2010 has kicked off to an exciting start for all out bands!
Faker gave a very special performance at Big Day Out’s 100th show billed under ‘Freak’ – they really had the crowd going and played a bunch of new tracks as well as all the old favourites. The boys are currently spending countless hours in the studio working hard on the highly anticipated 3rd album and follow up to ‘Be The Twilight’ due later this year.
Shihad have had a great start to the year supporting AC/DC on their recent tour across New Zealand. ‘After more than 20 years together, Shihad still know how to put on one hell of a live show and were the perfect choice to amp up the crowd. Kimberley Crayton-Brown, NewsWire.co.nz’
Next up for the boys is the Homegrown music festival in New Zealand later this month, before heading back to the studio to put the finishing touches on the new album.
Sparkadia have headed back to London to continue working on some new material for their upcoming sophomore album. The band is excited about heading to Paris to work with writer Luke Davies on the video for their first single, to keep up with all the latest Sparkadia news head over to their new blog – www.sparkadia.wordpress.com
Late January saw Metals play The All-Australian Music Festival, Kiss My Grass to a sold out Australia Day crowd. Latest single ‘Drop Your Guard’ is up on Triple J’s Unearthed and receiving rave reviews. ‘rating: 5/5 Awesome club track with top-end production. It’s dirty, sexy, bouncy and hella-catchy. Kinda like the bastard offspring of a one night stand between Peaches and Bumblebeez. The Dr Who sample is genius! Dan Buhagiar, triple j’
