DICK NASTY

                                                                                                                            Kill The Music
One of the most manic and aggressive bands I’ve ever heard. Throwing every songwriting convention out the window, Dick Nasty makes not music, but slightly arranged noise. Despite their total violent and brutal sound, they are able to inject a sense of humour into what could otherwise be music you could beat yourself to death to. Names of songs such as “His Music Doesn't Do Much For Me But Paul Weller Was Great In Robocop 2” show the seriousness of Dick Nasty’s musical efforts;, obviously not expecting to be winning a Grammy anytime soon. Lead singer Geordie’s drunken rants about god-only-knows what, and the lack of correct spelling, give their sound some sense- a primal, violent rage.  If any song went over 2 minutes you’d probably go tone deaf instantly.

DIRTYBIRD


                                                                                                                          LoFi Records
Dirtybird’s singer Dylan Brisco has got the voice to match the heavy noise his peachy trio punch out.  Even though his vocals sometimes become a gargle, it sure sounds the part. The song Chasin seems reminiscent of the rhythm in Custard’s song Apartment. Dirtybird are able to roll out the tunes with “fuck your ears” song sensibility and a dabble of dissonance for good measure. Nothing like a distorted guitar bend that punctures through your inner ear drum. They rock, they make noise, they make chaos and sing about god only knows what, and if they get any more edgier they’ll cut themselves. Cool sound, cool pulse. What more could you ask for.

mmmm. This Brisbane band sure has some real tasty songs. Getting a bit of the Wavves sounds, but these guys sound like they know what to do with their guitars. Opening for the likes of Powderfinger, Jet and the Temper Trap don’t come as a surprise. The song structures are exciting, and the lead guitar streams melodies under the aggressive, melancholic vocals. The Cairos sound like a homebrand buzzsaw that’s been tamed in a garage with nothing more than catchy melodies and a hint of creative flair.  Members of The Cairos left to start a new indie rock band, Last Dinosaurs
