New Video : Black Lips : Let It Grow
When is the best time to release a new video? When everyone is talking about you right? Who cares what they’re saying…as long as they’re saying something. Black Lips lead singer Jared Swilley may not have come out on the winning end in his tussle with Wavves lead singer Nathan Williams, or within all the commentary that followed, but the band’s name is still on the...
Top 100 records of 2009: 20-1
Street Chant So here is our top 20 records of 2009 list. I use the word ‘genius’ a lot on this page, but I’m not going to apologise for it. Because it all is.     =20: Todd - Riot Season Brilliant, complex and joyous ear-battering LP from Todd. A noise lasagne - layers of brutal sound served up with a special sauce of audio surprises. Plus they...

DOWNLOAD: Black Lips – Modern Art
(Photo: Zach Wolfe) The Mark Ronson-produced Arabia Mountain, out June 7 on Vice, finds Black Lips sounding a lot like the Fun House incarnation of the Stooges, but with surprising twists. With a fuzzy lead guitar playing something very close to the Phrygian scale that is so common in Arabic and Egyptian music, as well as surf-rock lyrics like “Let’s go out and find the ocean...

New Song : Black Lips ft. GZA : The Drop I Hold
(photo cred : Dickies) The Drop I Hold appears on Black Lips’ 2009 release 200 Million Thousand, but while at SXSW the gritty band teamed up with Wu-Tang’s GZA to perform the song on two different occasions. They liked the outcome so much, the unlikely pairing got together later at Werewolf Heart Studios and recorded this version. MP3 : Black Lips ft. GZA - The Drop I ...
The Daily Graboid
This week’s releases is a bit slim compared to the massive amount from last week, which i’m sure may be a relief to many. Though, if you’re looking to pick up something, you can’t go wrong with releases from Black Lips, Here We Go Magic, Clem Snide, and Laura Gibson. Also available this week is the covers compilation War Child: Heroes, which you may have heard a tune...

Laneway Festival 2010: Review
Laneway Festival February 1, 2010 Britomart Square, Auckland Last week our Melbourne friends told us that the Laneway Festival is one of the least respected festivals in Australia, we were surprised, but it meant we entered the first Auckland Laneway festival with a hint of scepticism.
