IN RICO GLACIERS
Like ice cream for your musical taste buds this 10 track stunner will melt all over you until you're a complete mess. Silkily recorded from a mountain-view paradise, alongside legendary Brisbane producer Magoo, this album sounds like a dream and occasionally a nightmare. Tales of cannibalism, Kings Cross transvestites, infidelity, man vs technology are all woven together to produce one of the most unique sounding rock albums you'll hear this year.

CURRENT SINGLE - I'M NOT THINKIN' ABOUT YOU
This fresh as hell single has been added to triple j's rotisserie like a pig-on-a-spit being devoured at some Medieval themed party celebrating the return of Game of Thrones. The band joke that the song "sounds like the music your parents were digging... during their divorce" but that probably only applies to people who were conceived at a Fleetwood Mac concert. In any case the song is a rockin' good time sure to see you dance through any steamy break-up. Probably getting rave reviews.

I'm Not Thinkin' About You
rating:  4/5
Not many could pull off this kind of glam/T-Rex/power-pop thing, but this is just too much fun to listen to.

I'm Not Thinkin' About You
rating:  4/5
I'm getting some heavy Rocky IV vibes with this one. It's definitely nailing the uplifting power pop meets glam rock style.

You Don't Know What You're Missin'
rating:  4/5
There's a big splash of glam rock stomp to this and it's just what we need I think. A big, happy hit for summer.

This Madness
rating:  4/5
So much Supertramp, Dan. And that's great, because I love Supertramp.
