It's hard to miss the Alvvays in this but it's definitely still uniquely Sunscreen.
This is a favourite of mine live (go see them!) and it's translated so well in the studio. Unbelievably keen for the EP!

This one definitely goes exactly where you don't expect.
I love the synth and lyrics are super charming. The drum beat is definitely the dude doing 140 on the highway - makes the song go by in a flash.

I'm so excited about Start Together. One of my favourite bands coming from QLD at the moment.
Stick around for the chorus on this one, it's an alt-indie cracker.

This track makes me feel like I'm driving down the street at 2am and people are looting every store in sight in slow motion. I really really like it.

Female-fronted Oasis but on acid and with a big PHAT outro.
Such an exciting act, I back this so damn hard.

That's it, I'm going to start skating or surfing - whatever Good Doogs want me to do, I will do it.

Oh god, she's so so good.
Lola Scott's sound becomes more and more realized with every release.
I literally could not tell you how you're supposed to top this as a song.

Think 'I Don't Care' era Fall Out Boy having beers and/or good times with Luca Brasi.
Super lovely (and appropriately gritty) punk just teetering on the right side of pop.
Love the new direction!

Eliza and the gang have pulled it off again.
They’re never an artist to lack feel or melody and in this case, it’s the perfect culmination of both. That pay-off at the end is simply world class.

Effortlessly-cool soul topped with terrifically unique voice.
For the fans of old school Chet Faker - one to keep an eye on for sure.

ZUMA have crafted a hugely distinctive sound, it's beyond interesting.
Shades of Tame Impala, Blondie and King Gizzard in this one, an extremely gripping listen and I can only imagine this triples in size live.

There is something so incredible about the way Noah crafts his songs.
Lyrically he presents such a casual yet gripping theme, and musically he structures his songs as free-flowing and as thoughtful as anyone. They scream for a live band yet are so perfect being these acoustic ear worms.
Go Yev.

Dreamy and boppy and straight out of the 2011 movie, Drive, starring Ryan Gosling.
In my opinion there can be no greater compliment.

Literally overflowing with feel good melodies and a lovely little comment on privilege that evoked a 'yep, nice' from me.
A whole stack of influences present in this one too, keen to see just a couple honed in on.

Massively dreamy with a chorus that's just begging to be played in big rooms across the country.
Can't imagine it'll be long until that's the case.

A personal highlight from Bigsound 2018.
Cannot wait to see the singalongs to this chorus live, can't even imagine the scenes.

Filthy - there's no other way to describe this song.
That build up to the last 30 seconds leads to one of the biggest moments in punk music this year, absolutely huge.

Yep, 5 stars for this one.
The shoegaze guitars, the Molly Rankin vocals, the amazing bittersweet chorus - THAT OUTRO. Egoism, I feel, have just firmly planted themselves as the one's to watch for 2019 and beyond. I cannot wait for more.

@Drummer, Questlove would like to have a word with you, this is simply incredible.
Such a stupidly well put together song. I can only imagine how hard a sweaty dancing crowd would get behind this.

This is one big time machine to late-December when everyone is in holiday mode.
Really strong melodies throughout and the production is super well done, the drop is an absolute cracker.
Keep your eyes on MDWS, big things coming.
