Go you good thing! Congratulations to British India on their Top 10 debut in the National ARIA Album Charts despite Mother’s Day madness. Though just quietly, I think a lot of mothers would have been pretty damn disappointed to open their presents and find Susan Boyle, Mark Vincent, Andre Rieu or Michael Buble CDs instead of British India’s kickass Avalanche.

Seriously, nothing says “I love you, Mum” like a fiercely independent rock record by four nice, polite, young boys. Especially if you tell her it’s a must-have for all CD collections and widely acclaimed by people whose opinions matter way more than hers:
