Press Club - Untitled Wildlife

    


  And another song that went down very well indeed on this week's show...

  Press Club (https://www.facebook.com/pressclubmusic) are a quartet from Brunswick, Australia. They've just released a terrific album titled Endless Motion and if you're getting a feeling of deja vu it could be because I featured them a few months ago when they released one of the singles from the album  https://justsomepunksongs.blogspot.com/2022/05/press-club-cancelled.html




  I mentioned that they produced "a powerful eruption of alt rock meets punk rock that's seen them compared with Husker Du." Now that the full album is out, the expectations of it being a great listen have been proven well founded. Vocalist Natalie Foster manages to mix melody and rage to great effect, she's a very fine singer. The rest of the band; Greg Rietwyk (guitars), Frank Lees (drums) and Iain MacRae (bass), offer up the perfect accompaniment. It's available on vinyl (transparent yellow or black), cd and digital download : https://pressclub.bandcamp.com/album/endless-motion

  The song I'm highlighting today was probably the most popular song on a show that seemed to go down very well with the folk who listened live (the show will get uploaded to Mixcloud on Sunday if anyone wants to check it out). It's a passionate commentary about how climate change is causing the worst bush fires the country has seen. Australia's getting burned to the ground. As a bonus, you can also watch a recent live performance of the song recorded at The Zoo, Brisbane, on 20th October :
