New tracks coming up from Down Under
Little Indie casts its ears and eyes over more of the latest sounds to emerge recently from Down Under.
PLANET - ACHING DREAM
Sydney indie rockers share atmospheric new single ahead of their debut EP, expected before end of 2017. With bass and vocals recorded in frontman Matty Took's bedroom, it builds from a slow, melancholic start to bring in some glorious psych guitar and Britpop styled vocals.
CREPES - FOUR YEARS TIME
Melbourne-via-Ballarat quartet are gearing up to release their debut album ‘Channel Four’ (out via Spunk!/Deaf Ambitions on December 3), and from it comes this meandering, silky synth infused track filled with shimmering beats, neat guitar riffs, and nicely tuned harmonies.
THE BETHS - GREAT NO ONE
Catchy guitar-pop from the Auckland quartet, who include elements of 90s alt-pop into their bouncy melodies via influences such as Veruca Salt. Vocalist Elizabeth Stokes describes it as about "the voice in your head (my head) saying 'it's good, stop wasting time' and then 'it's garbage, stop trying', and trying to balance on that see-saw."
TWO CARTOONS - HOSPITALITY
Dunedin duo Bradley Craig and Isaac McFarlane - the two cartoons of the title - have put out this taster from forthcoming EP 'The Great British Hangover', released November 18. An infectioudly upbeat vibe with a 70s rock essence as lyrically they detail what it’s like to work in the service industry.
RAISED AS WOLVES - DON'T WE ALL
Wollongong/Sydney punk trio follow their 2016 EP 'Phonebook For Hokkaido' with new punchy single which highlights their pop-punk rawness with wiry guitar hooks, fiery beats and an astringent vocal.
GOOD BOY - FISHING WITH A SHOTGUN
The Brisbane garage punks are set to release double EP 'Shirk Life' (side A), split with their 2016 EP 'Plum' (side B) on November 10 via Barely Dressed Records, and this first single, which fires venom at Australia's right-wing politics through vocalist Rian King’s hard-hitting lyrics, was produced and engineered by Tim Fitz (Middle Kids).
