Aussie Pub Rock & Grunge pioneers (not to mention Tool support act) Cosmic Psychos are heading out on their "First Aussie Tour In Forever" in August:


9th August: Hi Fi Bar, Melbourne + the Ooga Boogas, Dead River Open
10th August: Metro Theatre, Sydney + Front End Loader, Bruce
16th August: Amplifier Bar, Perth + Devil Rides In
17th August: Fowlers Live, Adelaide + Meatbeaters, Pro Tools
24th August: Hi Fi Bar, The West End (Brisbane?) + Six Ft Hick, Good Times

Some interesting support bands there - Front End Loader are one of my favorite bands, pity they're not supporting the whole tour.  Pro Tools (playing in Adelaide) I believe are some kind of side-project featuring John Scott from the Mark of Cain.  And Six Ft Hick are always fun live.

 


"Aussie Pub Rock" that's a genre? dope.

Harvest Festival in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane announced this morning and the lineup is:


Massive Attack
Franz Ferdinand
Primus!
Goldfrapp
Neutral Milk Hotel
Desaparecidos (Conor Oberst)
Eels

The Drones
Black Rebel Motorcycle Club

The Wallflowers
Walk Off The Earth

Shows are in November:


Sunday, November 10 -Werribee Park, Melbourne

Not a bad lineup.  I'd be pretty keen for Primus, Massive Attack and BRMC and most of the rest have at least some passing interest.  I won't be there though as I'll have been to Melbourne for a ATP show not long before then, so here's hoping for some Adelaide sideshows.

They are going from an 85 hectare site to a 35 hectare site in Sydney.

 

For that reason alone I think I might skip that cluster fuck.

I wouldn't have thought they'd done that lightly - did they use all 85 hectares at the other site?

Souinds good - I'll be away the weekend they play in Adelaide though which is pretty shit:


One of the most crushing forces in current death metal, INNUMERABLE FORMS bring their suffocatingly dark, Finnish death inspired heaviness to Australia for the first time. Featuring members of Mind Eraser, Iron Lung, Hatred Surge, Mammoth Grinder, Gehenna and far too many others to mention, Innumerable Forms match or exceed the highest standards set by their other projects and pummel without mercy.

MAMMOTH GRINDER members do time in Innumerable Forms but here go for the jugular in a more direct manner with their assaultive blend of death metal, crust, grind and thrash. A steamroller of apocalyptic riff devastation and decapitation by headbanging.

FRIDAY 26TH @ THE TOTE w/ Inverloch (ex disEMBOWELMENT), The Kill and Doubled Over

SATURDAY 27th @ ANIMAL HOUSE (adelaide) w/ Starvation, Internal Rot + More

SUNDAY 28th @ THE GASOMETER w/ Extortion, Straight Jacket Nation, Internal Rot, Sewercide, Headless Death + Bloodrule

THURSDAY 1st in Canberra

FRIDAY 2nd @ The Square Sydney w/Internal Rot, Oilly Boys, Headless Death + More

SATURDAY 3rd in Brisbane w/Shackles, Internal Rot, Headless Death + More.

Sleep news:


Seminal stoner/doom band, Sleep from San Jose, California will play two shows in Sydney and Perth following their appearance at ATP’s Release The Bats, Melbourne in October 2013.



Formed as a Bay Area punk rock band called Asbestosdeath, the band changed their musical direction and name and debuted as Sleep with their Volume One album in 1991. After Justin Marler left the band, the core lineup of Al Cisneros, Matt Pike and Chris Hakius went into the studio to record a demo cassette that they sent to Earache Records. The recording was released in November 1992 (exactly as received by the label) under the name Sleep's Holy Mountain and went on to forever alter the musical landscape. Countless current bands cite ...Holy Mountain as a major inspiration, and the unique sound and style of the record can be heard in many subsequent releases by bands from all over the world.


Sleep's Holy Mountain created such a buzz that major label London Records signed the band. Unfortunately, the label lacked the vision necessary to actually follow through and release the album that Sleep recorded, mostly because it took the not-radio-friendly form of a single song – a 63-minute long ode to weed – called Dopesmoker. Sleep returned to the studio and edited the track down to 52 minutes and retitled it Jerusalem, but it was again rejected. London Records shelved the record and dropped the band, leading to their dissolution.

Luckily, the record had a life after death and refused to stay buried. It first saw the light of day as the shortened Jerusalem version by The Music Cartel in 1998 beforeDopesmoker (at its full 63 minute length) was given a proper release by Tee Pee Records in 2003. Dopesmoker stands as one of the towering achievements in recent metal history, a mesmerizing, intoxicating, and incredibly complex song that is still unrivalled in the annals of stoner metal.

The band's breakup, while devastating for fans, turned out to have a silver lining as Matt Pike (guitar) went on to form High On Fire, a metal juggernaut that has authored five albums to date, and Al Cisneros went on to form the transcendental wonder OM who have released four albums to date.



Sleep reformed in 2009 and now includes Jason Roeder of Neurosis on drums.



Catch Sleep in Australia on:


Saturday October 26 – ATPs Release The Bats, Melbourne
Tickets on sale from Moshtix

Sunday October 27 – Manning Bar, Sydney

Anytime between July and October.  It used to be that the BDO got announced the first week of October all the time, but now that Soundwave and BDO are more more competitive with each other it's hard to tell when they will be announced.  I did hear that AJ mentioned Soundwave would be announced in August though.

My prediction at this stage is NIN headlining Soundwave, and Pearl Jam headlining the BDO.  We'll see in a few months I guess.

Right thanks, August isn't too far away. Not really a massive NIN fan, or Pearl Jam for that matter so hopefully there are a few other big names in the mix to get me along (to Soundwave atleast). Would like to catch NIN on their own though just to see what the fuss is about - hopefully a sideshow will take place. Has anyone caught NIN at a festival in the past few years? Really can't see them being much chop in this setting?

I've only ever seen NIN in a festival setting and they were great both times.  From memory NIN have only actually toured Australia in a non-festival setting once (and even then it was only short tour rather than a full one).

Well there you go, probably worth heading along to Soundwave then. Hopefully your prediction is correct!

NIN is headlining SW 2014, pretty much a sure thing. Google it- this site can be a PITA from a mobile device at times so don't feel like attaching a link right now.

That guy has been wrong plenty of times in the past, so not sure I'd call it a sure thing on his count.  I do believe it will happen though.
