Holy Shit! How much better can Pyramid Rock get?!

Just when you thought it couldn’t possibly get any better, here’s the second and final lineup announcement for the best new year festival in the land!

You get some locals, you get more internationals, you got indie, you got hip-hop, you got the deejays,  you got some sweet country…

MIDNIGHT JUGGERNAUTS will be taking you into their galaxy with their cosmic disco tunes….Once were kids OPERATOR PLEASE will keep you entertained with song about ping pong and other worldly issues…Augie March‘s highly talented front man GLENN RICHARDS will be gracing the Pyramid stage. Stand idly by as he romances you with tracks from his highly anticipated Debut solo album “Torpor and Spleen”.

Still hungry? What about something sweet from Belgium, like DJ AEROPLANE, flying in to Full Story >>

Holy Shit, it’s Split Seconds!

Blessed, blessed, blessed i tell you…blessed with an embarrassment of indie rock riches is what we are at Shiny HQ!! If you haven’t had the good fortune of seeing or hearing SPLIT SECONDS then wrap your eyes and ears around this little charmer!

Split Seconds are from Perth. (that’s the same place a little band called The Triffids came from)…and you won’t have to listen very hard to realise that. ‘Bed Down’ was released as a taster to their forthcoming ep and debut album due sometime in 2011.

Try not to like it…i dare you!

Holy shit, it’s re:enactment!

Really, does indie-rock get any better than this?! I don’t think so!! The latest Shiny office professional crush, well today’s version anyway, is Brisbane post-punk-electo-warriors re:enactment – oh my, they will be embarrassed by my fandom!

But honsetly, if anyone can email and tell us why every radio station in the country isn’t playing this we’d appreciate it!

Check out this super fun video for ‘Problematic’, one half of their double a side single. It rocks!  Just don’t say we didn’t warn you!

re:enactment, every home should have one!
