Review: Victoria Nugent

The latest offering from Brit indie folk rockers Noah And The Whale reached my ears at just the right time, as this collection of laidback yet catchy tunes is capable of bringing sunshine to chilly winter days. Last Night On Earth is the band’s third album, and represents a distinct departure from their previous folky style to much more radio friendly pop territory. Although this may upset some of the band’s older fans, the album itself is thoroughly enjoyable and almost ridiculously catchy. Every song tells a story, with Charlie Fink’s husky vocals guiding the listener through a set of anecdotes representing a series of relatable experiences. The cheery tunes have a dark edge which saves them from being bubblegum pop

and plants them firmly in the category of music that quickly grows on you. Fink’s vocals are competent, if not remarkable, while the instruments provide a firm base for a string of intensely likeable songs. Song after song, I found myself quickly singing along and becoming more and more fond of the band’s cheery rock repertoire.

WEIRD WEDNESDAYS – Wednesday 22 June 2011
A monthly off-beat movie night @ www.tribaltheatre.com.au

A double feature of the rare cult movies:

Forbidden Zone (1982) (R18+) – 6.30pm In an absurd, cartoony world, Frenchy slips through a mysterious door in the basement of her house which leads to the Sixth Dimension. The jealous Queen Doris takes Frenchy prisoner and it is up to her family to rescue her. Director Richard Elfman, founder of the New Wave band Oingo Boingo, created the film to capture the essence of the band’s live performances on film. This marked his brother Danny Elfman’s first musical score… he would go on to be one of Hollywood’s most popular composers and long-time Tim Burton collaborator. See him perform Minnie the Moocher as The Devil! Newly restored and ‘colourised’, fans can now enjoy the film on a whole new level. An experience guaranteed you will never forget!

Review: Billy Geary

Marillion at iTunes

Live albums are always tricky things to make, even trickier when you elect to strip your songs right back to the barest of forms. They serve as the true test of an artist, because if an artist cannot replicate their music well in a live setting, it is very hard for them to be a successful act. Thus, upon hearing that Britain’s daggiest band had gone and recorded an all-acoustic show, it was met with more than a small amount of trepidation. However, Live From Cadogan Hall sees Marillion in perfect touch. Live, the band is almost unfaultable, with the five-piece recreating their music in acoustic form brilliantly.

Some people give linen and silk on their fourth anniversary, others give fruit and flowers, here at Coaster we are presenting you with a gift basket full of the best local talent, picked fresh from musical trees around the country.

We have hand picked some of the best live performers from as far flung as Western Australia, with festival favourites John Butler Trio, Jebediah, Drapht and Tim and Jean, across to Melbourne to grab Little Red, a quick stop off in rural VIC to add a dash of Gold Fields, through Sydney for a sprinkling of The Potbelleez, Bag Raiders, Tonite Only, and Andy Bull, reaching up to Brisbane to harvest QLD’s next big things Ball Park Music, finishing off with a smattering of more amazing acts to make on delicious musical feast.

Central Coast hero’s Something With Numbers hit the stage to play their first show in two years and only show for 2011, with fellow Coast locals, One Dollar Short coming out of hibernation, after calling an indefiniate hiatus back in 2005. These two things alone are turning Coaster 2011 into a welcome home party of epic proportions.

After an unforgettable debut last year, Tomorrow Land returns with a collection of talent such as Ajax, sexy DJ’ing minx Nina Las Vegas, Tom Piper, Naysayer and Gilsun, Wolfpack, Purple Sneakers DJ’s and more to ensure lots of calories are burnt on the dance floor.
