Triple JJJ: Still good for something...

I dont turn the radio on very often. I rarely get excited about the stuff i hear when i do tune in, usually when driving a work car or something. I am reminded of the good ol' days when i could leave my dial tuned in to TripleJ/PBS or RRR and expect to hear something good/new and cool and then id go out and research the band and find their music in a shop!
Nowadays it's tuned into whatever frequency my ipod is broadcasting and listening to playlist x. Given that the radio is kinda getting more and more saturated with dance/pop/weird alt country folk stuff...im comforted by the fact that a station like TripleJ has kept their horizons bright with the JJJunearthed page. You will find a lot of crap bands on there...yes..that is certain.

BUT theres a bunch of mad-nutt bands who have tracks up there for free and i figure this makes it a place to re-visit from time to time and get updates.

Atlanta Takes State

Metal, in your face...mad stuff from sydney. Check their myspace for info and whats happening with them.
The song you wanna hear is 'Who Ate The Disco Biscuits' and if you dig that, then you definitely need to dig up the rest. Look for a new EP thats on its way from these guys. This track is off a demo but if you can look past it...you're in for a treat!!



These guys are from Melbourne and as far as i have listened, freeeking rule. I dig it. The track to get on is Vultures and if you like what you hear, go on itunes and buy the other tracks which make up this EP and turn it up loud so the nanna's in the car next to you will know 'we likez ze metal muzik'.
Good for fans of the synthy-core-sing/scream stuff thats becoming so popular at the moment.



Awsome... !!
