Introducing the Bayside Beat of The Gnomes! "This Australian kid is making music like England in 1964-66 never ended. Incredible. Tunes for miles." - Jay W Babcock (Arthur Magazine, USA) "I love these guys!" - Ted Carroll (Rock On/Chiswick/Ace Records, London) Although they emerged from Melbourne bayside outer suburbs onto the local live scene with their fresh and spirited indie-rock update of the garage-beat sounds of The Easybeats, Kinks and early Beatles only a year or so ago, Gnome actually started out as a bedroom solo project for teenaged singer/songwriter/ guitarist Jay Millar a few years back. Jay, playing everything himself, started recording and releasing a steady succession of material - quite a few albums' worth - on his own Goblin Records label via Bandcamp. Realizing he needed a band to start playing out, Jay approached some like minded players from Frankston's rehearsal hub Singing Bird, and with Jay on lead vocals and lead guitar, Ned Capp on guitar, Olly Katsianis on bass, and Ethan Robins on drums, Gnome became a band. Early in 2025, the last solo Jay recordings released under the Gnome name caused something of an international underground sensation when the Bandcamp only I Like It EP - four songs of kranked up Kinks-style mono riffage - was posted by a Spanish garage-punk YouTube page and quickly clocked up over 50,000 views. At the same time, the band quickly began gaining attention on the thriving Frankston scene and around Melbourne. They started breaking out, sharing bills with the likes of Drunk Mums, Skegss, Split System, The Prize, The Unknowns, Cosmic Psychos, Hockey Dad, Guitar Wolf, The 5.6.7.8's, The Breadmakers, Loose Lips, fellow Frankstoners/Singing Bird alumni The Belair Lip Bombs, and, on a quick trip to Sydney, Cammy Cautious & The Wrestlers. And now, finally, we have The Gnomes' debut album. Twelve killer tracks that combine the best of the '60s with the best of today. Twelve killer tracks that show off assertive and accomplished songwriting, singing and playing and an explosive and authentic swinging group sound. Twelve killers slices of raw rock'n'roll running the gamut from the savage Rhythm & Blues of "Play With You" and “Better With You” to the vibrant beat pop of "I'll Be There" and "I'm Not The One", with forays into the heavy reverb psych of "Stung", the Cavern/Star Club stylings of "Flippin' Stomp" and the first flyte jangle of "Time Will Tell" along the way. There’s more of course, including a new version of that Kinks-style kranker “I Like It” for good measure. Frankston’s Fab Four are taking their sound to the world. Join them for the ride! credits Recorded at Singing Bird Studios, Frankston, with overdubs recorded in Jay's bedroom. Mixed and produced by Jay Millar. Studio engineers Andy Simpson and PJ Byrne. Mastered by Andy Simpson.

**LTD 250 COPIES PALE ALE YELLOW VINYL & LTD 250 COPIES STOUT BLACK VINYL** You won't believe it! Cosmic Psychos return with astonishing confession "I Really Like Beer"! 40 years+ of stupid, clever punk rock continue with a brand-new "concept" album about beer, although each earlier album released by the guys has been kinda concept album about it too. The beer fathers of Aussie punk sounding like the Ramones fronted by Crocodile Hunter, they write songs in a distinctly down under manner about drinking, fighting, roadkill and best times. The lads bludgeoning take on punk has proven durable, influencing everyone from L7 and The Meanies to The Chats and Amyl & The Sniffers. The noisy punk trio was originally formed by Bill Walsh, Peter Jones and Ross Knight around Melbourne, ca. 1985. Robbie Watts replaced Jones on guitar in 1990/91, and after a hiatus, 2005 the Psychos went to the studio to record a new album with new drummer Dean Muller (ex-Voodoo Lust) replacing Bill Walsh. After the shock of the tragic loss of Robbie Watts in 2006, it was an option to drop the brand "Cosmic Psychos". But Knight was overwhelmed by the grief and support of the fans, so he decided, with full support from Robbie's kids, that "There's more beer to be drunk!". John McKeering (from The Onyas) had already been friend of the band for quite some time, and in late 2006 he was chosen to play guitar with Knight & Muller from that point on. With a legendary debut EP, almost a dozen studio albums, a handful of live ones too, plus a fan funded documentary with a rather prominent alternative scene cast under their belt, the blokes you can trust still deliver 12 new tracks of straightforward, lager-soaked punkrock for fans of Celibate Rifles, Radio Birdman, early Saints, mid-period Ramones, Hard-Ons, C.O.F.F.I.N. and Stiff Richards. The new record is classic Psychos, Aussie Punkrock as raw, loud and gloriously dumb as ever - with the occasional life lesson hidden under a pile of riffs.

GRYTT - 'GRYTT'

Details

Debut release from Geelong's power packed trio of seasoned Rock stompers feat: 'Lightning' Ben Watkins (ex- Warped), Buzz Munday (ex- Bored!) and Adam Doherty (ex- Spaghetti Westerns). GRYTT blend oz-rock sonics with proto-punk attitude and noisy alternative. GRYTT's self-titled, debut album sounds like Lemmy played wet nurse to the child of Husker Du and Wipers. Buzz's incredible and relentless drumming providing a clattery backdrop of 'graveyard-shift-at-the-foundry'-style pummeling as a vehicle for Ben and Ads' solipsistic and a-rhythmical guitar and bass flailing's and a collective, spirited series of fatuous lyrical declarations declaimed with such intensity that they sound positively life enhancing; their down and dirty, sea-faring strut is a catchy slab o'distortion driven melodic heaviness, that is, these Aussie's prove once and for all that their sense of dynamic is both intenser and immenser than the other kids on the block! Equally inspired by the likes of Husker Du, Black Sabbath, Wipers, and ZZ Top (among many others), Geelong based rock band GRYTT blend oz-hard rock ideas with noisy proto-punk attitude. White vinyl with a one-sided inner. Limited to 200 copies.
