a shot from the nunnery backpackers, and footage from a rental we stayed at with these peeps, awesome folks, fascination with ben lee notwithstanding.

It's such a good album, everything is perfect about it, the cover art, the album name and of course the songs especially these two and others like Fingers & toes, Sushi bowl, hole of blood maybe only the last few tracks fizzle out a little.
I like a lot of their other albums (the next three) but for me there is something about this albums sound and lyrics that just click.

actually only for track 1, dial back to normal speed, or maybe 1.25 after the first track, haha)
This is also an Aussie classic, love these guys.
take the bairn and the missus on the 9th @indo

(bluebottle kiss is a bands' band, musos seem to love 'em)
I use to go up town and see bands pretty much every second week, but these days i just cant be farked, the city drives me crazy.,
Missus just saw/told me Tumbleweed are playing in Melb in Jan too but i will probably skip both gigs, ive just seen them both enough times.
Will probably make the effort to go see Superchunk next month though, only seen them a few times and not since the 90s, at a good venue too.
yarp, I've got friends in balnarring, and in hastings and flinders, and they all feel the same way, I can only try to imagine how that jaunt would feel from where you are.. my mates in brunswick don't even rate the city.. 'what's there?' they say. why would you go into the city? funny how city adjacent people don't do the city.
probably you'd treat it like when I go to Melbs, like a city visit. you should do a couple nights like it's a holiday. epic fun when you do that, I have a place that @blackers recommended, where I get mussels at brunch, watch nice punk across the street. used to stay at tyrian apartments up brunswick st too, that's a nice spot, supermarket with a cheap coffee machine next door, good venues next to, and over in collingwood..
where's the pope, gov, have fun tonight being audience murf and mini murf
anyone's teen kids getting on the tyler the creator impending concert train?
the clips @JF has posted seem awesome to me, and his early work seemed real.
I kinda get a childish gambino/ donald glover pushing cultural stuff vibe which seems cool..
anyone know stuff..?
In Torquay tomorrow. An old fav' band. Might go if I can summon the energy.

In the 90s i loved going into the city as it was the only place you could get good music or buy tickets for upcoming International band gigs. (like Dino Jr, Sonic Youth etc)
I had like this routine get off the train then first stop was always Aug-go go then onto places like Gaslight records, then catch the train out to Parahan to Greville street and Rare records, few other odd stops, even treat myself to a big mac for $2.45 (that was before my boycott Macas because it was a big business phase)
Same deal when i did east coast road trips id hit the city in Sydney just to go to Waterfront or Red Eye and in Brisbane, Rocking horse.
Now most(not all) of those record stores are gone, and you can get anything you want online new or second hand.
Kinda sad, it was always a real buzz going into all the record stores seeing what new stuff was out and searching through all the albums and often getting albums with bonus disc or signed copies, and getting all the street press.
Yeah we have done that before, getting an apartment or hotel room and staying down in the city for the weekend, missus loves it just for the Indo food.
Not a big Blue bottle Kiss fan, but they have a few decent songs worth throwing in spotify mixes.
Pitchfork didn't rate it, but Albini and Ty Segal produced. Fun.
And one for the shouters
feel like this was @stunet.. with a connect to iron maiden..?
as suggested, an obvious follow-up
.
Goodnight, you princes of Byron, you kings of New England
100 percent my favourite song to play on guitar.
Especially the lead.
https://m.
that's just 90s sth aussie, bloke..
nummies plus blood sucking freaks..
(dude lays a mean turd, too. Always cleans up thoroughly though.)
(^ mark of cain fans might like pete the stud's wordplay here.)

&pp=ygUPdG9lIHRvIHRvZSBiYW5k very east coast @JF.. where are you based? I held a feller's head in a urinal telling him to be a nicer man at a 'sick of it all' gig around alternative nation time, 1995 the machine claims, brunswick st, maybe at the evelyn, (mr floppy at the punters club the following night), wasn't you that smashed a VB subbie on my head when i came out from the bog was it?
Love Toe to Toe JF. Had Threats and Facts on repeat for a good part of the mid 90s.
Was one of the Webber boys in the lineup if i remember.
Fark yeah up the Numbies Basesix.
Pretty much the first band i saw live as an underage grom. Still rate them as one of my all time favourite bands. Soft Cock, Patawalonga, Cocopops, etc. All time classics and a shame they didn't get 'discovered' because they should be the anthem to every surf flick ever made. So much energy and driving guitars.
Also got my nose smashed in by a pack of tuna fishermen from Pt Lincoln at one of their Adelaide Uni shows. My crime, being too pissed and trying to stand up for some chicks they were bashing about. Unfortunately my reflexes let me down that night! Lesson learnt. Legless fighting never pays. Was lucky though, due to the intoxication i happily stood in front of the mirror in the toilets and rearranged my nose back to how i thought it should look. A few crunches and cracks and given the circumstances, i think i got it pretty straight...til the next break(s). That was the only fighting one though.
But yeah the mighty Numbskulls. A staple of Adelaides punk scene in the 90s.
Got to play on their set for their final show...before they returned again.
And the Mark of Cain. Got to play on their set, for our first ever pub show w T.Es at the Crown in front of 1000 odd punters.
That was a little bit of a buzz for a grom.
geez you are cool @SR,
you have a REALLY good sense of 4 or 5 excellent places...
like, a really good understanding of the place..
I feel a liitle bit cool, I didn't get to the gig in the end,
gave my tix to murf from the nummies and his 12 yo,
first gig the little feller went to,
that didn't feature his old man. lovely stuff...
(I'm sure you do too @indo, )
to us nobodys on swellnet, (possibly speaking out of turn here),
@indo and @bluediamond are 2 sides of a very satisfying coin..
like @burleigh and @roadkill...
haha nah. I just got to hang around cool people @basesix.
So cool u gave your tix to Murf and his grom.
He's a bloody legend. SCBR too.
Alright, time for some discussion on what yr all listening too. My iTunes inventory is getting a little stale so I'm up for some inspiration.
Currently loving The Drones' album "Havilah".. incredible songwriting and some of the best recorded guitars and drum I've heard in a long time. I'm a little late to the party with this album but it's on high rotation at the moment and will probably stay there a while. I've seen these guys live once (Fowlers, Adelaide) and fortunately they're incredible on stage too. Can't wait to see them again.
