NO NO FEST
The first ever No No Fest is happening this Saturday 27 July at the Black Box Theatre in Nambour. The fest is presented by No No Records, the brainchild of the inimitable Sydney Kerley, musician, fan, promoter, organiser and no doubt one of the hardest-working lads in the local music scene. We hit up Kerley […]
AGLO
We caught up with the mastermind behind AGLO, Mr Aaron Osbourne, to discuss his favourite Star Trek moments and what kind of extraterrestrial madness the punters can expect this Sunday.
VERMINATE
Verminate play in Nambour this Sunday with Diploid (Naarm/Melb), AGLO (Naarm/Melb) and Street Suffer (Meanjin/Bris). I asked them some questions.

STREET SUFFER

GUTPUNCH
There’s a new band name on the bill for this Sunday’s gig at the Black Box Theatre (7 July), however you may recognise the band members from much-loved Sunshine Coast garage band Ballpoint. After farewelling bassist Naomi, the band has reconvened as a two-piece and will debut under the new name GUTPUNCH, supporting Swab (Naarm), […]
SWAB
Naarm hardcore punks Swab are making their way to Queensland for the first time and will be putting on an all-ages extravaganza at the Black Box Theatre Sunday 7 July with Meanjin’s Knee and Not Telling, along with locals Gutpunch (formerly Ballpoint) and Flogg. The newly-minted Queens of the Pit took the reins for this […]
Tonight in Noosa @angstrom_space is throwing an event. It got @electricprawns_2 on the line-up who are sort of devo/coneheady and have Members of Canetoad, from Rockhampton. We`ll have afew boxes of records for sale at the show.
Get along and get amongst it.
T-shirts out this Saturday. Online on Sunday.
This Saturday at the Black Box is No No Fest. If you`ve been to any of the recent gigs in Namba you`ve probably meet Kerley, the mastermind behind No No Records. He`s super active, with a real butt ton of shows and releases coming up. No No Fest is a showcase of the stuff he`s been working on. Its a bunch of bands but @trashvideoarchives is showng some movies aswell. We pinned him down to ask some questions. Hit the Bad Habit blog to read and get tickets.
5 Lps with Minimal text on the front cover. And a tape.
New @blindgirlss lp is here. Gold Coast screamo. It`s been a joy watching this band go from strength to strength and conquer the world. I don`t really need to spruik this record. You already know if you need it because you`ve seen them destroy stages and floor shows.
New @diploidnoise tape plus their 4 lps. Awkward and intense grindcore made by outsiders. Really, one of the best Australian bands.
These are online and instore now.
Record of the week alert
Hog - True Romance 7" on Shipping Steel Records.
"Hardcore Kids" playing "Dirty Rock n Roll" can go two ways. It sucks because the people playing it aren`t raw dog idiots who`ve set off the fire hose and been kicked out of numerous shows for beer theft and general punisher antics. They navigate social hierarchies with an eye of climbing some ladder made of dicks.
Or it rules because the people playing it are fucking idiots who continually sabotage their life by ruining everything around them. And they play music with the swagger and loose agressionn of someone who has failure in their DNA.
This record feels like the later. It has that punk aggression that`s about to fall apart cause they are playing like real maniacs of rock.
Like the best bands to play this style, Annihilation Time / Lecherous Gaze even Moterhead or maybe closer to Tank or Power etc.
They are from New Zealand. That mysterious land to the south of Australia, or maybe its east? Nobody knows.
Get it instore or on the webstore.
Gaoled coming to lay waste to the Queens Land.
