One thing I'll be compelled to mention, my intention:

Now that I have got your utmost attention, I'll venture

@Peace New Record Breaks Boundaries in Space & Time



Check out this mean NZ record! it reminds of that buzzy passage out of Meno no not Menopause
haha where Plato is talking about how everyone has a pair of wings attached to their souls
and their attached to the gods that are rolling round in the Sky. And you kind of piggy back on them and you lean over and see the Forms that are the pure essences of Beauty, Justice and the Good!!!

The record also has dope influences of space and time caving in on itself. I reckon Satre's ghost may have smashed out some synth riffs while high on mesculine playing a synthesizer on a couple tracks!

Super dope record. Check out the homies youtube channel here:

I swear to God T&H are like the equivalent of Trailer Park Boys accept the Canadian rapper 
is Tom Scott and Haz Beats is his friend who gets locked up in the movie! Outstanding work!!!

On a side note I was also super impressed with Lorde's Taite victory speech. A lot of people have been chatting about it online and I was super impressed. I thought the rumours of her being a genius were silly until I saw here talking. She seems like a seasoned academic, but she has read over 3000 books so thats kind of more reading than you do for a degree up to the highest level lol. Undeniably a great NZer!!! and she loved this record too :)

BRAVES (NZ) - Official Debut E.P - Massive sound!!!



I saw these guys play at Ding Dong club a while back I've finally got my hands on the streaming copy of their debut E.P that is self-titled. This is for fans of hard-core, rock and GC's all across Australasia.

I talked to their lead singer at the gig and he told me Chad from the Rabble was producing, mixing, recording the record and man what an epic sound. The drums slay and the tones are great from the start of the E.P to the end. BRAVES are one of my favourite NZ bands around so catch them on the road as they are on tour real soon!!!
Moss

P.S- I'm really stoked they recorded "5 Years" that song rocks hard-core!!

Official Lyrics for "5 Years" by Braves 

Five years from now
and she's permanent on my mind.
A splinter in my gut to form a great divide.
I'm absent, defiant, as she sits there in silence
it's lonely decay, my only escape in time.

And it just won't end (x3)

I'm broken, drifting out at sea
and I think I've lost something inside of me.

Ten years from now,
and I'm all that's left by her side
self-consciously determined by our wasted time.
I'm fucked up and fragile,
this consistent battle is breaking my will,
her eyes never leave me still.

And it just won't end (x3)

I'm absent, defiant, as she sits there in silence -
it's lonely decay, my only escape in time.

Her bright eyes glow - bright eyes show.

The Neo-Kalashnikovs & Force Fields - North Island NZ Tour in May (NZ Music Month)


The Neo-Kalashnikovs & Force Fields - First leg of the NZ TOUR 2014

Forcefields (WGTN) and The Neo-Kalashnikovs (AKL) plan to decimate the North Island’s main centres; 
Auckland, Hamilton and Wellington in May (NZmusic month). They aim to build local buzz around their new singles “Zeroing” & “Treat Me Right”

The tour came about from a chance encounter online. The bands have never met so it will either be a 
saucy first-date or perhaps a steamy love affair who knows? There might be a shotgun wedding in Auckland, a motel honeymoon in Hamilton or an expensive divorce in Wellington. What’s going to 
happen in Palmy is anyones guess? One thing is for sure though both bands mean business!

With Forcefield’s solid live reputation in Wellington and The Neos heavy radio play on Hauraki FM 
this is a tour for NZ rock fans nationwide. From the angst student to the tough nut tradey and all 
those uptight brain surgeons in between ‘we will rock you!’ With brain-splattering bass, face searing guitars & soul wrenching vocals they’ve got you bro! 

Tickets available on the door for just $10 and $15 with your very own signed CD

Tour Dates:
Friday May 2nd - Tabac, Auckland
Saturday May 3rd - Altitude Bar, Hamilton
Friday May 16th - The Royal, Palmy
Saturday May 17th - Bodega, Wellington
