Its Karnivools first full Australian tour since the New Day tour in June and July 2010, but theyve hardly sat on their hands since then as soon as the last slab of fat bottom end rang out from that run, the band got on a plane and headed to Europe to play on the main stage at Sonisphere Festival in the UK (along with Slayer, Alice in Chains, Pendulum and Iron Maiden) before spending 5 weeks headlining throughout the US and Canada. Not content with this they again crossed continents headlining and selling out major

venues throughout mainland Europe and the UK, proving that not even Europes coldest winter in a decade could keep the band off the road. Having your merch snowed in and selling out iconic venues like the Melkweg in Amsterdam and Scala in London was a new experience for Karnivool, but added to the fun!

The Frontier Touring Company are pleased to announce the return of longtime genre-blending stalwarts Modest Mouse for headline shows this July that are sure to be an essential addition to any music lovers’ must-see list for 2011. Modest Mouse’s extensive 18 year career has been on a constant upward trajectory since their formation in 1993. After developing a cult-like following with their earlier work, their 2004 offering Good News For

People Who Love Bad News and its massive hit ‘Float On’ propelled the band further into full fledged stardom and primed the world stage for their most recent and immensely successful fifth album, 2007’s We Were Dead Before The Ship Even Sank.

The album hit No.1 on Billboard album charts and critics were quick to bestow praise on the American group:

‘Modest Mouse should be championed for exposing a larger audience to a sound in line with classic indie rock, rather than aiming for more traditional rock sounds like many of their more accessible indie contemporaries.’ – Pitchfork

’Brock has never sounded more charismatic, or chameleonlike, as he alternately croons, spits, and bronchially howls through lyrics.’ – Entertainment Weekly

‘Is there another “Float On”? It scarcely matters: 10 years into their career, Modest Mouse have stumbled into their best album yet.’ – Blender

‘Much of We Were Dead feels like a culmination of the sound that Modest Mouse have spent the last decade or so honing.’ – Alternative Press

‘This is a band working at the very top of their game, and this album is a beautiful, brilliant beast.’ – MusicOMH.com

In the years since, Modest Mouse have continued to cement their place as revolutionaries of the indie-rock genre, as the band recently were in the studio working with hip hop heavyweight and OutKast rapper Big Boi on a couple of new songs.

Catch Modest Mouse if you can, tickets are sure to be in high demand. For tour information and details please see below.

Review by: Luke Sutton

– Living Undesigned

Living Undesigned, the sophomore release from Trial Kennedy is truly a work of sheer blood, sweat and tears. Debut effort New Manic Art was one of my fave independent releases of recent times. It was fresh and exciting, classic rock with a bit of an alternate vibe going for it. Unfortunately, due to devastating personal life issues (heart surgery, label issues etc) Living Undesigned feels as though it has been king hit and knocked off of it’s feet. And yet Trial Kennedy have climbed back up out of the rubble, defining the odds and producing an album that manages to retain the bands unique sound and produce something new at the same time.
