Here are 9 Australian release picks
We’re officially a third of the way through 2023 – celebrate with ripping new tunes from Bad//Dreems, The Murlocs, Fascinator, Aya Yves and more
Australia may be cooling down for a bit, but our musical talent sure as hell aren’t. This month, we’ll be properly introduced to The Barnestormers – the supergroup of Cold Chisel‘s Jimmy Barnes, The Living End’s Chris Cheney and a veritable who’s who of rockabilly virtuosos – and reacquainted with our old friends Alex Lahey and Bad//Dreems (both of whom are dropping their first albums since 2019).
We’ll also hear new full-length efforts from Naretha Williams, Fascinator and The Murlocs, plus EPs from Aya Yves, LOSER and NME 100 alumnus Surusinghe. One notable release, too, is Milk! Records’ first volume of official remixes, where songs by the likes of Courtney Barnett, Jen Cloher, Hachiku and Mess Esque are given trancey re-dos by stalwarts like Banoffee, California Girls, The Merindas and Simona Castricum.
There’s plenty more for us to explore in May, but for now, let’s explore these 10 ripping new records. Read More..
