The start of RBTSRS isn't there cos Nick was busy aimlessly wandering around the Lucky (I forgive you Nick). More live sound posts can be found here.

Brassskulls – Melbourne Tour This Weekend

Posted by Matt
BRASSSKULLS are the Newcastle threesome of Nicholas French, Michael Liestins, and Mitchell Brennan. Using guitars, broken drums, radios, modified turntables, and a tangled mess of electronics, they create a nightmarish wall of dense sound and psychedelic noise that is easier to listen to than describe.
Fresh from a spot on at the Winter Tragic Festival in The Blue Mountains, BRASSSKULLS are heading to Melbourne this weekend to launch their new cassette, with shows at Forepaw Gallery and Glitch Bar.

Order the cassette from SENSITIVE MAN as well as a reissue of out-of-print material on MONSTERA DELICIOSA.

Winter Tragic Festival – Blue Mountains

Posted by Matt
It's all just Stardust + Breakdance The Dawn present
WINTER TRAGIC 2008
All day music + film festival
The festival is featuring some of NSW's most prominent noise and sound artists. It goes over the whole day at Medlow Bath (basically the Blue Mountains) on the Great Western Highway. Includes music trading, DJ's, Vegan food and everything else found at a noise festival.

$12 Entry. 11am start.

Some of the artists I recommend checking out on the day include the Night of Love, Brasskulls and Castings. But I'm sure there are some real gems of bands in there that I am yet to hear and see live.
