A spot of computer troubles have temporarily postponed what was intended to be a comprehensive survey of this year's newly released single-artist Holiday albums. But on this day in 1933, the 21st Amendment to the Constitution was passed and ratified, ending national Prohibition, and paving the way for a return to the Christmas tradition of drinking with good company. And so a hastily-constructed thematic feature is born. Join us, as we lift a glass to the season and the day with a decidedly mixed-bar set of songs celebrating holiday drinking. [...]

While Miller-Heidke would be a major talent just for her singing ability, she is also a first rate songwriter (with her husband) who understands how to serve her material for great effect. Everything is everything, according to the old saying. The only thing that matters is time. This is certainly true in physics. Nothing can be created or destroyed. It can only change forms. Therefore, the oxygen particles that Aristotle inhaled could now be part of Snooki. Who knows? It depends on time (and in this case, place). But while we all understand the importance of time, Australian singer [...]
Uplifting as it is, there are ghosts of childhood bike rides and sun-faded suburban scenes haunting the Polaroid-pop of Melbourne newcomer Emmy Bryce. It might be the hint in Emmy’s rhythms and phrasings of formative years spent watching early ’90s alt-pop stars on Saturday morning television.

It could simply be that there are few Australian songwriters making meaningful yet wilfully light-filled music in 2012. With its [...]

Acording to Kate, "Everything I've ever done has been a reaction against [...]
