Interview: Ghoul
About a month ago we snuggled up next to Ivan Vizintin from Sydney band Ghoul, on a long distance train from Mexico to Disneyland (Tokyo). To kill the time we discussed many things, including Ghoul's long awaited debut album, the current state of local music and the awesomeness of Dr Dre's 2001.
FBi announce June benefit shows
A month of fundraising events have been set-up to ensure the Sydney radio station stays on the air.
This weekend in Sydney: Exquisite Corpse, The Love Explosion, J Dilla tribute, Hopetoun Valentines Day show and more
Normally when February rolls into town (drunk and smelling a little bit like it has been fooling around with March) the whole world breathes a giant sigh of relief. It (normally) signifies that the crazy festive season is OFFICIALLY over.

It's light outside but the Jager-dale is in it's usual dark, uninviting, cave-like state. Sydney four piece Ghoul are on stage running through the last little sound checks before commencing their set. I briefly get a chance to say hello to their frontman, Ivan, before they commence. They are playing tonight as part of some sort of contest but he is unsure on the details and slightly confused on how they proceeded to this, the semi-finals, a point where they genuinely have a chance on winning some portion of the cash prizes on offer.
Ghoul are currently offering up their debut EP, A Mouthful Of Gold, as a FREE download. You can also get a FREE physical copy of the EP at their official launch show at the end of the month.

Locked away in a basement somewhere in Sydney, scaring the shit out of each other and occasionally recording some music that describes how they feel.
