We Fell To Earth’s debut album contains grains of that desert night ambiance. Richard and Wendy’s way with harmonies is almost ecclesiastical on the likes of Lights Out, but tasty electronics are never far away, notably on the pulsing, bleeping Sovereign.
David Bowie / Heroes Dreamy. This song puts me in a good mood. I love to blast it and chase the animals around the house. They like it too. I love the desperation in his voice in the last verse. It makes me wish I was him.
Melbourne-based rock band, Children Collide, are one of the hottest emerging artists of 2008. They’ve just been added to the Big Day Out bill, and currently have the featured album on Australian radio youth network, Triple J, with their recently released debut long-player, The Long Now.
Sonic Youth / Schizophrenia The opening track off what is probably my favorite Sonic Youth album, Sister. I used to play this song in bands when I was fourteen. That was a while ago now and it still holds exactly the same weight with me as it did back then. A true classic.
