| THANKYOU |
[May. 21st, 2006|05:40 pm] |
Last nights show in Sydney was amazing!! Thankyou everyone for coming to support!!
A huge thankyou to the incredible bands who played ; naked on the vague (a total force to be reckoned with), Say Cheese and die (amazing) and macromantics (inspiring)
It was such a positive show and it was incredibe to see so many people coming out in Sydney to support bands who play music for themselves and who in turn create some of the most interesting stuff in our local scene at the moment. We were so honoured to have them play last night!!
A huge thankyou to The Crayon Fields and Fabulous Diamonds for their support at the melbourne show which was also amazing!! They are two beautiful bands and we are so lucky to have such great friends. Thankyou to everyone in Melbourne who came to support.
A huge thankyou to Michael, for all his undying help with everything! We love you!
And the one and only Gary for his constant support. Where would we be without Gary??
We are going to the USA in less than two weeks. Our dates are all up on the myspace page. If you wanna give us a place to stay, take us dancing (or swimming somewhere) and feed us..we would love it. Tell all yr friends about our shows and come party!!! We will have cds and tapes and 7" and shirts on sale for the tour!
lots and lots and lots of love

And running behind the leather clad bike riding diablos come Kiosk, prancing around like those small, smart, naughty warm (maybe boiling!) blooded mammals that feasted on the carcasses of the dinosaurs in times past, to deliver 1.30 minutes of smashed up creaking bubbling lo-fi pop that's so satisfying I feel like a pervert each time I listen to it.
Kiosk- Tourist Attraction
These Australian teenagers have just released a noisy evil little dirty 7'' featuring this track in the very cozy and nicely populated (Little Wings, Mt. Eerie, Architecture in Helsinki ...) Artschool Dropouts label (nothing to do w the indie night in Brighton btw). It's called 'Growing Pains' and you should buy it cos it's worth it.
As Biffinz (thanks to 'em for being 'em) said in the old smokey days...'They are very tight but very loose at the same time, a bit like an indie version of Y Pants'.
I'd like to add that they do the best Shaggs drum smashing trashing and bashing we've posted in this blog since, erm, well, the Hospitals not that long ago.
They rock so effortlessly it's kinda evil, we'll watch 'em closely, I think they're up to something.
HAHAHAHAHA. |

| review from BEAT mag |
[Dec. 12th, 2005|05:43 pm] |
[ Kiosk ]
click!click!
I could name drop a list of their influences from yesteryear for the sake of comparisons, but what separates this band from their contemporaries is that they aren’t hell bent on rewriting their favourite records nor being the most technically proficient musicians to ever grace the stage, they write music for themselves and in the process come off more inventive, inspired and stronger for it.
With an energy, perhaps warranted to their youthful exuberance, it is in a live context that this band revels. Primitive in sound and unique in structure, coupled with a sassy yet imperfect swagger, Kiosk are far from your run of the mill ‘indie’ band, but rather a real force to be reckoned with. Quite simply, it’s punk rock to dance to, catchy yet not irritating and fun but no means novelty.
With a voice that would put the entire riot grrl movement to shame, and not only charms but captivates, Cat delivers her vocals with vigor and emotion, constantly commanding the audience’s attention. The instrumentation is at times minimal, all the more proving her vocals to be the forefront of the band. With Angie alternating between guitar and bass duties, leaving the setup either at times guitarless or bassless, this could quite easily be to their detriment, however they not only pull it off, they do it with conviction, refusing to compromise creativity or conforming to formulaic structure. Whilst on drums, the lively Jack Mannix, merely seventeen, thumps away at his kit with style and charisma, again demanding the audience’s attention and further contributing to the high energy affairs.
They play songs off their debut 7-inch as well as a number of yet to be released songs, however the only thing missing from tonight’s set is Jack’s backing squeals. Abrasive perhaps, but definitely a feature of the band that makes their recorded songs so exciting and strangely appealing.
Kiosk deliver music on the own terms, play what would be considered to most a short set and step outside the conventional confines of most current music. With plans to tour internationally, it won’t be long before this trio of Sydney-siders garner the respect they deserve, no matter how overdue.
