- Named is the second full-length album from Brisbane-based musical spoken-word artist Orlando Furious. The collection of songs on Named chronicles triumphs, love, failure, interpersonal political reflections, and candid introspection, evoking a gamut of raw emotion akin to a one man classical ballet.

- The great sneer on the face of Australia, directed at dolewave and its po-faced, offkey, fashionably talentless stylings, has -perhaps, I hope?- just about slipped pop-culture’s rather short memory.

- I have often found myself whinging about the lack of bands to fill the gap left after the heyday of riotgrrrl. Where now my Bikini Kills, L7s and Babes In Toyland? Lately I’ve been able to fulfill a few of those needs and even with locally sourced produce (ethical!), from the likes of The Bear Hunt, Waax or Marville. It never hurts to have a little extra thunder to add to the storm, however and so, cue Bad Bangers.
