Transistors - Dirty Diver Single Review
This song brought about an array of mixed feelings with regards to its total output. The best way to describe this journey is in the shape of a roller coaster that begins with a lengthy climb only for the initial drop and adrenaline rush to be cut short so prematurely. With that said I am going to start off by stating the positives about this song.
The whole garage sound is very appealing to me as a listener and the start of the song gives me that opportunity to become interested in what’s next. It's obvious to me that these young men are very passionate about their music and love what they are doing and this should be their catalyst to strive for bigger and better things. Although this review is leaning more towards the negative side they should by no means be disheartened by it, I would hope that this would inspire them to create more music with gusto.
Unfortunately the song as a whole is average at best, what really hurt it for me was the singers voice. It sounds very flat and did not compliment the sound. Music as we all know should fire up the sense’s, arouse your current mood and give you moments of reflection, this song did none of those and I found myself struggling to get through the whole song. There were moments I would warm up to certain parts of the song as I heard sounds reminiscent of The Strokes but then the song would just abruptly go back to that off putting flat sound.
I really wanted to like this song, but my heart just was not into it. I really do hope this does not put off the young lads, like I said earlier, they are obviously very passionate (having watched the video).
I would have to grade this song and completely contradict myself and say it’s a buy, and why you may ask. Well the NZ music industry should be fully supported and I intend to do that here.

Turkey The Bird - Album Review: Men, Fish, Boat
31 Oct 2024 // by Chris Chick
Turkey The Bird is the greatest thing to come out of Taranaki since the Jurassic age, if not, at least since the great name of theSlacks who would have thought two magnificent specimens could co-exist in such hostile conditions. But this is about Turkey The Bird and their third album Men, Fish, Boat.

Chasin Wolves - Album Review: Chasin Wolves
04 Apr 2024 // by Chris Chick
If you like your music hard, fast and in your face, this is the album for you. I had to bath myself three times after the first listen just to calm down my ever-increasing dopamine hit.

Ravenhall - Album Review: Brother
09 Feb 2024 // by Chris Chick
Listening to music should evoke an emotional response, to evoke a response that is both positive and uplifting is very difficult to do. I am sure those at the top of their game can argue that it is a talent that comes easy to them, but all the unseen variables that come into play through just living, making friends, going through the highs and lows of life.

Lost Tribe Aotearoa - EP Review: Lost & Found
14 Jun 2023 // by Chris Chick
I am a true ‘noob’ when it comes to the Lost Tribe Aotearoa, so I can assure you and the band that this will be as unbiased as possible. After hearing the first song, I think it is going to be hard to stay that way all the way through this review.

Late to Chelsea - EP Review: LTC
17 Feb 2023 // by Chris Chick
When it comes to the soundtrack of anyone’s life, I am pretty sure the counter cultural sounds and motives of the punk movement would have influenced you at some time. Every generation needs its punk bands even if it's just the opportunity to not take yourself too seriously and enjoy the madness that is life and music.

Corrella - Single Review: Skankin
09 Dec 2022 // by Chris Chick
Oh yes, the summer vibes are in town and Corrella is starting the skank off without delay. Is there any other type of music that reflects New Zealand during the summertime as the ska/reggae vibes that permeated from the West Indies.
