Russell Haswell at MONA FOMA

 Russell Haswell performed a great set of brutal closed and/or bent circuit noise and loudly played whistle on Saturday afternoon at MOFO. Awesome set. He kinda smashed his hand open while doing it too. Blood did flow, and minds were blown.

Adalita recording All Day Venus

Adalita has just released her second solo album All Day Venus and is currently kicking around the country playing shows to launch it. Great album, and her Melbourne show with her touring band slayed. 

Here's some photos taken back in March at Birdland Studios while on a break while recording the album.

King Gizzard And The Lizard Wizard

Here's a bunch of photos I've got kicking around that I've taken of King Gizzard And The Lizard Wizard this year. Turns out that they just won a couple of worthy awards at the Independent Music Awards. Top work lads!

Dumb Numbers play Yah Yahs

Adam Harding flew into Melbourne for a handful of shows the other weekend with his new outfit, Dumb Numbers. Dumb Numbers consists of Adam Harding, Bonnie Mercer (Dead River, Grey Daturas, Paul Kidney Experience, etc), Steve Patrick (Useless Children, etc), and Murph (Dinosaur Jr). 

There's an album to be released, hopefully soon. In the meantime Dumb Numbers has a track on this very special 7" ep thing with Lou Barlow, David Yow and Thurston Moore!
