We’ve just put the new album from Meanjin artist Fictions up on Bandcamp.

‘Only Children’ is a texturally cinematic instrumental outing centred mainly around abstract synth layering with some surprising twists.

Featuring James Lees and Spirit Lights.

🚨our weekly feature FORGOTTEN GEMS continues, we listen to brilliant albums which seem to have been forgotten.

#5 is #blackrebelmotorcycleclub #B.R.M.C. album from April 2001.

NME gave the album upon release 8/10. Pitchfork gave it 8.2/10.

Definitely one of my favourites from the noughties.

At 35 watts, the Bellringer is loud enough for any stage and makes a great clean pedal platform, but thanks to our tube driven Power Scaling and 1x12 form factor, it's also at home in clubs and coffee shops.

This one recently played Red Rocks with @timhanseroth and @brandicarlile

Spilt wax, intricate drawings and etched copper plates; what started as an evening spent drawing by candlelight led to the album artwork for In Rainbows.
