Description:
If Hilltop Hoods are the elder statesmen of local hip hop, Funkoars are their younger, smuttier, falling over drunk cousins. While both groups come from the same Adelaide collective and have collaborated on numerous projects, Funkoars are on some 'party and bullshit' MO. We believe the technical term is 'smut hop'.

Wolf and Cub's Science And Sorcery album launch
Where:
Corner Hotel, 57 Swan St, Richmond
When:
Fri June 26, doors 8pm
How much:
$17 + BF from here
Description:
Wolf and Cub have two drummers, a brand new album and one foot firmly planted in a 1960s acid flashback. We could tell you all about how they're awesome live and their psychedelic rock shtick is very 'now', but that's just boring you with details. Buy the album, see the show, use this as an excuse to buy the best T-shirt ever invented.

Description:
Everyone and their mums have been freaking out about this guy Jay Reatard. On the flipside, everyone who likes music is freaking out about No Age, (whose album Nouns is out now on Stomp/Subpop). I guess it's a good thing they are both playing together soon so we don't have to go on a country-wide Prozac prescription.

It's nice when first-class festivals decide to share their choice artists with us non festival goers. Thanks to ATP who have decided to put three international cult bands on one bill and make it affordable, unlike their festival.
