The Belair Lip Bombs
THE BELAIR LIP BOMBS The Belair Lip Bombs might be Australia’s best-kept secret. But it won’t stay that way for long.

But this is a completely new body of work, not a “part two,” a rehash or a re-do. If his initial impulse was to poke fun at the apparatus that divides […]

Pinhead Gunpowder
PINHEAD GUNPOWDER “Pinhead Gunpowder started writing songs in 1990 and made our first 7-inch the following spring. Nearly every year since, we’ve met up to play. Some years we recorded-five albums and eleven EPs-and some years we played shows. But since 2010, we’ve been playing just for ourselves, something bands forget to do. Rather than […]
