Presented by Third Eye Stimuli Records, Blossom Rot Records, The Vanguard & Great Southern NightsWe bring you a huge double album launch celebrating two new records from Melbourne alt-rock / dream pop group Arbes and Sydney "stargaze" rocker Julia Why? with special guest Misty Lanes Space Station in support.
Arbes' debut record 'Counterways' invites listeners into an unusual sonic world of atmospheric depth. Comparisons can be drawn to New York post-punk of a more colourful bent, running Blondie all the way through to Gang Gang Dance. Counterways is a gentle warmth rubbing against the frisson of something verging punk, in the exploratory and not commodified sense. The mythical and the urban converge: dense, ghostly reverberation meets the functional whirring of a city. But most prominent is the sense of something blissfully airborne tugged gently to the earth; that is Arbes’ own region.
Julia Why?'s new album 'Dust Suspended On A Sunbeam' encapsulates Julia's signature shoegaze rock sound, also known as "stargaze". As a three piece the band creates a huge, fuzzy wall of sound with ethereal vocals.
