Review by Billy Geary
It’s common knowledge that the past year or so hasn’t been the easiest for Brisbane alternative rock darlings The Butterfly Effect, with the band reported to have been close to breaking up on numerous occasions. However, seemingly, everything is back on track for the four-piece with a new album in the works and a tour to celebrate 10 years since the release of their debut EP. On Friday night, the 10 Years Tour rolled into Pier Live, Frankston; which is unfortunately not one of Melbourne’s brightest suburbs. The two burly gentlemen trying to pick a fight with the bouncers on the door only confirmed the suburbs representation. It does beg the question though, why The Butterfly Effects only two Melbourne shows were at least half an hour from the CBD.

Mark Winterbottom and Irish international co-driver, Richard Lyons have tapped into the ‘Luck of the Irish’ to win on the final day of the 2011 Armor All Gold Coast 600.
After finishing third in Saturday’s race, the Ford Performance Racing (FPR) pair continued their strong soft tyre form today to charge ahead of polesitters Jamie Whincup and Sebastien Bourdais to claim this afternoon’s final 300km stanza. |
After suffering on the soft tyre compound for the most of the year, yesterday’s podium and today’s race win was a welcome improvement for Winterbottom.
“Winning is fantastic, but doing it on soft tyres is that little bit sweeter,” said Winterbottom.
“We haven’t had the best run on that tyre and the guys have worked incredibly hard, to see them from the podium and to see the smiles on their faces – that’s a lot of hours in the workshop and they really deserved it.”

For anyone who ever thought that making good music was a lost art, LAURA compels you to think again. On October 14 the Melbourne five piece release their long-awaited third album, TWELVE HUNDRED TIMES.
 |
Of the new album, LAURA’s Andrew Yardley says ”’Cutting the fat’ – was the mantra applied to every aspect of creating TWELVE HUNDRED TIMES. Focused and obsessed, we were brutal in refining every note of every song. Songs and sounds became territorial, aggressively fighting for space. The weak were cut or cannibalised. Emotion was a scarce treat, allowed in small potions but neurotic self-restraint ensured it didn’t weaken our vision. Any reward songs gave us along the way was immediately ploughed |
back into the earth. TWELVE HUNDRED TIMES is lean and sharp as planned but is ultimately more sentimental then we envisioned.”
