The Secret Machines – Now Here is Nowhere (CD)

I had heard The Secret Machines have their name dropped a number of time in the indielitist circles of acquaintances I’ve met, but hadn’t gotten a chance to listen to them until I put on this disc. Very open, spacey guitars open the first track, “First Wave Intact”, and while the track nearly ends at the nine-minute mark, The Secret Machines are no more the worse for wear. The drums…

Secret Lives of the Freemasons – This Was Built to Make You Dance (CD)

Considering that the title of this album has “dance” in it, I was expecting something completely different than the emo-rock that was provided by Secret Lives of the Freemasons. This is not to say that I was disappointed; rather, it was doubly shocking (first, that it wasn’t a dance-punk type of band and second, that “Make Like A Door and Shut Up” was so damn good.) Even if some of…

Secret Apollo – Homemade Time Machine (CD)

The disc’s first track is odd to say the least. The first half of this seventy second track starts off with a very “Children of the Corn” type of chanting, before Secret Apollo moves into a seventies rock type of sound. “Daydreamers Anonymous” brings a few different styles to the repertoire of Secret Apollo. In fact, the only thing that seems to be a constant with Secret Apollo has to…

Cloud Control Release “There’s Nothing In The Water We Can’t Fight” Single & Video Bliss Release Out On Turnout November 22nd With Bonus EP

Hey, we’re Cloud Control. We met in High School. We grew up in the Blue Mountains and we always get asked about that. It might influence us a little bit being from there, maybe it just makes us more chilled. We got together to enter a band competition and we weren’t that great but somehow there was always something that kept us going – community radio, local clubs, friends we…

Secret Agent Bill – S/T (CD)

The music that one encounters on Secret Agent Bill’s disc is hard-hitting, to say the least. The swirling guitars may not be the most exciting, but the political message that winds its way throughout the track is something to behold. The harmony that the band creates during “Gentrify or Die” just through the vocals present is topped off by the ever-changing time signatures on the track. “Thought I Knew” mixes…

Screwjack, formerly The Freedumb Fries, formerly The Freedom Fries, and even before that S.B.C., have been at the top of their game since their first EP, Dicktad, came out in 2001. While I can go back and listen to it now and see the solid songwriting for what it is on these early tracks, there is no denying that the members of Screwjack have came a long way in originality,…
