New Drones Released Tomorrow


The Drones are rightly considered by critics and fans alike within the Australian music scene as the best band doing business within the boundaries of this nation. For good reason as well, they write awesome songs, they’re great live, and they produce a scintillating amount of noise.

Earlier in the year, the Drones baptised the newly constructed HiFi bar in Brisbane with a set that not only blew the minds of all who attended, but also moved the Indo-Australian tectonic plate by one hundredth of a millimetre, such was a power of the inspired rock unleashed from the instruments of Lilliard and co.

The good news is that the Drones will release a live album tomorrow comprising of tracks from this set. I’ve been lucky enough to score a preview of the album, and I hope to write up a few words about it by the end of the week.

In the meantime, you might want to have a listen to an example from the record – Shark Fin Blues.
