I'm just surprised with the freight trains going right through the middle, a drunk bogan hasn't attempted to hitch a ride.
Yeah, I'm surprised that didn't happen when Violent Soho played. God they attracted the worst fans.
Went to a little festival here in Wollongong last month headlined by them and the same was true.
that sounds horrible, i've been to festivals like that and it really makes it hard to have a good time. i don't get why places with warmer climates (those where the winters are milder) don't do what the real south™ does here, like in texas and florida and have most of their festivals in autumn and winter.Not sure what other Laneways are like but the Footscray one is particularly horrible, thanks to the narrow stages and all the fucking asphalt with no shade on a hot day.
i'm gonna have to pull a superthread™ and not multipost because i can't figure out how to do it on the most recent version of the app. oh well.Seriously, I don't know why summer is festival season here. Autumn can stay very hot until quite late too (March is the worst fucking month). Festivals really ought to be in spring. Some October festival action would be great.
At least Splendour's in July and always coughs up good sideshows for those of us who sure as shit aren't going to Byron fucking Bay.
interesting read. much of this i knew, but i hadn't thought about if some songs might ring hollow or even seem hypocritical now. sunshine of they release new music (i forget if they are), it'll be interesting to see if it still has the fire off their original stuff.
also my revisit of free your mind (the album, not the forum lol) wasn't as bad as i remembered. the first half is really strong, actually. it lost me after the second half though, huge drop in quality and i couldn't even finish it.
i remember zonoscope also being uneven. basically i like their really dancey stuff (lights and music, saturdays, corner of the sky, footsteps) and their other songs always lose me.
agreed. i ended up listening to it a couple times at work since my post, and the beginning half or so is really strong. i'm not a fan of their slower stuff, i listen to them to dance tbh.I revisited Free Your Mind yesterday, and was pleasantly surprised. It's really good. Dips away a little in the middle, but the Eurodance tinged Meet Me In The House of Love and Footsteps are such a lot of fun. Really keen to check them live again.
I assume this page exists fro King Gizzard
I want to listen to their new record, because I literally live in Brunswick East now, but the love for them is a bit silly.
