For a While

For a While (feat. Jess Williamson)

The 'anthemic' track odes to the distress that follows 'mixed-signals' within 'love' and relationships. Captured through the passionate, angsty instrumentals and moody vocals of the quintet.

Hush Puppy’s debut single, “Too Cold” – recorded/mixed by Dave Parkin out of, BlackBird Sound Studio. With mastering by Brian Lucey of, Magic Garden Mastering.

Too Cold

Fortitude Valley channel Weezer’s Blue Album for their latest single Baby, I’m Afraid. 

“This is a break up song.  It’s two people feeling that the vibe is off, but not communicating.
It’s about feeling insecure, over analysing little things and assuming the worst rather than actually speaking to the other person.”

Fortitude Valley tear through three minutes of scorching rock with crunchy riffs and indelible hooks, harnessing their vibrant slacker-pop to dissect a stalling relationship.

Fortitude Valley is the new outlet for the songwriting talents of Durham based Brisbanite Laura Kovic.

Having spent the majority of her musical career playing keyboards in other people’s bands, bringing their songs to life with a melodic flourish, it was about time for Laura K to find an outlet for her songs: awkward power-pop that’s bound to appeal to fans of The Beths, Pixies or The Weakerthans. 

She’s assembled quite the band too: Martha’s Daniel Ellis on lead guitar and Nathan Stephens Griffin on drums, and Night Flowers’ Greg Ullyart on bass.

Fortitude Valley is the heart of Brisbane’s music scene and it's also where Laura first started playing in bands before moving to the UK in 2010.  It was a place that objectively felt mythical, a suburb with a special meaning, looking back from the other side of the world and many years later. 

Fortitude Valley release their debut full length album at the end of the summer 2021.

Reaction to recent single Cassini:
“infectious indie pop gems that would sidle up nicely alongside Joanna Gruesome, Lisa Prank, or Colleen Green” Raven Sings The Blues
“the band set the sad tale of lost space hardware to a surprisingly fiery slice of power-pop, with the Pavement-like lurch of the rhythm section, contrasted by the rambunctious assault of the twin-guitars, and Laura’s vocal tumble of lyrical gems” For The Rabbits

LYRICS
Panic stations, it feels like vertigo
Might be misreading it but even so
Did you ever notice that idea start to grow?
Misinformation on the radio

I don't like it but you reap what you sow
So misleading with that puppet show
My advice is to forget what you're told
Shout and kick and scream until our blood runs cold

Nothing to prove nothing to lose
And if you take that like you're on the outside looking in

Give me something with meaning
And I will show you something to believe in
But if you just try and deceive me or mislead me
You better run before the claws come out

Hazy illusions are clouding up the sky
All those visions leave you asking why
My intention is to live and let live
Give everything you've got till you've got nothing to give

Nothing to prove nothing to lose
And if you take that like you're on the outside looking in

Give me something with meaning
And I will show you something to believe in

But if you just try and deceive me all the lies that you hear blurring out your TV
It is your mission to heal division so go and rally all the people who will listen

Panic Stations

A Place to Bury Strangers dive headfirst into suffering on the dark and explosive “I’m Hurt,” the third single from the upcoming See Through You LP. Stark electronic kick drums and mangled guitars serge over a tense bassline that pulses throughout this anguished industrial dirge. Ackermann lays his bones out bare and invites us all to come to inspect the wounds. “I’m Hurt” is an anthem to the malnourished and disenfranchised children of rock n roll whose hurt is in need of healing.   

“I’m Hurt” is out January 18, 2022. See Through You LP to follow on February 4, 2022—only on Dedstrange.
