Meridian Vibe - Crash And Burn Single Review
18 Apr 2014 // A review by tonymcdonald
I had not heard of Meridian Vibe until this single landed in my inbox. I would describe their style as alternative pop rock, which I hope doesn’t offend the band too much, but I can see this being in the charts.
Crash and Burn is very very catchy indeed, and full of brutal energy that made me want to rock out, even at 11am on Good Friday.
This three piece excited me from the get go. There is nothing that will shock you, but it reminds me of my favourite artists; Ash, Third Eye Blind and even Foo Fighters. I hope that’s taken as a compliment the way its intended.
The production is superb and I hope if the guys produce an album that it contains some more alternative rock tracks.
Nice work, I cant wait to hear more from these guys.

About Meridian Vibe
Meridian Vibe had the incredible opportunity of recording their debut single Crash and Burn at Parnell’s prestigious and now sorely missed York Street Studios back in 2014. This single was followed up by a music video produced by Candlelit Productions which can be viewed on the Meridian Vibe YouTube Channel. The theme of this music video draws on the extremes of amateur backyard wrestling.
In 2016 Meridian Vibe followed up their debut single with a second single The Slave Who Quit. A dissection of the Socio-Political agendas facing New Zealand in recent years with a satirical nod to events pushed by the mainstream media. This animated music video was proudly produced by Jeremy Jones of propellermotion.

In the sweaty snake pit that is Valhalla I was ordering a Fireball when two feet appeared next to me at the bar. Looking up I discover it’s the one and only Jared from Dead Favours.

27 Feb 2021 // by tonymcdonald
New Zealand’s very own Blink 182, Elemeno P, with support from Fruit Juice Parade and Valentina hit San Fran, on a fantastic warm Wellington evening. It was packed out; beers were flowing, and the sticky smell of the low-ceilinged venue was absolutely buzzing.

11 Oct 2020 // by tonymcdonald
Even during a period of uncertainty in New Zealand with Covid-19, Devilskin and support act Shepherds Reign managed to fill San Francisco Bath House in Wellington. In fact, I have not seen a queue outside on the street for quite some time.

Album Review: MudBelly
20 May 2020 // by tonymcdonald
I'm glad we are on lockdown, as its time to really put my speakers to the test and turn them up loud (but not too loud, my health & safety hat is on).MudBelly (what a great name) are fairly new, but this debut album will ensure that they are going to be well-known from now on!
