THRASHING TEENS

the dreamers e.p

Young Heretics is the brainchild of Melbourne based duo, Matthew Wright and Kitty Hart - eccentric twins, both with a love of warped pop music and sonic invention. The dual vocal attack incorporates theatrical soundscapes, driving beats and a massive selection of other instruments to create a dynamic and inventive sound that is sure to send shivers down your spine.

Having written together for over 15 years, the musical chemistry between the two is evident throughout every aspect of their sound. Creatively and professionally beyond their years, the few shows they have performed have caused a huge stir amongst punters and industry alike.

“The Dreamers E.P” is the band’s debut release, and will be released digitally via iTunes on August 31st. A limited run of CDs will be sold at live shows in the coming months.

DZ

I think its about time we here at Thrashingteens blog about DZ again because they have been doing some cool things that make us like them more and more. First thing that brought the attention to them was their break through video of them drinking a bottle of Jager to their song The Mess Up, Next they announced that they would be setting off on a 'free beers tour party' if they won the Uncharted competition and the $25,000 bounty.

Now recently a couple of things have got us excited, after creating a fair bit of buzz and attention from labels big and small they have signed to Brand new Brissy Independent label Useless Art Records, having been created for the sole purpose of putting out DZ's debut EP. Next They have just released a killer new track Bad Blood from that debut EP. Its a rip roaring and high intensity track which showcases their ability to mush punky, party and extremely catchy elements into songs that last longer than most virgins.

Lastly they are doing a lap round the country with them other brissy Punk/Indie favs, I Heart Hiroshima, and playing a DJ set in the Jager Cube at Splenour!!! Plus if your From the Sunny Coast of live with 100 miles of that coast then you better attend one of the best night of music the place has ever seen. The froth levels are pretty high..

SYDNEY: Fri 25 Sep @ Spectrum
MELBOURNE: Sat 26 Sep headlining Spring Tones @ Roxanne Parlour
HOBART: Sun 27 Sep @ Brisbane Hotel
MELBOURNE: Wed 30 Sep @ Northcote Social Club
