Classic Aussie Rock, Blues, New Wave, n Punk. Holy shit!
So I’ve posted a few YouTube videos that have caught my attention but never a whole channel…until now.
Laneway Music are posting some absolutely killer Aussie music content from 40+ years ago. Lots and lots of single track videos but also some full concerts by diverse acts such as The Models, Icehouse, Mondo Rock, The Mark of Cain, The Celibate Rifles…holy fucking shit, Batman!
Or even just head to their website: Laneway Music
Well worth a visit!
Bandcamp Friday
Just an FYI: According to the website, Is It Bandcamp Friday, the next one will be on March 6, 2026. w00t!
Ironhead vs Iron Head
So, I went looking on Bandcamp for a Polish (I think) band called Iron Head but they’ve chosen not to earn any money. However, I did find Ironhead, a US band that now seems sadly defunct–if their dead website and gone Facebook account is anything to go by. So now I have this in my wishlist ready for the next Bandcamp Friday.
They aren’t “female-fronted” but the bass player is a woman, and that’s enough to get them the Goddess of Metal tag. Not sure if it’s the vocalist/guitarists wife, or sister but that don’t matter.
Energetic punk rock n’ whatever rolls band from…
…Dundee, Scotland.
Edited: 5/12/25…now in my collection
King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard
This legendary Melbourne band have made their entire catalogue “name your price”. Don’t be a stingey cunt, though; at least 5 bucks an album is fair.
But maybe wait until December 5th for the next Bandcamp Friday so they get more of your cash.
