NEW VENUE!

This Issue//Welcome//Heading down the path previously stomped by Kimbra and Lorde, this week’s cover star is the next adpoted Australian female chanteuse — the super-talented soul singer Ngaiire. From a childhood in Papua New Guinea to a suburban Sydney resident, the 28-year-old has gone through a number of musical incarnations over the years including being a backup singer for Blue King Brown, a finalist on the 2004 series of Australian Idol and a collaborator for Paul Mac. Ngaiire chatted to Rip It Up about her latest venture - her brilliant solo album Lamentations - and her upcoming Adelaide show at Jive on Sat Oct 12 (p10). Also featured in this week’s mag is metalcore outfit Of Mice & Men, who were recently nominated for Best Live Band by Kerrang! magazine. The band will perform with Bring Me The Horizon on Thu Oct 10, taking time to chat to us ahead of the show (p11). On the other spectrum You Am I’s Davey Lane will be rolling into town this Fri Oct 4 with his new, gentle solo outing The Good Borne Of Bad Tymes. Read about the new EP over at p12.On the film front, this week’s culture star is German actor Daniel Brühl, who you might recognise as the lovestruck Fredrick Zoller from Quentin Tarantino’s Inglorious Basterds. Trading WW2 garb for Formula 1 gear, Brühl chatted to us about his latest role as racecar driver Niki Lauda in Rush (p20).Vroom vroom.

With a German vocalist (Marcel Gadacz) and an American drummer (Aaron Fiocca), DREAM ON, DREAMER aren’t your typical Melbourne crew. Regardless, the metalcore group have adopted Australia as their base and are approaching their second record, Loveless, with the same DIY attitude that peaked national interest back in 2011. Dream On, Dreamer are even doing shows in Tasmania, so you know they’re serious about their live performances. Grab tickets to their Adelaide UniBar show on Sat Nov 9 through OzTix.

Touring again, this time in support of their new EP All That Good Work/Blue, NAYSAYER & GILSUN will be playing a Sunday sesh at Rhino Room on Oct 6. There’s a brand new vid out for Blue, too, so make sure you set your eyeballs on that before hitting the d-floor on the weekend.

Comically Insane The stuff of nightmares: psychotic clowns who rap. Reality: Insane Clown Posse. The notorious hip hop duo were most recently in the news when the FBI officially labelled the group’s fanbase (who call themselves juggalos and juggalettes) as a gang. A slow legal process is underway to determine why the Bureau added the fans to the federal gang list with the ultimate goal of overturning the classification. Until then, however, Violent J and Shaggy 2 Dope have plans to terrify Australians this summer, arriving at the Governor Hindmarsh on Wed Dec 4. Having released the complex three-tiered album The Mighty Death Pop! last year, it’s difficult to guess what tracks from the bonus records and their extensive back catalogue will make the stage on this tour. Tickets go on sale through Moshtix this Fri Oct 4.

Aside from being totes adorbs with his (beardy) baby-face, ALEx GIBSON is an accomplished musician. From the streets of Sydney and Melbourne as a busker to The Voice as a finalist, to the release of his first album This Is Life, Gibson’s been getting up to a lot these past few years. Now’s your chance to see him live and up close: he will play at the Grace Emily on Fri Nov 7. Tickets are available through alexgibsonmusic.com.au and OzTix.

Down & DirtyLife Pilot and Statues have put together year two of DOWN & DIRTY, coming to Enigma Bar on Sat Oct 5. A “celebration of southern rock, noise-inspired, chaotic hardcore music” will give local and interstate talent a chance to flourish on stage. Earlier this year, Statues brought the mini-festival to Victoria with great success. Entry to the 18+ event is $12. For more information find Down & Dirty 2013 on Facebook.

Ngaiire

by Miranda Freeman

Quite Contrary

Having staked her place in the scene earlier this year with her shu� ing, soul-infused electro ballad Dirty Hercules, Ngaiire’s nine-tracked

follow-up Lamentations has the markings of a pop masterpiece. Rife with catchy jams and insightful lyricism, the standout element of the album here is Ngaiire’s � erce voice — something which has seen her as an Australian Idol � nalist alongside names like Ricki-Lee Coulter and Anthony Callea in 2004 and a singer for Paul Mac in 2007.

Now 28-years-old — “like they say, black don’t crack!” she laughs — perhaps the best fruit to fall from the tree is the one that ripens by itself. Growing up in Papau New Guinea with a pastor father, it was only late into her teens that she was exposed to musical genres other than reggae. Namely, jazz.

“In PNG there’s not a lot of exposure to other genres of music other than what’s being played there culturally. Reggae is a very big genre, but there’s not much else,” she begins. “I remember there was this jazz band that had come over from the States that played at my school — I’d never actually heard jazz before until then, and I immediately wondered, `What is this music?’ When I moved to Australia that was the � rst thing I wanted to do, I wanted to study jazz. I think in that

sense jazz has always been my � rst love in terms of genres of music.”

Another underpinning element of Lamentations is that it is steeped in rich narrative. � e title of the album, for example, was inspired by an English baroque composition and the Book Of Lamentations from � e Bible.

“� ose two stories are quite tragic. I love a good tragedy, and I guess more macabre and morbid fantasies. I’m kind of drawn to stories about heartache and death and all those kinds of yucky things. So I think a lot of the album was written around those kinds of topics,” she o� ers. “Most of the things that I’ve written about are just from my own experiences, but I guess there is a lot of imagery to do with mythology and mythological stories.”

� en there’s Dirty Hercules. But instead of that being a reference to a Greek demigod, it’s more an acerbic re� ection of a nasty tour manager.

“I was on tour a couple of years ago with Blue King Brown over in the States, and the tour manager at the time didn’t take too fondly to me. I didn’t really understand why she had a vendetta against me, and I kind of got to thinking and realised there are people out there who I guess exercise their power out of their own insecurities,” she explains.

An early exposure to jazz in high school first sparked the lust for music for Papua New Guinean-born artist Ngaiire Joseph, who, after spending 10 years as a touring musician with Byron Bay collective Blue King Brown, is now coming into her own with her dazzling debut solo album, Lamentations.

“It’s a bit sad, I mean, the industry that I’m in produces girls that can be particularly bitchy. I kind of wanted to challenge our responsibilities as artists who are supposed to be encouraging each other to get to these spots. It shouldn’t be a competition — everyone has their own gift, everyone has their own insecurities.”

Perhaps the catty nature of erstwhile acquaintances is why Ngaiire would love to sing a duet with former Silverchair frontman Daniel Johns, instead of fellow soul divas.

“I’ve always been a massive fan. Diorama was out and massive when I was in high school, and it was around that time that I’d just moved from PNG and was discovering all these new genres and artists that I’d never heard of. And Daniel’s amazing — his intelligence as a songwriter is just otherworldly.”

Having just been in the States performing with Blue King Brown on tour, Ngaiire ruminates on the di� erence between the US music industry and Australia.

“It’s a totally di� erent world over in the States. I just got back from there, and I managed to spend some time in New York. I went to this jam in the Village and everyone was singing, it was a full on gospel jam. But even though it came from that place that was inspired by faith and Christianity, everyone was on the hustle to get somewhere. After every single jam people dropped the name of their Facebook and website... I think the celebrity world that American musicians grow up in is very self promotional,” she says.

Having spent the past month on the road in promotion of Lamentations, Ngaiire and her band will arrive in Adelaide this Sat Oct 12 to perform at Jive. Expect � nger-light-thingys.

“I’ve been doing a lot of shopping at

Reverse Garbage. � ey have some of the weirdest things down there, including a jumble of � nger lights that I thought would be cool for the band.”

As the world turns their attentions to Ngaiire with her kooky fashions and boosted aplomb, what of Blue King Brown? Having o� cially left the politically-driven band in 2008, the singer still does � ll in occasionally for BKB’s overseas tour jaunts but she does want to focus on her solo career.

“Since [leaving] I’ve been � lling in whenever they need someone, but I left because I wanted to focus on my own stu� . � ey’ve seen me grow as a musician, they gave me the � rst taste of what it’s like to tour as an independent band I’d always looked up to. � ey are the people who gave me the foot into that experience.”

Having already sung with Nai Palm from Melbourne neo-soul outfit Hiatus Kaitoye on Dirty Hercules, Ngaiire does hope for some more collaborations in the future. In her chat to Rip It Up she divulges her dream would be to work with Adelaide-born crooner Sia. “I haven’t thought that far yet, I’m going a bit nuts and having a meltdown before this tour! But I’d really really love to do some writing with Sia. I think she’s my favourite Australian artist at the moment. There’s always time for that.”

Interviews //

Having just laid down a few new tracks in the studio, Of Mice & Men’s Austin Carlisle sounds relaxed, chilled and eager to talk to Rip It Up ahead of their upcoming tour with Bring Me The Horizon.

Steinbeck’s Best

Of Mice & Men

by Jess Bayly “As soon as my manager gave me a phone call about the o� er to Australia, I jumped at it. I know you’re not supposed to pick favourites, but Australia is literally one of my favourite places in the entire world,” Carlisle admits.

“We are really excited to come back there and of course with Bring Me � e Horizon. I’m happy to be part of a tour with such a well respected band.”

Of Mice & Men is a metalcore band hailing from California, forming in 2009. � e band has released two albums, their 2010 self-titled debut, and 2011’s � e Flood. � ey have been in pre-production for their upcoming album, which is due for release in a few months. � e album will be mixed and mastered by award-winning producer David Bendeth, who has worked with the likes of Bring Me � e Horizon, Killswitch Engage, A Day To Remember and Paramore.

“We wake up in the morning, get breakfast and work on music. We might have time to watch a movie and then pass out. Some days I might work on an entire bridge for a day and other days I might be able to do two or three songs. We live and breathe what we are doing.” Carlisle says. “� ere are about four completely conceived songs that we have right now. We are really happy with them and of course, with the direction we are going with the band and personally too. It’s something I’m really excited for people to hear. And not just our friends, fans and family but for people who have never heard of Of Mice & Men.”

Of Mice & Men have played countless sold out shows across

WHO: Of Mice & MenWHERE: Thebarton Theatre (with Bring Me The Horizon)WHEN: Thu Oct 10

the globe and headlined numerous festivals. When asked of his fondest memories, Carlisle was quick to answer.

“Hands down — Soundwave. We’ve been on other festival tours, but my favourite is Soundwave. � e people that are a part of that festival is just massive. We were one of the headlining bands on Vans Warped Tour and then we went to Soundwave and we were like, the 25th band on the bill. Nobody knew who we were, but man; you had bands like Metallica, Linkin Park and A Perfect Circle, that just makes it for me. I got to meet Corey Taylor [Slipknot] and the Slayer guys. I accidentally hit on Lars [Ulrich] from Metallica’s girlfriend. � e experience makes the tour and it was just so fun; from the chartered buses, to the � ights and hotels. Soundwave really made us feel welcome and I’d love to do it again.”

� e Australian tour with Bring Me � e Horizon is an all ages show. Carlisle expands on the range of fans the bands have and the ongoing issue of underage drinking.

“I’ve never been in a situation where there has been a problem. I don’t see anything wrong with drinking but drinking, along with anything like sky diving, or sex, you

have to have a limit. It goes with anything. You have to take anything within your limits. I can see where there could be problems.”

Do you feel a sense of responsibility when you’re on stage with under age fans in the crowd?

“We pride ourselves on that. If a � ght breaks out, we don’t promote that at all. We’re a heavy and angry band, sure. We do the circle pits and crowd sur� ng. But I don’t promote violence in any way, I’ve lost too many people that way and it sucks. � ere’s having fun and then there’s just being a complete dick.”

And lastly, what do the kids need to know?“Stay in school, it’s not cool to be drop-outs. Pick school

over music — you can do music anytime of the day, anywhere you are and, of course, appreciate your parents.”

The new EP, The Good Borne Of Bad Tymes, expresses this, as he breaks away from his classic role as guitarist. He explains that working alone has been excellent, but also

‘detrimental’—seeing him locked in his bedroom, fussing and rewriting constantly.

“One of the songs that’s on this first EP started as an acoustic guitar song, along the lines of a full on [Paul] Westerberg thing,” he says. “Then it went from an acoustic guitar song into a sequenced drum song

Heading out on tour as a solo-artist-with-backing-band for the first time, Davey Lane (You Am I, The Pictures) is pretty pumped. He’s been doing this ‘music thing’ for a long time now, but still finds it fascinating.

with—my nod to Kevin Shields and My Bloody Valentine—this wall of sweeping whammy bar guitars.”

The time on his lonesome meant that he could try out really new things, so on a whim he wiped away the guitar work completely.

“There just ended up being so much more space to breathe,” he marvels. “There was this metronomic synthesizer thing running through it, which reminded me of Tubeway Army and Barbara O’Reilly, so it ended up being a song with no guitar on it at all apart from this really short, screaming guitar solo in the middle.”

However, while the experimentation has been good, he admits that sometimes the limited patience of other band members is necessary in the writing process.

“You can end up chasing your tail for an inordinate amount of time,” he says. “Sometimes you just need someone to tell you, ‘Nup, that’s it. We

Who: Davey Lane (with Archers and Sparkspitter)Where: Jive BarWhen: Fri oct 4

need to make a decision now, sign off on it, and just leave it; let it go. Let it go.’”

Originally, the songs were part of an album, but Lane decided to split the tracks into two EPs. He explains that this resulted in two focused collections, which he was happier with than the ‘hodge podge’ album it would have been.

The first single, You’re The Cops, I’m The Crime has been welcomed warmly, with fantastic reviews. The track’s ominous electronic stylings have commonly been described as ‘sinister’, but Lane doesn’t necessarily agree.

“There’s a few deliberately cinematic twists and turns in it, in terms of chord structure and production,” he says. “But I don’t think it’s particularly sinister, myself.”

He pauses for a moment and then chuckles. “But I’ve had songs of mine described with far less complimentary words, so sinister’s fine by me!”

Our chat with Lane comes the day after the election. As a big player in the arts, generally the first area to be slashed for cash, Lane is “pessimistic” about the results.

“I was trying to have a few days off the booze, because I was hitting it pretty hard early last week,” he says, “but election night

was my one ticket out of it. I thought, ‘Fuck, there’s only one thing for it; it’s just too fucking depressing, I just have to wipe myself out.’

“But then again,” he adds, “I woke up and nothing had changed; it wasn’t just a horrible nightmare.”

As for other interests, Lane admits he’s a bit of a one-trick pony.

“Music is my hobby and it’s my life. If I’m not working on music, I’m buying records or I’m trying to track down a book about Ian Dury that I haven’t been able to find. Much to the detriment of me having a well-rounded personality, music is my entire existence from the minute I wake up to when I eventually pass out. That’s all there is. That’s everything to me. I can’t really do anything else; I can’t really talk about anything else.”

He laughs and then he sighs.“For better or for worse, that’s what I do.”

Dizzee Rascal

Interviews

Mills, speaking from Los Angeles, grants that he's been "anxious" for his fifth album to drop.

"I've been sitting on it for so long — I just want it to come out," he says with unusual candour for a pop star. "I've listened to it a million times and I'm almost sick of it myself !"

The Brit last ventured out with 2009's blockbuster Tongue N' Cheek. But he's remained visible with tours and cameos — Mills features on EDMster Calvin Harris' 18 Months.

"I kinda never stopped making music, in a sense, but then I took a year out to just live," Mills says. "I mean, I bought a place in Miami, I was out in America a lot, but all the while still making the album... I guess I wasn't keeping track of the time like that. I didn't realise it was four years."

Last year the council estate kid performed at the opening of the Olympic Games — a symbolic and personal triumph.

"To be represented as part of British history to the world like that was amazing to me, man - especially in the area that I grew up, because I'm from around that way, like East London, in Stratford."

Mills, then a DIY teen, debuted with the grime Boy..., which won the prestigious Mercury Prize — and he impressed a junior Tinie Tempah. Yet Mills outgrew the genre. For Tongue... he collaborated with Harris on electro hits like Dance Wiv Me.

The Fifth serves as a new chapter for Mills since he's lately signed to the major Island

Dizzee Rascal (AKA Dylan Mills) has finally moved on from UK grime with his poppiest album yet in The Fifth, recruiting Robbie Williams for its lead single, Goin' Crazy. He's even recorded in the US. But will the MC's fans buy it?

WHO: Dizzee RascalWHAT: The Fifth (Liberator)

Records — although he describes it as "a partnership" with his Dirtee Stank stable. (Liberator is Mills' Australian label, however). Island approached him at the BRIT Awards, "offering a load of money."

"We had to just kinda tell 'em like, Nah, actually, that's not enough!''," Mills boasts. What ensued was a year of negotiations. "Then they came back with something that made sense." Mills sought a label with global reach — and "a big machine".

As such, The Fifth is commercially ambitious. Nevertheless, Mills didn't contact Williams for Goin' Crazy because he's iconic (which he isn't stateside). Rather, he'd met the maverick and liked him.

"He's someone I actually sit down and get on with and have a chat with and just chill."

Other guests on the album include Tinie, Jessie J and will.i.am (singing, not producing). But the biggest surprise is that,

at a time when American urban acts are looking to the UK, Mills cut The Fifth in the States. In the album's credits are RedOne (Lady GaGa) and Warren "Oak" Felder and Andrew "Pop" Wansel (Miguel), Mills conferring with his management and label on whom to hire.

"It's basically just the best of the best — they're putting me in there with the biggest people."

Mills' modestly suggests that he was "lucky" the hitmakers agreed to work with him. Overall, creating The Fifth was "a different process" — but one the MC enjoyed. Regardless, the UK garage legend MJ Cole helms the promo Bassline Junkie.

Curiously, Mills has given little consideration to how old grime heads feel about his transformation — or balancing pop and street tracks. His main concern was the album's potential "live aspect" — he

wanted "big sing-a-longs" and "hooks". Grime is too "easy" for Mills now.

"It's the pop stuff that's the gamble — and that's the one that takes work to perfect it."

Mills may be keen to conquer the US charts, but he's unsure if he wants to be as huge as Kanye West.

"That'd be crazy!" Mills enthuses. "But the other side of it is obviously it drives him a bit mad... We'll just see what happens, man. I've got a lifetime to be big and famous in America as well. If it doesn't happen this time, it might happen next time. All that matters is that I'm ready for it when it does happen."

Justin TimberlakeThe 20/20 Experience 2 of 2(Sony Music)

Justin Timberlake’s second album of the year is a predictable collaboration with Timbaland. It doesn’t match his decent first 20/20 Experience and falls way short of FutureSex/LoveSounds. The 74-minute LP overstays its welcome, as the Timbas are bogged down in the now redundant future club&B sound, while not offering a leftfield genius curveball such as My Love. Timberlake’s fourth album starts strong before the highlight track comes in the form of the Off The Wall vibing Take Back The Night. From there it’s downhill. Jay-Z phones in one of his laziest rhymes on Murder, ‘Yoko Ono, she got that Yoko Ono, you know that shit that made John Lennon go solo? Know that shit got to be lethal, if that pussy broke up The Beatles’ while the seven-minute epics Amnesia and Only When I Walk Away could have done with some editing, as should have this album.

OddessaIntrigue(Pilot Records)

Phil Rogers’ debut album under new pseudonym Oddessa is an ominous sign of things to come. The young Adelaide club veteran cut his first vinyl release at 19 before running the club and label Cuckoo. Intrigue signals a leftfield change of pace for Rogers, more known for his house and techno. The album doesn’t betray his roots; rather it adds layers of broken beat and ambience to create a chilled techno journey with dark overtones. The wonderful Close In Night is a perfect example, as the mini epic expertly builds and then conquers the listener. Then there is the title track, a monster of a chilled cut, which washes over you like Aphex Twin in his Selected Ambient Works prime. Not everything on Intrigue impresses like the aforementioned cuts, but Intrigue signals that Oddessa’s best is on its way. Don't sleep on this name.

They formed over a decade ago and have since released several albums and are currently considering another recording of their dark offerings that are embellished with instruments such as the musical saw, violin, accordion and glockenspiel along with an Indian drone box.

The Spoils have also toured overseas a great deal and enjoy a strong following in Europe but are currently happy to showcase their wares in their homeland.

“I suppose we toured overseas a lot from around 2007 because we figured we’d rather

Melbourne’s The Spoils are Sean Simmons and Bronwyn Henderson who play with other musicians when the occasion demands. They are currently on tour and will be heading to Adelaide in duo mode this weekend.

be losing money in Paris than in Melbourne,” Simmons laughs. “But it’s now time to concentrate on our own backyard again and we won’t be heading to Europe or New Zealand again for a while. The idea is to tour Australia as much as we can.”

Simmons, who says they include some new songs in their current set, reckons they were last in Adelaide about eight years ago.

“Yeah, we came over to play a festival,” he says. “It was called Harvest Festival but, of course, had nothing to do with the Harvest Festival that’s just collapsed. It was a massive roots music kind of thing held across a few Adelaide venues and I remember us playing with Problem Pony and The Drowners. And I remember Wagons from Melbourne being involved so that would have been in their very early stages.

“So it’s about time we got back to Adelaide again,” Simmons adds, “because people may have forgotten about us.”

Joining The Spoils at their gig will be

Adelaide duo The Dunes.“I believe they will be playing as a full

band,” Simmons reveals. “But that suits us as it might work out better than having two duos. It will give more of a contrast.”

The Spoils recordings are currently available, either digitally or physically, and they also have a self-titled vinyl album that serves as a compilation.

“That was put out a few years ago by Beast Records in France,” Simmons says in conclusion. “We were pretty lucky because it came out just before vinyl became quite popular again. But it’s funny because it now outsells our CDs at gigs.”

behind to save on cost! It depends if they're in a grumpy mood or not.”

They are learning lessons and learning them in style, with the ultimate mentor, Clare Bowditch.

“We supported Clare Bowditch on her tour last year; we did some stuff for her album, and some of us played in her backing band.”

This window of opportunity really kicked things into gear for the Jellies.

“During the tour she kind of showed us how to do things right and to have a real sense of professionalism about the whole thing.”

Speaking of learning lessons, The Royal Jellies were formerly known as The Royal Jelly Dixieland Band. What led them to the name change?

“It's so we are not genre specific,” Hammond explains. “Having Dixieland would forever be having restraints for playing. I wanted to have the freedom to push the sound in any direction we wanted too.”

This is not without its fair share of complications.

“Oh yeah, updating the Twitter account and

the Facebook account? Social media — oh my god it's a fucking nightmare!” he laughs. “And business cards? Oh!” He cries.

Gearing up for their gig at The Ed Castle on Saturday, The Jellies are excited about coming to Adelaide.

“Oh Rundle Mall is like, where it's at. I love the Malls Balls. Every time I go to Adelaide I always go visit the Balls. Adelaide is beautiful, the crowds sure beat Sydney crowds hands down. Make sure you put that in!” he laughs.

If things don't work out, they've got a back up plan.

“If we weren't musicians? Oh we'd work a fish and chip shop for sure, wait what do they call kebabs in Adelaide? Yiros? Yeah I'd be one of those guys.”

Raphael Hammond, master of the trumpet and vocals, whilst perched in a tour van between his seven band mates takes some time to chat to Rip It Up. Headed back to Melbourne from Sydney, these guys are amid their first headline tour, spreading their good vibes far and wide across the nation. This follows the release of their debut album, Burrows St. Poolside.

“Hopefully we'll make some money back from the tour! Next time I'll definitely investigate getting an arts funding grant,” Hammond laughs exhaustedly. “Everyone in the band is pretty generous. We pool all of the money, which helps make the record and tour. We may possibly be tempted to leave someone

A little slice of New Orleans has been brewing in sunny Melbourne: a rambunctious Dixieland affair of jazz, raucous rhythms, mystifying melodies and glorious grooves. The Royal Jellies really know how to get a crowd going.

Daniel Brühl

by MDB

Rush

B rühl has appeared in a wide range of international films (speaking many languages) since GBL!, some of which he’ll return

to later, but for the moment he discusses how he was cast as Rush’s Lauda by Howard.

“I was sent the script and I found out that some of the producers had me in mind for the role. The script just blew me away, and I thought that Peter’s [Morgan, writer and co-producer] work was very impressive. And, on the other hand, I was thinking that Niki is such a legend, such an icon, in Germany, and he’s so different to me and we have nothing in common that I wasn’t going to get the part. But I still wanted to go to the audition. I met Ron and had a very good audition and conversation with him, and it was only when I spoke in my fake, unprepared Austrian accent, thinking that Americans wouldn’t know the difference, that Peter responded in polished Viennese, and said that my accent was shit! And yes, that was the moment that I thought I’d fucked it all up, but three days later Ron offered me the part. I was very excited, and it was then that I began with all of the really intense preparation.”

Did he have to be approved of by Lauda, perhaps?

“I met him many times, and I’m very

thankful that he was willing to spend so much time with me and answer all my questions, because we had to talk about some very sensitive subjects: questions about death and fear and overcoming fear and about his accident. So yes, I was very lucky to have such a good and close relationship with him.”

Lauda must have also been pleased that Brühl looked so much like he did in the mid-‘70s (and that Chris Hemsworth is so

much like the real James Hunt too), and Brühl agrees.

“Yes, that’s right. It all helped: the

Daniel Brühl is happy to be in Australia, as it’s been a long time (10 years in fact) between his breakthrough starring role in the satirical German drama Good Bye Lenin! and director Ron Howard’s Rush, in which he plays no less than Formula 1 legend Niki Lauda. “Yes, I was here 10 years ago, yes, and it’s great to be back! I went to Melbourne and Sydney then, and it was a movie [GBL!] that we were all very proud of.”

costumes, the prosthetic make-up, and the fake teeth in my case [giggles]… And recreating the ‘70s era was really great fun too. You know, the clothes weren’t all just bought from a vintage shop: they were all handmade, and there was more, as [cinematographer] Anthony Dod Mantle used ‘70s lenses on the modern cameras to give the film that special ‘70s look. The music and everything was all so convincing… As well as the cars, the recreation of these races, you know, was so well done that there was a screening for the Formula 1 world at Nürburgring, where the crash happened, and Niki invited Bernie Ecclestone and some of the drivers to show them the film with Ron and they loved it. They also found it totally believable, which was a big relief for us!”

Brühl also laughs when he considers that almost every scene he shares with ‘our Chris’ Hemsworth involves the two of them shouting at and insulting each other.

“Yes! The great thing about the script is that it’s not conventional and you don’t have a hero and a villain, but you have these two guys that you actually like. You like these guys and you understand their philosophies, and you also understand the deep respect they have for each other underneath all of that rivalry.”

Noting that he essentially speaks five languages (if you count Catalan with English, French, German and Spanish), Brühl says that this helps with taking on roles all over the world and has enabled him to work in Spain (Salvador), the UK (Ladies In Lavender), France (All Together) and America (Inglourious Basterds). He also offers some intriguing details about several pics that he has coming up after Rush.

“The Fifth Estate is coming out soon… It’s about WikiLeaks, and I’ve never been

involved in a movie about such current political themes.”

This is the one in which Benedict Cumberbatch plays Julian Assange, right?

“Yes, and he’s an incredible actor and it ’s a mind-blowing performance… And I’m also about to do The Face Of An Angel for director Michael Winterbottom, and I also just finished a movie for Wolfgang Becker [of Good Bye Lenin!], and that’s the one where I play a really sleazy journalist…not like you!”

“I met him many times, and I’m very thankful that he was willing to spend so much time with me and answer all my questions, because we had to talk about some very sensitive subjects: questions about death and fear and overcoming fear and about his accident.”

Those Basterds Are History!It’s been four years since Brühl appeared as Nazi movie star Fredrick Zoller in Quentin Tarantino’s history-rewriting Inglourious Basterds, so how does he feel about the film in hindsight?“Quentin is an extremely bright, creative and crazy guy! I thought that no one in Germany would dare to do that, to reinvent history like that, but that’s what cinema is about: it’s an art form in which you should be allowed to do that. You should be allowed to use that kind of imagination and explore those fantasies. I was very relieved to see the reaction in Germany… I think that even the most conservative groups just really appreciated Quentin’s intelligent and, you know, weird approach.”

Quick FlicksStories We Tell (M)

Director Sarah Polley follows her dramas Away From Her and Take This Waltz with this hard-to-classify and very personal doco, a study of the stories families tell each other and the stories we tell ourselves, regardless of whether either are in any way ‘true’. She’s seen encouraging her dad Michael (a popular Canadian actor himself ) to read his own self-penned narration in a studio, and we launch into what is ostensibly a memoir of Sarah’s mother Diane, who died in 1990 after a life spent acting (mostly in smalltime theatre), bringing up children and trying for more spiritual fulfillment than that

offered by her husband Michael, who was happy to be solitary and frustrated her deeply. Seen in striking footage, Diane is discussed by Sarah’s older siblings Susy, Joanna, John and Mark, but they seem as surprised as we are when this becomes something else entirely, and questions are asked: should these facts be made public? What are the wider ramifications for the family? And, as Sarah subtly suggests, can we ever truly know the ‘truth’ about anyone? A hard movie to discuss, but suffice to say that this pulls the rug out from under the viewer several times in its exploration of secrets, lies, family, memory - and the very nature of documentary filmmaking itself.

Lovelace (MA)

Star/co-producer Amanda Seyfried is strong in this ‘Linda Lovelace’ biopic from co-directors Rob Epstein and Jeffrey Friedman, but she’s not quite right, with her gorgeous, goo-goo-eyes looking quite unlike the homelier, less glam Linda. Having it both ways, this is split in half: the first has Linda Boreman (AS) desperate to escape her overbearing parents (Robert Patrick and Sharon Stone in a potentially jokey bit of casting) and meeting the slimily cute Chuck Traynor (Peter Sarsgaard, another co-producer), who she eventually marries and follows into prostitution and ‘porno chic’, as 1972’s Deep Throat (directed by Hank Azaria’s Gerry Damiano) becomes a massive, controversial hit due to the ‘talents’ of the rechristened ‘Linda Lovelace’. However, everything’s then turned around, and we pick up with Linda taking a polygraph in 1977 and revising the story we’ve just seen according to her later autobiographical books (like Ordeal), with Traynor revealed as a drug-crazed brute whose career highlights (including a meeting with Hugh Hefner, played by James Franco) are shown to be all about her exploitation. Perhaps not quite as daring as it could have been (especially as Linda’s later ‘feminist’ memoirs are quite horrifying), this has a fine cast, a suitably seedy ‘70s look and the purest of intentions, but somehow doesn’t quite come off.

Mad Dog Bradley

AAA

Runner Runner (MA)

Brad Furman, whose last directorial effort was the enjoyable The Lincoln Lawyer, follows that up with this humdrum drama that offers a dull hero and an even duller villain. Richie Furst ( Justin Timberlake) is a Princeton student doing a Finance Masters (after a cash-friendly Wall Street gig fell through due to the GFC) and on the verge of being thrown out for bookmaking. When he bets all his cash on an online poker game, and loses, he travels to Costa Rica to confront the rich-as guy behind the mega-buck operation, Ivan Block (Ben Affleck – yawn), and insist that he’s been duped. Block, of course, admires Richie’s gall and hires him, and after a glam montage showing the wimpy lad being inducted into Ivan’s inner circle, we get into the drearily typical brass-tacks of this sort of thing, with a showpony FBI agent (Anthony Mackie) snooping around and Richie understandably trying it on with Ivan’s gal-pal Rebecca (Gemma Arterton), who really goes for him in a big way (hey, it’s either him or the even drippier Ben Affleck, right?). Mostly undone by its tedious stars, this has weak work from Justin, a seriously unthreatening turn from Ben and Gemma playing up her English accent so desperately you almost expect her to ask, “Freshen your drink, guv’nor?”

Grown Ups 2 (PG)

Three years ago, Lenny (Adam Sandler) went home for a funeral and had the time of his life. Really. So now he packs up the wife and kids and moves them back home permanently, so that they can all be near Lenny’s childhood friends (Kevin James, Chris Rock and David Spade), but it isn’t long before the notion of whether you can go home again really comes into question. The cause of the reunion may have changed from the first spin, but the general premise is the same – a bunch of mid-lifers rely on their shared history to pretend they didn't get old – only now the writing is lazier, the characters are dumber and the jokes are even less funny. Neither of the Grown Ups films have been completely unbearable in the big scheme of things: they’re both just so overdone, and so utterly pointless – and yet this is still a step up for Sandler after his recent string of abominations, and at worst it’s a sidestep for James, Spade and Rock. Making Grown Ups, the gang seemed to want to be The Big Chill and couldn’t understand why they weren’t. But The Big Chill never had a sequel, and so the question remains: of all the films Sandler could have chosen for his first redux, why this one?

Little Miss Miami

A jungle of tropical plants, a random assortment of old televisions playing retro TV show reels and an overhanging sign of this groovy new bar featuring a neon pink flamingo gives you a taste of what’s behind the gated exterior. While the interior may seem like an eclectic mix of ideas the common theme is obvious, with the owners aiming to take our senses away to the breezy oceanside of Florida’s beaches. With a dazzling white interior and adjacent courtyard decorated with a ceiling of paper umbrellas and a wall

mural advertising Budweiser, you grasp the understanding that we’re not in Kansas anymore, but smack bang in the middle of Miami – or Little Miss Miami, to be precise.

Opening a few months ago, the place has all the elements that the cool kids of Adelaide are on the prowl for, with funky beats playing in the background and a bunch of pierced/tattooed attractive people working the bar. Being just after work on a Friday, we settled with a glass of Ducks In A Row Fiano and a bottle of Negro Modelo – a rich and robust Mexican cerveza with caramel and chocolate flavours, which made for a great match for the Cuban-inspired plates of food on order.

The menu at Little Miss Miami covers all bases, with everything from vegan share plates to ones stacked with everything a carnivore

could want in a platter. We decided to start with the popcorn chicken – little pieces of deep fried, Jamaican-jerked deliciousness paired with aioli and lime wedges, adding a little more zing to this already spicy dish. I recommend sharing this one with your group of friends, as it’s certainly too much fried food for one. The Cuban sandwiches came next. While the brioche buns were a little over toasted, the pulled pork was good, and the tartness of the dill pickle spice and mustard was balanced out by the sweetness of the burger.

Beneath the bar is a mantra that reads: “I distrust camels and anyone who can go a week without a drink,” followed closely by the specials board. With some shredded, slow-cooked beef empanadas highlighted as the

kitchen’s dish of the day (to masticate to…), and while perhaps overdoing my deep fried quota for the day, these were in fact some tasty parcels of goodness.

Little Miss Miami: where drinking is compulsory, dancing is optional, and the food is best eaten a little later in the evening to help you through a cocktail-fuelled night of fun.

Possessed To SkateWestern CBD gallery Salad Days Inc will host an exhibition

all about skating and skate culture this October with Possessed To Skate. Kicking off Fri Oct 4 and curated by Sean Thomann, the group exhibition will put the spotlight on contemporary street culture and the consuming effect it can have on those involved. The opening night will feature a hubbub of activity, with the gallery expanding out onto the streets to feature live wall painting by Jelena Vujnovic, live tattooing by Alex Yap, live music and skate film projections.

HarvestHarvest features the work of 33 local

artists digging and delving into the theme of ‘harvest ’, hosted by Urban Cow Studio. Each artist was given the same basic instructions prior to the exhibition – a ‘plot of land’ (a canvas) and a haiku by Japanese poet Matsuo Basho about the harvest. From there, each artist has interpreted these ideas in their own unique way through painting, jewellery, ceramics, printmaking and sculpture. Featuring Hannah Carlyle, Zoe Brooks, Naomi Bishop, Lucinda Gregory, Penny Farrow, Fruzsi Kenez, Sean Powell, Kim Thomson, Agota Sjorstrom, Cat Leonard and many more.

keepsakethelabel.com.au

As an Adelaide label, what’s your view on Adelaide fashion?Adelaide fashion has been underestimated and I think that

is our strength. It has come so far and has still so much room to grow, the more fashion that starts and stays in Adelaide is supporting this. Being in Adelaide, we are almost in a league of our own, we should embrace that! 

You’ve said that Keepsake o� er an alternative to the usual ‘party dress’ – how so?

By combining a modern design aesthetic with classic silhouettes.

Keepsake has been worn by some pretty in� uential celebrities already, including Nicole Ritchie, Reese Witherspoon and Brittany Snow, but if you could dress anyone who would it be?

Anyone? If we could go back in time, we would love to dress Edie Sedgwick – what a babe!

Any advice for aspiring fashion designers? Work hard at what you are passionate about and be true

to yourself.

What’s next for Keepsake? You will have to wait and see…

UNIQLO Coming To Australia

While Adelaide will have to wait, Japanese street franchise UNIQLO will make its way to our shores for the first time, with its first store set for Emporium Melbourne, a new retail complex on Lonsdale St. The store will span over four floors, featuring the full line-up of affordable apparel for men, women, kids and babies. However, we still have a bit of a wait on our hands, with the store not set to open until autumn 2014 – yet since the first store opened in Japan in 1984 and now spans 1,200 stores in 14 countries, we can hold out a bit longer...and pray to the UNIQLO gods for an Adelaide store to come soon after.

The Great Gatsby Roadshow / M / 136 mins

Drawn from F Scott Fitzgerald’s novel by co-writer/producer/director Baz Luhrmann, this has been trashed by some as ‘overly extravagant’. Well, duh. A story told by a broken Nick Carraway (Tobey Maguire), we initially follow Nick as he works on Wall Street in 1922 and dotes after cousin Daisy (Carey Mulligan), whose husband Tom Buchanan ( Joel Edgerton) is an old friend of Nick’s and, of course, has a mistress (Isla Fisher as Myrtle Wilson). When Nick meets the mysterious, preposterously wealthy Jay Gatsby (Leonardo DiCaprio), who lives in the mansion next door to Nick’s Long Island abode and hosts ludicrously expensive shindigs, the two become ‘friends’ but, naturally, there’s more at play. Hidden romantic agendas? Check. Painful passions? Check. Extreme visual opulence? Check. Messages about how money doesn’t buy you happiness? Check! Endlessly ‘Luhrmannised’, this has one of this director’s amazing cast mostly delivering the theatrical performances for which ‘our Baz’ is famed, and yet the biggest problem here is that the star quartet are stuck with such pain-in-the-arse characters, old sport.

Haute Cuisine Paramount Transmission / M / 91 mins

Drawn from the true story of Danièle Mazet-Delpeuch, co-writer/director Christian Vincent’s drama has an awkward structure but should please French-favouring foodies anyway. Hortense Laborie (Catherine Frot) is introduced cooking for labourers in a Southern Antarctic base, and as her past is discovered by a camera crew she begins to flashback upon her time as personal chef to François Mitterand ( Jean d’Ormesson) in the Élysée Palace, a gig that should have been a joy, particularly when she befriended the jolly old President himself. However, Hortense’s work is made very difficult as she clashes with jealous cooks, mean public servants, bitchy accountants who carry on about the cost of all these lavish ingredients and those who insist that the Prez wants rich and fancy food and not the basic, homey fare he actually enjoys. And, as she remembers preparing the nosh in the palatial kitchen, we witness the creation of some seriously extravagant dishes, including mushroom broth, cabbage stuffed with salmon, boeuf en croute, snail stew and her legendary St Honoré pastry, which looks like it could induce instant diabetes.

InAPPropriate Comedy Universal / MA / 84 mins

Co-writer/director/producer Vince Offer’s ghastly sketch comedy fancies itself as ‘scandalous’ as the similarly ‘offensive’ Movie 43, but that film had bigger stars and more committed naughtiness, and this is a dull, meaningless mess. Some bozo (Offer himself ) in a sewer looks up Lindsay Lohan’s arse (essentially) as she cheesily imitates Marilyn Monroe in The Seven Year Itch, and then pops back and forth from a series of iPad apps that bring to life ludicrously unfunny parodies of TV shows with ‘edgy’ themes (like Blackass and The Amazing Racist), a porno review show featuring Rob Schneider, Michelle Rodriguez and a guy behind them, um, showing his appreciation into his tub of popcorn, and Flirty Harry, a Clint Eastwood-ish spoof in which a poofy cop knocks off heaps of ‘hilarious’ gay gags. And, yes it’s true, ‘Flirty’ is played by no less than onetime Oscar-winner Adrien Brody in pink women’s slacks and contributing some of his own dialogue, suggesting that he’s desperately hard up for a buck – or has absolutely no sense of humour.

It’s A Date Roadshow / M / 249 mins

Creator (and co-writer with many mates) Peter Helliar’s ABC creation has a simple premise compensated for by a fabulous Aussie cast and much humour and (no, really) heart. Each of the eight episodes here studies a date/relationship-related question about honesty, opposites (and whether they attract or not), that scary old rebound, issues of age difference and more, as we follow dates enjoyed, endured or sprung upon two unconnected romantic couples. These potential romantic double-acts are worth pondering: there’s Helliar himself and a drunk Lisa McCune intercut with a harried Dave Lawson and his peeved girlfriend Poh Ling Yeow; John Wood and comedian Denise Scott (nicely restrained); Stephen Curry and Asher Keddie; Nadine Garner and Kate Ritchie (with uncomfortable questions about what constitutes being ‘in’ or ‘out’); Shane Jacobson and Pia Miranda (especially as he’s about twice her body weight); and, in the final outing, English funnyman Ross Noble and Ian Smith (AKA Harold from Neighbours), who doesn’t look at all like his profile pic on Grindr.

Abominable Science! Daniel Loxton and Donald R Prothero / Footprint

Loxton and Prothero’s attractive (and heavy) tome isn’t some scary-scary study of cryptozoology (ie ‘the study of hidden animals’ – although if they’re hidden then surely they can’t be studied that easily?) but, in fact, one of the great works in the field of skepticism. Both noting that they were once youthful believers in Bigfoot, the Yeti, the Loch Ness Monster and so forth, this finds them compellingly debunking one ‘monster’ per chapter (along with sea serpents and ‘Congo’s dinosaur’, the Mokele-Mbembe) by way of scientific reasoning and hoax-exposing, before a final section in which they rightly admit that they would love to believe (and don’t mock people who do) but, cryptozoologically speaking, simply can’t.

on YouTube and becoming completely obsessed with it, it’s very relevant to young audiences.

“Jesikah goes to any lengths to find fame and infamy online and is aided and abetted by her friend, Denise, to be played by Elizabeth Hay. And Phil has such a great way of writing scripts for adolescents because he talks to them rather than down to them.”

Ian Meadows’ Between Two Waves, a contemporary play about climate change, will also be mounted at Bakehouse Theatre in October as part of the company’s umbrella project.

“It will be directed by Corey McMahon, who is a young, up-and-coming director,” Brookman concludes. “Our umbrella project is all about getting State Theatre’s audience out to great shows in other theatres.”

State Theatre CompanyState Theatre Company Of SA, who will soon present John Doyle’s Vere (Faith) as part of its current season, recently announced its program for 2014.

The company’s artistic director, Geordie Brookman, was full of enthusiasm as he announced the forthcoming season, which will include three new Australian plays, Lally Katz’s Neighbourhood Watch, Nicki Bloom’s Little Bird and Sue Smith’s Kryptonite, as well as a collaboration with esteemed English theatre director Peter Brook and Théâtre Des Bouffes Du Nor for the Australian premiere of The Suit. The program will also include Chekhov’s The Seagull as a new adaptation by Hilary Bell, which will star Adelaide-born Hollywood actor Xavier Samuel, as well as Shakespeare’s Othello – set in an Australian military academy – and Oscar Wilde’s The Importance Of Being Earnest, which will feature veteran actor Nancy Hayes as Lady Bracknell alongside the ever-popular Nathan O’Keefe with a luxurious set from Ailsa Paterson.

Alongside the seven main stage plays, Daniel Keane’s The Long Way Home, which reflects the experiences of Australian servicemen and women deployed on operations in Iraq, Afghanistan and East Timor, and will be presented in conjunction with The Australian Defence Force.

“It’s a collaboration with Sydney Theatre Company and Australian Defence Force and it’s a series of interviews with returned servicemen and women,” Brookman says. “And out of those, Daniel Keane has created a piece that looks at what it takes to go to a war zone and how difficult it is to return home again. It’s a community story and a piece that pulls no punches.”

State Theatre will also be presenting Sydney-based playwright Phil Kavanagh’s Jesikah as part of its school education series in May and will feature Kate Cheel as the lead.

“Kate has done wonderful work for us for a number of years now – she was brilliant in Brief Encounter recently – so we thought it time we built a show around her,” Brookman enthuses.

“Phil Kavanagh is a really exciting young writer so we were really keen to commission a piece [from him] especially for our education program,” he continues. “It’s also the first time we’ve done that, and as it’s a very dark and funny play about a young high school girl finding fame

Change Is Coming

It’s been nearly a month since the public summarily beheaded the hydra that was the Rudd show and installed an exuberant Abbott on to the throne.

With Julia Gillard maintaining a dignifi ed silence about the destabilisation that Rudd had been wreaking within the party since his initial deposing, the Labor party fi nally realised something important. Nobody had any idea what an Abbott government might actually look like when fi rmly in control of the kingdom. Far too late, the Labor party began shrilly demanding that the Liberals reveal their long term plans, fearful of the long shadow that the right might cast on many of its pet projects. Labor did what it did all along with Tony Abbott the individual – it underestimated the Liberal party’s voracious appetite for change, and it completely underestimated its capacity to wield power in such a way as to affect change quickly and comprehensively.

Right from the beginning, the drumbeat of the Abbott government marching into power was ominous. Its fi rst move was to enact revenge on ideological enemies. Steve Bracks, a former Victorian Premier and investment banker, appeared eminently qualifi ed to be our consul-general in

New York and was appointed as such to the post by the Gillard government. In her fi rst move as Foreign Minister, Julie Bishop axed him. Next the climate commission – an independent body set up by the Labor government to advise on climate change – were asked to fall on their swords. Following on from that, heads of the public service that were perceived to have a negative view of the Abbott government were sent to the gallows and the broadband gang were eliminated.

This is all within the ordinary behaviour of a government that dimly views those who sympathise with Labor, doesn’t believe in spending too much on a broadband future and doesn’t want to address climate change with a market mechanism. It is what was to come that was truly extraordinary – notably AusAid being axed and 4.5 billion dollars cut from the aid budget, along with dire predictions from Christopher Pyne about his vision of an education system that teaches children a version of history that takes into account the ‘remarkable achievements’ of the Liberal party.

Whilst Labor was busy destroying itself, the vipers in its nest weren’t focused on where they should have been: a Liberal government that seems intent on reimagining Australia quickly, thoroughly, and effectively.

After studying a three year Visual Communication bachelor at UniSA, Michael Roberts took a year o� freelancing, exploring the mines and taking the time to think about what’s next. � rough freelancing Roberts has worked using a variety of his creative skills gained, from illustrative brand identity, to game graphics. Working away for Roberts helped him “put everything into perspective” and he made a decision keep studying to support and apply his skill set more relevantly. For him it was to tackle a shorter Diploma Of Education, which Roberts felt would not only aid his pro� ciency but allow him to validate and pass this skill set on to the younger demographic of school leavers.

Roberts recommends studying visual communications as it is a “great vocational subject in the arts”.

There are plenty of firms who need graphic designers. “Brand identity is more prevalent in today’s society

because of web presence and on line ads businesses need graphics and companies turn towards designers to achieve this,” Roberts explains.

Adding teaching to the mix for Roberts seemed like an appropriate flow through. Roberts mentions it was the “job security” of teaching in a field “which provides a social aspect and keeps you fresh” that interested him. Not only that but a one year Dip. Ed. felt like an “approachable uni degree”. Continuing to study post graduation means that Roberts, now classified as a mature aged student, felt like he had “more discipline to push myself along, unlike when I was an undergrad still needing guidance”. This supports his decision to study by correspondence through Charles Darwin University. Roberts recommends external education for though people who can “take charge of their learning”.

AdalitaAll Day Venus(Liberation)

All Day Venus is the second solo album for former Magic Dirt lead singer Adalita and it’s one of the best things she’s done. This time round it is a lot different for Adalita, admitting that she is more vulnerable and having to let others in (her new band) to share

her music.Annihilate Baby is the perfect opener,

literally blowing out those cobwebs. I love the dirty guitar riffs – you know from the very first note that it’s Adalita. I Want Your Love is stripped back and shows a vulnerable Adalita. The way that it builds just works so well. Trust Is Rust is a beauty and should be ear-marked as a single, while there really is something great about the title track and Warm Like You.

The album is simple but arranged so well with its trademark distorted guitar riffs, heavy drum beats and Adalita’s vocal stylings that this album doesn’t tire. There is an underlying theme of toxic relationships that runs through this album and the ballad Too Far Gone is an example of that. Adalita really does kick things up another notch with the honest and raw All Day Venus, as it shows Adalita carving out her niche.

GrouploveSpreading Rumours(Warner)

After a string of winning singles peppered over debut Never Trust A Happy Song, you would expect more infectious claps and jaunty sing-a-long choruses on Spreading Rumours. Instead, Californian quintet Grouplove have tried to create a more collaborative, cohesive album. While this is achieved, it sacrifices much of the candy-coloured novelty that made Never Trust... so appealing. However, as they step into maturity, swaying further towards an electro aesthetic is a good move. There’s still plenty of pop fused into the tracks, with lead singles Ways To Go and Borderlines & Aliens sure-fire pleasers, and the filler tracks have a delicious crackle. Shark Attack has a tropical, surfy vibe that revisits the same flavour that was nailed on Never Trust... It’s like stepping back into the ocean after a long winter. Perhaps Grouplove’s biggest downfall – and quirk – is the imperfect and glitchy dual vocals of Hannah Hooper and Christian Zucconi, with some of the bigger moments grating as the album progresses. Yet the vocals aren’t the champion of Spreading Rumours, with the expert marriage of rock and electro carrying them through right until Save The Party fuzzes out, making Grouplove a worthy band to spread the word about.

Live Review

Illy, Tuka, Allday & Elmont Governor Hindmarsh(Photos by Kristy DeLaine)

(Review by Katie Bryant)

The Aussie hip hop genre usually evokes fear in the hearts of the non-Bogan masses. But feign some hope, Illy is doing his best to pair pounding hip hop beats with catchy choruses for the Australian scene. Toting enough snap backs to appease Justin Bieber, the Melbourne-borne artist has built a following around the continent.

Receiving triple j notoriety and a party boy attitude to boot, Illy is a rising star. The crowd at the Gov was alarmingly youthful, sharing a contagious sense of enthusiasm and the ability to dance like nobody’s business. However, the problem with a baby-faced audience is that the grown ups are left to tolerate stray mums teetering on the edge of the room.

Illy didn’t fly solo, with special guests and fellow Aussie rappers Tuka, Allday and Elemont present. The urban magnate had a drummer and DJ joining him in the ranks and the trio did their best to deliver a dynamic and forceful show.

Jake BuggWhat Doesn’t Kill You (Virgin/EMI)

Just like Bob Dylan turning his back on the folk faithful when he swapped his acoustic guitar for an electric back in ’65, Jake Bugg’s two fingers to the nu-folk fraternity on new single What Doesn’t Kill You is likely to cause a similar stir. The first taste of Bugg’s second album Shangri La, the Rick Rubin-produced What Doesn’t Kill You is a message to anyone who had him pegged as one of Mumford’s sons. Bugg spits more than he strums here, punking out with a distinctly British-flavoured indifference evoking The Libertines or Arctic Monkeys.

N’fa JonesLife’s A Game (The Ayems)

It’s been a long time since 1200 Techniques ruled Australian hip hop – a fact acknowledged on Life’s A Game – but their former frontman N’fa Jones sounds less out of place here than he did on breakthrough track Karma all those years ago. Life’s A Game is a largely autobiographical piece, recounting some of the key moments in the game N’fa calls life. After years spent pioneering the genre, N’fa is finally ready to start reaping the rewards.

SwimmingNew Friends (Independent)

Swimming have a knack for stimulating the visual senses simultaneously with the aural. Their combination of audio and visual has been wed in holy matrimony once again on new single New Friends. The spatial sparseness and delicate vocals of the track – instantly reminiscent of Melbourne band Otouto – is cleverly reflected in its video of neon-soaked sleepwalkers. Mastering one creative discipline is difficult, mastering two is unusual. Yet this local trio are well on their way.

Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic ZerosLife Is Hard (Create/Control)

Alexander Ebert has always had a touch of the preacher man about him in his guise as leader of Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros. Like Tim DeLaughter of The Polyphonic Spree or Win Butler of Arcade Fire, Ebert leads his cult with a charisma that is equal parts inspirational and prophetic. On Life Is Hard he shouts from the pulpits once more, steering his followers through an emotional journey of deliverance, peppered with rolling climaxes not witnessed since David Bowie’s Rock’n’Roll Suicide.

London GrammarIf You Wait(Universal)

The front cover of London Grammar’s debut album looks like an awkward photo taken at their high school disco. The London trio are out of high school, but just barely. When listening to If You Wait, however, any thought of immaturity will be dispelled.

Their minimalist sound is deliberate and precise. The haunting opening track Hey Now is one of the strongest on the album, and sets the melancholy mood. Pianist Dot Major and guitarist Dan Rotham are wise in leaving room for Hannah Reid to display her stunning vocals. The band sticks to this formula, leaving Reid’s vocals as a focal point throughout the album. Her vocal range is displayed in standout track Wasting My Young Years. It pays off when the band show a little less restraint on Sights, allowing the building chorus to eventually explode. Their stripped back album closer If You Wait is one of the best examples that less is more.

There isn’t a lot of variation in London Grammar’s sound, making some tracks blend into the next on the first or second listen, but those who have the patience will be rewarded with a promising first album.

Andrew Handley

Franz FerdinandRight Thoughts, Right Words, Right Action(Domino/EMI)

The fourth album itch is an inevitable predicament for every successful band, raising the question of whether to follow a new direction or stick with what they know. Franz Ferdinand chose the latter with Right Thoughts, Right Words, Right Action, and it’s lucky they did. Yes, it’s a little same-y and yes, they are sounding more and more like a Duran Duran revival band, but it’s just so full of classic, indie-pop dance tunes that are quintessentially Franz. It’s a sound we all know, love and can’t get enough of, even if we hadn’t realised it yet. Opening track Right Action thrusts you into the album with gusto. Boasting a seductive groove and sharp riffs, it’s on the way to gaining the same party anthem status as Take Me Out and Do You Want To? Other standouts include Evil Eye (instantly reminiscent of INXS’s I Need You Tonight), the sunshine-y, Beatles-esque Fresh Strawberries and synthy treat The Universe Expanded. Rife with in-your-face choruses thanks to Alex Kapranos’ demanding vocals and somewhat sarcastic lyricism, the entire album oozes incomprehensible sass. Right Thoughts, Right Words, Right Actions was definitely the right album for the Glaswegian quartet’s comeback after a four-year silence.

Bella Fowler

Damn TerranDamn Terran(Independent)

Damn Terran are awfully serious. Like the best exponents of post-punk, the Melbourne outfit eschew all the extraneous miscellanea of their industry and allow their music to do the talking. And on their self-titled debut album, it’s the substance that dominates the style.

The other side of this coin is that such a lack of personality makes it hard to fall in love with them. That said, it’s surprising how easy it is to be drawn into the hard-edged, powerful monoliths that inhabit this record. Provokasia sets the tone with a prophecy that is as fast-paced as it is foreboding. Lost surfaces next, replete with wailing guitars and boy/girl vocals evoking some sort of Children Collide/Savages lovechild. Elsewhere it’s their less contemporary influences that dominate, like the Pavement slacker vibe to Wrong Things or the Sonic Youth-y droning of Simon’s Song. DZ Deathrays singer Shane Parsons makes a guest appearance on recent single Pills, suggesting there’s a bit of a clique forming at the fringes of Australia’s noise alternative.

Damn Terran seem like they don’t care if they make any new friends with this record or not. And it’s this attitude that makes their debut album so damn cool.

The night brought bright lights, booze and booty’s a poppin’ at the Governor Hindmarsh. Illy carried the party to Adelaide, with the crowd doing their fair share of twerking and grinding. The singer’s performance was a little lacklustre, employing all the clichés and leaving the impression that he was reading straight off a ‘How-To-Party’ script rather than being the real deal.

Highlights of the night included famed triple j’s Hottest 100 of 2011’s Cigarettes and the vulgarly catchy Put ‘Em In The Air. The songs were crisp and their danceability was off the charts.

Overall, Illy delivered a high energy, enthusiastic set, all whilst remaining humble to his fans. However, he has a lot of room to advance lyrically. Illy’s sound has suffered from the commercialisation of his genre, the artist too often choosing to spin tracks about the drinking and partying of his youth instead of something more meaningful.

Perhaps it ’s for this reason that the seasoned rapper is so easily monopolising the Australian teenybopper rap market. Ultimately it all seems a little too easy for the urban champion. Boozy pump up beats he can easily provide, but the lack of morale leaves a stale and empty feeling within each rhyme.

The Kid MC Throws A Never Growing Up PartyLast year, James Williams AKA The Kid threw away the real-estate business suit to focus solely on his music. Obsessed with rapping and skating, the local MC has gone on to release his debut EP, Never Growing Up. Rhyming for over 10 years, he recently stepped into the Australian rap battle scene with his fast-talking, charismatic and intellectual rhymes. After eight consecutive wins across Australia, and winning numerous freestyle competitions, he battled the famous Conceited from New York City, in a match that has since attracted close to 200,000 views on YouTube. Witness this party first hand on Sat Oct 5 at the Promethean alongside Edukate and Til The Break.
