Big Bliss - "Sleep Paralysis"

An Object In Motion

Vanity (feat. Rachel Goswell)

A heady balm of smeared guitar textures and sharp pop sensibilities.”
STEREOGUM

“It’s hard not to crush on the extensive, encircling sound of Melbourne’s Flyying Colours”
NO FEAR OF POP

“Chances are that this tune from Flyying Colours is going to make a fan out of you…these guys are belting out a noise that instantly pricks people’s ears up.”
SOUNDS BETTER WITH REVERB

After two critically acclaimed EPs, Flyying Colours are set to release their debut album ‘Mindfullness’ in September on Club AC30.  Residing in a dream-world that sits somewhere between psych, indie, grunge and shoegaze, the Australian band’s beautifully dynamic new offering showcases their talent for uniting a delicate vocal melody with a satisfying thick wall of abrasive drums and guitars.

Leading track and first single It’s Tomorrow Now further stirs the melting pot. Opening with a chaotic looped squeal, the knockout punch of the frenzied opening riff and steady, driving drums sets the bar high for the nine tracks that are to follow.

Formed in 2011 in Brunswick by school friends Brodie and Gemma, they played every show they could week in, week out in Melbourne’s bustling inner north to finesse their sound. Debut single Wavygravy (2013) perfectly set the scene by truly capturing the unhinged essence of a Flyying Colours show. But the recent addition of the impressive abilities of Andy on drums and Mel on bass have taken that unhingedness to undreamt-of-levels, making the beautiful trip of their live show, something to truly marvel.

The Melbourne quartet have since spent the last year touring with label mates pinkshinyultrablast as well as Johnny Marr, Brian Jonestown Massacre and A Place To Bury Strangers, whilst singles Not Today and Running Late taken from their second EP, ‘ROYGBIV’ garnered heavy rotation on enormous radio stations worldwide, including KEXP, BBC6, JJJ, RRR and FBi. They hit #47 on the CMJ Radio top 200 in the states, sat in the UK’s Amazing Radio charts for weeks, and were championed by Clash, 405, Stereogum, Wonderland and NME. With the September release of ‘Mindfullness’, 2016 seems set to be just as busy.

The Willo/Energy 12" - MP3s

Toy - The Willo

Our first full length album. A multi-layered and overwhelming soundscape, where influences from a variety directions are welded together into a whole. A common theme on the album is ambitious songwriting on the one hand, and the brothers' vocal harmonies on the other.

A Pastel Sky

Father Forgets

I don’t want to
be like you do
believe in truth
others put through

I don’t want to
be the perfect
spitting afterimage
of you

Father forgets!
Father forgets!

I don’t hope to
cling onto you
I need something
strong to break through

I don’t know why
you don’t know me
you should know me
more than I do

You have been here
I have been here
criticizing
one another

I don’t want to
hear your voice in
my subconscious
How could you say?

Chorus:
Whatever you do
Whatever you say
Whatever you crave
Forever you fail

(Once I did bad and that I heard ever)
(Twice I did good but that I heard never)

One Day

Honey

Debris

Daylighter

The band was created in 2019 in Athens, Greece. “It was a matter of life and death, to write songs about the way we felt. Sometimes, when you are in your late 20’s - mid 30’s and life starts to hit you with the rawness of the “real world” you feel so alone, you are about to break. We are just that, oppressed musical souls that never let go of their art, to endure the boss that fired them for no apparent reason, the friends who turned their back on them, the ships that sailed; the realization that whether you are the ship or the shore, does not really make a difference on how depressing a separation can be. We made music, to survive.  And now we have decided to stop keeping it to ourselves.”

Initially three, with George Piaditis on lead guitars, Dean Jola on drums/ vocals and Joseph Powell on lead vocals and guitars, Youth Valley entered the studio to record their first three studio tracks in the form of an EP. George left the band soon after that, Joseph and Dean continued. Thus, Youth Valley EP and the music video for the song ‘Young Sad Lovers’ broke the surface in 2020.

Youth Valley’s style revolves around genres like new wave, post punk and 80’s indie rock like ‘the Cure’ or ‘the Smiths’ dressed in a more contemporary shoegaze guitar-based coat, inspired by bands like ‘DIIV’.
