Current Listening

The Dead Sea – Nulla Desiderata

This band generate some of the most sophisticated post-rocky/ambient/instrumental/whatever stuff in the country (at least that I’m aware of). Not only do these dudes hail from Sydney, but from what I can ascertain they at some point resided in The Blue Mountains, which in a sparse roundabout kinda way, brings a degree of credibility to this place that is just awesome.

Darondo – Didn’t I

Yet another example of an artist that was sorely under appreciated during their time. Rumored to, during his tenure as musician, have made a living from pimping, William Pulliam, aka Darondo, has since been involved in such career pursuits as physical therapy, cable tv presenting & all round tough guy adventurer. Respect.

A Winged Victory For The Sullen – Steep Hills of Vicodin Tears

More beautiful music from Adam Wiltzie, this time under his A Winged Victory For The Sullen moniker, carrying on with the stratospherical legacy established through his work Stars Of The Lid.
