Yes I'm leaving / Narrow Lands - Creepy Man
Yes I'm Leaving and Narrow Lands teamed up for a one night show the sound was huge and my ears were ringing for days.
Once known to jangle, Sydney band Narrow Lands have turned their hands to rumbling. Since adding a baritone guitar to their mix, their music has become heavier, darker, weirder and, well, simply better. On their self-titled LP, the guys from Narrow Lands mix the sweet grittiness of punk with a thundering mess of noise/feedback, in the spirit of bands like Swans or Dead China Doll. Recorded in two days in mid-winter, in a shed behind Alan’s parents’ place on a little farm west of Bathurst, Narrow Lands aimed to keep the LP sounding as fresh, authentic and ferocious as possible. Each ridiculous sound you might hear here is an experiment with the potential of an instrument, a way of allowing things to 'freak out' without forcing the issue. The result hits you like a friendly punch in the guts.

THE ALL SEEING HAND HIT AUSTRALIA!
Mongolian throat-singing, turntables, frantic drumming and dissonance... The All Seeing Hand blew crowds away at Camp A Low Hum and we welcome them to our fair(ly fucked up) land for their first and only Sydney show October 12th.
The All Seeing Hand is comprised of Alphabethead (masterful Turntablist gestated in the Hip Hop battle scene before branching into every direction at once, working everything from orchestral gamelan and Inuit folk music to post-punk and electronica into his compositions) Jonny Marks on vocals (a true sonic explorer, traditionally-trained Mongolian throat-singer and high-energy front-person) and B Michael Knight on drums (schooled in the energy of DIY punk and hardcore, tightly binding the whole sound together with driving rhythm that is equal parts chaos and precision). These elements combine into a band of dissonant, dense beauty and intense live shows that leave observers in an ecstatic state of both wonder and confusion.
