Silver
Coin, Another Day, Paper Aeroplane and Here We Go Again were

Album Review: Disturbed -
Indestructible
This week, we take a look at one of
the biggest surprise packets of
2008. Already, it has been one of the best selling albums of the year -
but is it only because no one else buys physical albums anymore?

Album Review: theredsunband - The Shiralee
Fresh off the shelves after what seems
like some time getting it there; Sydney’s current favourite
indie-sisters-and-a-bloke combo deliver the goods with a brash
sophomore confidence and sombre
streak.

Gig Watch: Powderfinger -
Upstairs Downstairs Tour
One thing you do realise, more so than the level of quality the guys
have churned out since the mid-90s, is just how much a lot of these
songs mean to the crowd. Sean Lynch reports from The Forum in Melbourne.

Soundtrack Review: Indiana Jones & The
Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
With the hype surrounding the first Indiana Jones
film in last twenty years slowly settling, we thought there was no
better time to take a look at one of the driving forces behind the
success of this Hollywood icon .... THAT theme song!

Gig Watch: The
Thrills - Live
at HiFi Bar
The
Thrills showed tonight that it doesn’t take a major name
stadium band to put on an awesome, engaging and truly fun show. It was
also their long awaited return to this country, and first tour for
their latest release, Teenager,
hence an almost full venue welcomed them back.

Feature Album Review: Coldplay - Viva La Vida or Death And All
His Friends
Something is missing. Parachutes
and Rush of
Blood were albums that jumped out at you immediately -
with songs that were so heart-breakingly familiar, personal and
ultimately wondrous. Viva
La Vida seems to feel like it's keeping the listener at
arms length.

Album Review: Moby - Last Night
The album does
deserve to be on the shelves and in the clubs and in our 1998 laptops
bopping and tripping and lulling and melodically soothing us into a
happier make believe world.

Album Review: The Futureheads -
This Is Not The World
Let’s
get this sorted right up front. The
Futureheads’ fourth release (three
albums and an EP) "This Is Not The World" is nothing short of a rocking
good time.

Album Review: Tokyo Police Club - Elephant Shell
Garnering success from their "A Lesson in Crime" EP and "Smith" EP in
2006 and 2007 respectively, they’ve quickly risen to new indie heights
with their perky sound.

Soundtrack Review: Forgetting Sarah Marshall
What is interesting here is that the two songs featuring the fictional
band within the film, Infant Sorrow, probably aren’t as horrendous as
they theoretically should be. They’re ridiculous, but not bad...
musically at least.

Album Review: Duffy - Rockferry
Every
month there is a new, supposedly shining, star amongst the throng of
female artists coming from the UK. Winehouse, Leona Lewis, Lily Allen
and her many shadows... the list extends beyond this because the
turnover is so high.

Album Review: Flight Of The Conchords - Flight Of The Conchords
While the Flight of the Conchords self
titled album, which is made up
of "cleaned up & honed" versions of the songs taken from their
cult
hit HBO series, delivers some pretty catchy beats - it's sadly the
comedy which has been lost in the
transition from performance to the studio.

Album Review: Cut Copy - In Ghost Colours
To the listener unversed in the art of modern electro (the indie-pop
dilettante) Cut Copy brings to mind the wave of New Romantic 80s
synth-pop. Boppy enough for the dance floor, but with a great cut (Hearts On Fire)
that can be trimmed for radio play.

Album Review: The
Kooks - Konk
After reading that
they had around 80-90 songs prepared, its disappointing that some of
the ones that appear on "Konk" were chosen. Our Web Wombat reviewer
wonders if the rest were
any better, and if not, it’s a worry that these ones were considered
the best.
