The Latest Fallout - Single Review: What Kind Of Person Do You Take Me For
03 Mar 2018 // A review by ShelleySketch
With their new single, The Latest Fallout have taken more of a Pop Rock approach. There are some distinct Punk undertones, but the vocals make it come across as being more of a Pop Rock track. Brendan Pyper’s vocals in their older releases were rawer, whereas they now seem cleaner and somewhat manufactured for radio. This is not necessarily a bad thing.
The instruments seem to mix the old with the new, however, I feel as though the track seems somewhat obscure. Regardless of the vocals, What Kind of Person Do You Take Me For, is still a captivating and memorable track.
Unfortunately, not too long after releasing this single, an announcement was made via Facebook that The Latest Fallout were disbanding. It’ll be interesting to see what music they all individually pursue in the future.

Times x Two - EP Review: Late Night Legacy
26 Jun 2018 // by ShelleySketch
Times x Two have been somewhat of a staple in the New Zealand festival scene for a while, but they have now stepped up and are showing NZ just how big they can be with the release of their new EP Late Night Legacy. The EP cover art is strong and regal, with Cader and Zee against a rich red background; somewhat of a reflection of the objective of the EP itself, as there are some solid tracks that are sure to blow up.

Thomston - Single & Video Review: Acid Rain
25 Jun 2018 // by ShelleySketch
Thomston has been rather absent from the public eye lately but decided to surprise us by releasing a new single and video for Acid Rain. The single cover art has somewhat a very retro feel, thanks to the clothing choices of a metallic button up with cream pants used in the image.

05 Jun 2018 // by ShelleySketch
It’s a damp night, it was 8pm and the doors opened. The crowd began to pack in and I’ll admit there was more than I expected.

03 Jun 2018 // by ShelleySketch
With his most recent single release in 2017, Mitch James has returned with a beautiful acoustic track entitled 21. The music is a simple accompaniment of a piano and a guitar, with what sounds like a finger snap or clap.

As part of NZ Music Month, Auckland local Josh Leys played an intimate show at Mt Eden Village Centre. The atmosphere made me feel a bit like I was at a school dance.
