered by Paul Maybury.


Bearhug:

Known for their hazy, slacker indie-rock vibes, Sydney band, Bearhug has a knack for infusing a sometimes carefree, sometimes agitated but always nostalgic sound into their music. Driven by walls of guitar hooks, noodling melodies, and bare-bones drums that careen under laidback vocals, the band captures that “hair-in-the-face” adolescence spirit that aligns them to 90s stalwarts Dinosaur Jr., Sonic Youth, and Screamfeeder.

Recorded at Newtown Social Club, Sydney on the 18th of September, 2014.
Recorded by Hugh Fasher and Harvey O’Sullivan.
Mixed by Harvey O’Sullivan.

Airing details: Originally via Zed Digital, 7-8pm, Sunday 27th March 2016.
Show production and engineering: Branko Cosic.

Babaganouj:

Starting in 2011, Babaganouj have become an absolute songwriting powerhouse in the last 5 years releasing too many singles and EP’s to name, as well as touring the east coast more times than we can keep track of. Their garage pop sound is always dripping with the glowing sunbeams you can expect from a Brisbane band, but what makes them unique is songwriting and vocal duties are shared equally between the three members Harriette Pilbeam, Ruby McGregor, and Charles Sale. 

They’ve even taken the extra step in this direction by recording three separate EP’s for release this year, with each one written solely by one member. And although they may share the songwriting duties, their songs are always catchy, upbeat, and there to keep the good times rolling.

Recorded live at The Foundry in Brisbane on the 20th of March, 2015.
Recorded & mixed by Tim Roberts.


The Goon Sax:

Like their name would probably indicate, The Goon Sax are a teenage trio who write songs about being an awkward adolescent, while still being that awkward adolescent. Their songs cover everything from home haircuts, ice cream, and not being able to work at target. Put simply, they have found a way to turn the mundane pieces of growing up in suburbia and write catchy, jangly indie pop songs about it.  Their debut album ‘Up to Anything’, which came out on the Chapter Music label in March 2016, has seen them tour nationally and internationally, and even scored great reviews from international tastemaker publications Pitchfork and NME.

Recorded live at The Woolly Mammoth in Brisbane on the 25th of June, 2016.
Recorded and mixed by Branko Cosic.

Airing details: Originally via Zed Digital, 7-8pm, Sunday 11th September 2016.
Show production and engineering: Branko Cosic.
