Catch Fire presents:
I'd like to express my appreciation for Jules' innovation here. Not only for putting on shows at the Rosemount Bowl, but for advertising on match boxes. This should be a good show, come check out Rabbit Island, Chris Cobilis and my expensive new PA!Facebook eventAlso, if you don't have plans tonight, Tuesday (08.09.09) head down to Mojos for another one of Jules' matchbox promoted shows featuring Giant Tortoise, The Silents and Horny Pony.

New Australian music website UHH launched recently. They sure had a dope holder page, but the new content is pretty good too I guess..
Camryn Rothenbury talks about Arse Unravel, Mental Pz, Craig M, Meupe and Perth house parties here and there is a well thought out article by Matt Giles which discusses the effects of internet downloading on the Australian music industry here.

On Thursday and Friday night Carbuncle played shows in Fremantle...
We were generally happy with both shows. Huge thanks to for coming all the way from Japan to play some truly rad jams to a room predominantly full of rude, loud assholes. Mojos crowds are fucked.

Last night I checked out some of the Kurb Performance Perennial #4. Only caught the last few performances, this one was the loudest.
Amps and basses were stacked in the centre of the space and turned on, the vibration from the amps stimulated the bass stings and caused a continuous feedback, the sound wasn't at all offensive though, it was a really warm, pleasant result. The reverberations from the decrepit Kurb ceiling really made the work.___________
I've had this set of Craig's from Tanya's party last week on heavy rotation.
