Dead Farmers
Spit/Shine


MP3

Pretty much every decent Dead Farmers song (ie. all of 'em) sound like they belong somewhere between the swamp and the train tracks. They throttle forward with a determined level of force, yet they also sulkily drag their feet with a fuck-da-world teenage attitude. Yeah, maybe it's a locomotive flying off course and crashing into the nearby mud flaps. That's not a metaphor or a euphemism, but if it was it would probably be the dirtiest one ever published here.

Spit/Shine is the ram-shackling grand finale track off the Sydney group's brilliant debut album Go Home, which is out now on vinyl (with mp3 download voucher) via R.I.P Society.

Update on the relocated Goodgod shows

The two R.I.P Society launch shows that were originally scheduled to be hosted at Goodgod now have new venues locked in:

Saturday, April 17
Kitchen's Floor, Bed Wettin Bad Boys and Holy Balm
Friend In Hand, Glebe

Sunday, April 25
Dead Farmers, Royal Headache and Dick Diver
202 Broadway

The biggest disappointments of 2008

Obama didn't pick Lil Wayne as his running mate, the total lack of new albums by Courtney Love and Ini Kamoze didn't beat down Girl Talk for not clearing his sample of Here Comes The Hotstepper.
