Track Of The Day :: Full Collapse - 15th

Words: Linn Branson 

Oh, what wondrous beings are the Australians! I could personally sit and listen to nothing else but music from our Antipodean cousins all day, and every day. And this little beauty by Tasmania's Full Collapse is a prime example of how good, diverse and guaranteed for repeat plays are the sounds emerging from Down Under.

'15th' is actually a late 2019 release from the four-piece - all still in their teens - but hell, so we're late here, but this song is a dream whenever you might happen across it - and you should. From a DMAs-like start with acoustic guitar and Cam Illingworth's heart-aching vocals, to long electric instrumental breaks, to robust abandonment, it is just really too damn fine. It's a little early in their career to pick out a jewel, but this could easily be theirs.



Check out their Facebook for another acoustic track on video, 'Unfamiliar'. And as a double treat, watch the visuals further down for first single 'Future You', released in November 2018, when young frontman Illingworth was still only about 15 or 16 years old.
