The S-Bends Sydney, Australia
One slip & you’re back (The Go-Betweens, Paul Kelly, The VU ‘69) but somehow still stuck in the now - a Sydney stain of expensive rent, boredom, the mist off of the Archibald Fountain, Harry’s Cafe de Wheels, cheap Jetstar flights, broken guitar strings, cracked paint, indoor plants. ... more

There is something about Australian 'indie' pop that is clearly unique and second to none when at it's best. Drawing on a long and proud history arguably beginning in the post-punk era of the late 70's influences such as The Go Betweens and early Triffids can be heard. There's also a deliberative nod to the Dunedin Sound of bands such as The Clean and The Chills.It's unassuming, jangly guitar with shared male & female vocals.
