Last Quokka - Cost Of Living

 


  One of my favourite albums of last year was Disconnected by a band from Perth, Australia called Last Quokka (https://www.facebook.com/lastquokka). I featured one of the songs (and told you what a quokka was here : https://justsomepunksongs.blogspot.com/2023/05/last-quokka-disconnected.html). 

  Now they're back (they being Trent (vocals), Carlota (drums), Kirill (guitar), Justin (guitar) & Ray (bass)) with a new song and it's a lively old thing. 

  A few week's ago they posted; "We're fed up. Rent and bills are through the roof. Weed is almost cheaper than fruit n' veg. Saw an avocado for 25 dollars the other day - shit you not. Meanwhile Albo is giving more tax cuts to the rich and spending 8 BILLION on nuclear submarines. What a crock!"

  And that's what the new song deals with. You can find it here :  https://lastquokka.bandcamp.com/track/cost-of-living

  The sound of a band finding it hard to put dinner on their plate, this is Cost Of Living...
