”īoth bands are also featuring alongside the strong female contingent of bands featured on the Laneway Festival lineup, including the likes of Haim, Lorde, The Jezabels, Adalita, and Savages, as well as Frightened Rabbit, Vance Joy, Four Tet, Jagwar Ma, Unknown Mortal Orchestra, and many more. Today the Glaswegian electro trio tweeted that “a very ltd number of tix to our previously sold out just went back on sale. Taking place after the sold out Melbourne and Sydney legs of the festival, the secret show will be held “at an eerie yet beautiful location in the inner western suburbs of Sydney on Wednesday 5th February,” with the gig’s location to be revealed to ticket-holders on the day of the concert.Ĭhvrches are also playing Laneway 2014 sideshows in Melbourne – at the end of the month – and Sydney in early February. Warpaint’s new record was issued in Australia last week, with the band announcing a ‘secret’ Laneway 2014 Sideshow to celebrate its release. Mayberry also reveals she’s seen Warpaint twice before (“me = delighted both times”), but you can expect that tally to rise when the pair being their Australian tour with Laneway Festival 2014 later this month. But: “Sounds which do not seem like they should go together songs that don’t even seem like they should be on the same record as each other, somehow belong.” Vincent, Le Tigre, “vintage MIA”, and even David Lynch. The fellow Laneway act also praises the band’s “tight, undulating rhythm section of bassist Jenny Lee Lindberg and drummer Stella Mozgawa” as well as influences she hears, such as St. The shoegaze elements of previous material are alive and well (enhanced by Flood’s production and the touches added by Nigel Godrich), exemplified through the Bat For Lashes-esque vocal of “Biggy,” the woozy, Moog’ed-up shoegaze of pre-album single “Love Is to Die,” and the synth-heavy, downtempo “Teese.”
If anything, it exceeded my expectations by quite some way,” notes Mayberry further elaborating: And (spoiler alert) it didn’t disappoint. “Warpaint are one of those bands, and their self-titled second album is one of those albums.
WAR PAINNT ORCHESTRA SERIES
Mayberry’s piece is the latest in a series of artist-on-artist assessments engineered by the team at The Talkhouse, the same website that brought you the must-read review of Kanye West’s Yeezus by Lou Reed (R.I.P.) and the hilariously bizarre Drake write-up from Vampire Weekend’s Ezra Koenig.Īs you’d expect of the 25-year-old vocalist, who wrote one of the best anti-misogynist pieces in recent memory, the Chvrches singer’s succinct appraisal is intelligently written, beginning with questioning: “Can you really say you like a band when you only have one record to base that on?”īut as Mayberry writes, off the basis of 2010 debut album The Fool, the all-female indie rock band are a group worth getting excited about.
