Some really interesting gigs coming up in Sydney. Who's in?
Russian Circles
Russian Circles are kind of The Necks with metal instrumentation. Cinematic metal? I think they're fucking awesome. Playing Hermann's on 11th September.

Marnie Stern
Marnie Sterm, well she's just fucking indescribable. Amazing shredding guitar taps + bubblegum pop. Something genuinely unique. All I can offer is some YouTube links, but her album "This Is It and I Am It and You Are It and So Is That and He Is It and She Is It and It Is It and That Is That" is one of the most strangely addictive musical treats in the last while. Playing some venue called "Tone NIghtclub" on Wentworth Avenue on 6th October.
