Half Machine from the Sun: The Lost Tracks from '79-'80 - Chrome (King of Spades Records)

Details: By Robert Brokenmouth; 16 March 2014; Hits: 7524

half-machine Naming - what we call things - is important. Especially in music, where a few thoughtless letters conjure up a musical dead end, a drab boring vista of endless garbage. I’m sure we all have our favourite term to hate.

Hikikomori - HITS (Conquest of Noise)

Details: By Edwin Garland and The Barman; 16 March 2014; Hits: 9244

hikkomori

HITS are an important band: for those who really care about Australia Rock, the history, the character and breathtaking urgency that some bands at certain times can produce.

Not My Girl/Goose Step b/w In My Jungle - Chinese Burns (Swashbuckling Hobo)

Details: By The Barman; 09 March 2014; Hits: 6544

cb-notmygirl “Not My Girl” shakes like “96 Tears” free-falling out of a 30th-floor building. It takes just as long to hit the bottom. I like it best of the three tunes on this 45.

Everybody b/w Executive - The Dangermen (Swashbucklling Hobo)

Details: By The Barman; 09 March 2014; Hits: 6691

executive No-nonsense gutter rock’s attack on society’s elites gets a little dirtier with this sterling 45 from Brisbane.

The Mountain b/w Supernatural - Stink Bugs (Swashbuckling Hobo)

Details: By The Barman; 09 March 2014; Hits: 7739

stink-bugs-mountain Here’s a freaked-out, lo-fi, mindfuck of a 45 that does Brisbane’s reputation for sonic mayhem no harm. Ex-Hekawis and Shutdown ’66 bassist James Pierce leads the trio on this monstrous single.

Like Elephants 2 - The Movements (Crusher Records)

Details: By The Barman; 08 March 2014; Hits: 6659

like-elephants2 Barely six months have elapsed and that’s time enough for The Movements to release the second part of their “Like Elephants” psychedelic opus. It’s arguably more, um, psychedelified, than “Like Elephants 1” and thus demanding closer attention, but it’s no less less engaging.

Ed Kuepper goes mail order for new LP

Details: By The Barman; 04 March 2014; Hits: 7690

mailorder The King of Reinvention, Ed Kuepper, is at it again. The ex-Saints and sometime Laughing Clowns guitarist recorded his first truly solo album in the mid-‘90s – just himself myself and a couple of acoustic guitars.

Open Your Eyes to Smoke - Nunchukka Superfly (Citadel Records)

Details: By The Barman; 02 March 2014; Hits: 9438

open-your-ears It’s their fifth studio album and it’s tempting to say the lines have become blurred between Nunchukka Superfly and the Hard-Ons, from which two of its three members are drawn. That’d be convenient but also wrong.
