I am a longtime fan of  ’sadcore’, so I dig the sound of Melbourne singer-songwriter t.k. bollinger, whose constantly changing music is about the transformation that sorrow brings. His band creates slow and minimalist electric blues, bringing out melody and a quiet intensity while making silence the fourth member of the band. Bollinger is inspired by artists on the fringes, such as UK doom metal band, Warning, Tasmania’s Bird Blobs, and old faves like Captain Beefheart.

I’ve been rocking out until the sweat flies on the dance floor to Melbourne band, Cocophonics, a classic all-original pub rock band with swampy, punky elements. Their sound is hard and driving, with an old school attitude. They describe themselves as progressive retro, rock but not roll. Inspirations include Bob Dylan, Lou Reed, Paul Kelly, White Stripes, Violent Femmes, Queens of the Stone Age, Pixies, and Iggy Pop.
