It's the last day of 2010 and I'm in a Melbourne internet cafe sucking a bottle of orange juice with the nipple unscrewed. Over my shoulder a lady is reading academic literature and next to her is a guy watching porn. Unusual situations will be remembered. So will great songs. Here are a few.

Il existe au fond de mon jardin des créatures fantastiques. Celles que vous ne croiserez à moins que je vous en indique le secret. Il y a longtemps qu'elles peuplent mon espace, celui que je garde enfoui, à l'abri. Parmi elles, se trouve aussi Evelyn Morris, une ingénieuse australienne se faisant appeler Pikelet . J'adore me rendre chez elle, à l'orée de la forêt, après avoir traversé mon jardin. Chez elle, je pourrais rester de longues heures, à me remplir l'estomac de ses pancakes et à l'écouter me conter le récit de ses rêves passés. Son dernier [...]
Pikelet is one of those bands that you really just want to start throttle your junk too, I literally cannot get enough of these tracks, funny enough a Pikelet is defined as a thick pancake.. well I just want to shove that entire pancake into my mouth and the hell with chewing because this bad boy is just going to slide down my throat. The Ambient, Psychedelic beat stink, stink lining from Melborne, Australia (ew) comprising solely of the brilliant mind of Evelyn "shitkicker" Morris and when in full form band [...]
Just label this little number under songs not in Mel Gibson's Ipod. Aussie's Pikelet second album Stem has been out for some time now, doesn't mean we should ignore their latest video for standout track Weakest Link . Evelyn Morris bedroom pop vocals harmonize quite nicely with artist Laura Cashman adolescent like stop motion music video. This dulcet tune correlate directly with imperfect images of Morris coyly dancing embodying [...]
It's been a while since we first heard Weakest Link , the standout track from Pikelet's wonderful second album Stem . And now it has a video! Melbourne artist Laura Cashman assembled this beautifully childlike and tactile stop motion accompaniment, which picks up on Weakest Link's lyrical naivety and throbbing, propulsive feel. Stop motion music videos have taken off in a large-ish way recently, but there's a streak of self-awareness here that sets it apart: Evelyn Morris' paper avatar seems simply bemused about being caught in the middle of a line of twirling cut-out ballerinas. [Pikelet [...]
Pikelet - 'Weakest Link' ( mp3 ) Depsite released over a month ago, it's taken me this long to post about Pikelet largely because I've struggles to pick a track worth highlighting above the others. Stem is one of the strongest local releases this year, mixing bedroom pop with more experimental idiosyncrasies and the odd middle-eastern diversion. 'Weakest Link' has probably best endured many a-listen. Although I definitely appreciate the less direct tracks on the album and think they greatly contribute to its overall effectiveness, it's this pop tune, appearing in the album's [...]

When you think/eat Outback Steakhouse, you know for sure that it isn't "authentic" cuisine, but rather an Americanized rip off of Australia's great outback wonders. I can say [yes, from experience] that Australia is an amazing place with great cities, wildlife and music trends. And if you really want to drink Foster's in Australia, prepare to get verbally berated. Meet Pikelet , a one woman psych-pop project fronted by Evelyn Morris from Melbourne and her 2nd studio album entitled Stem . With songs like "Weakest Link" and "Swooping Buzzards", it's easy to see why she has [...]
photo from Consumer Reports I can't remember a previous January where there has been this much new music coming out, but I'm old and my synapses don't connect they way the use to. I do remember maybe a few releases trickling out at the end of January and then not much happening until March or April. Well, it's a new decade and we've hit the ground running, out with the old, etc. The last few weeks have been total pop overload, and to give you an idea of the crazy amounts of good [...]
Pikelet - Weakest Link Pretty exceptional narco-pop here from Pikelet, who's got a lot of practice in assembling loopy, trippy pop bliss in the first place. This, though, could be what's known as a "career highlight": droning, shuddering, fizzy brilliance that stimulates all the best bits of your brain relentlessly for two and a half minutes before quitting unexpectedly, leaving you wanting more like a depraved junkie. It's been a while since Evelyn Morris's debut album and along the way she's dabbled with some tropicalia sounds but here that influence has been tamed and [...]
With Animal Collective's tour plans coming to a Hiatus at the end of the year, it's to no surprise that web pages have been bombarded with various other rumours and leaking information of the band. The biggest being the new 5 track EP due out December, that is now confirmed and titled Fall be Kind. This has even overshadowed the upcoming release of their latest single 'Brothersport' which I think is a highlight from MPP and a wild decision of choice. Just so no other band can hold a title page for the moment they have [...]

Pikelet - Music Box Could Well Be The Answer Sounds like all that time in Portugal & Spain lately has had an impact on Evelyn Morris because this cut from her new EP, Not So Still , is surprisingly (and excellently) tropical. Well, it's surprising if you were expecting her to pick up exactly where the 2007's debut self-titled album left off. Logically, though, it makes complete sense: the loose, winding melodicism of that record always seemed kind of at odds with her work with Melbourne thrashers Baseball and True Radical Miracle. Here, [...]
Tu te souviens la vieille cour de récré ? Avec les murs tout gris ? On voyait même plus le "M+K=Amour pour toute la vie sans divorce" tellement le mur il s'écroulait de partout. Et les cerceaux empilés sous le préau, qu'on avait pas le droit de toucher sauf en sport !? C'était bête ça. Il nous restait trape-trape et puis les billes aussi. Sur le gris ça ressortait bien. Hey, tu dis à Evelyn de venir jouer ce soir ?! On lui demandera si elle arrive à faire danser les osselets mieux que le kangourou ! [...]
Although she'd never guess it, when Pikelet agreed to an interview with Blouse I instantly went blurry-eyed. I was nervously excited at the thought of picking the brain of one of my favourite artists. Normally I'd approach artists releasing new records, or stopping in Sydney during a tour. As a career journalist i've learnt to not waste my subject's time, as i don't like them wasting mine with anything less than a good story. But with Pikelet, or Evelyn Morris as friends call her, the exchange was less immediate and more personal. [...]
