There are also several bonus episodes which will only ever available to Patreon subscribers. The podcast will be ongoing, with an episode every 2 weeks on average. When each […]

Tim and Kellie talk about FIVE ROOMS, how it came about, what we did and how we did it.  We explain the album title, *despite only really mentioning 3 of the rooms. We talk / go off on tangents about working with producer Anna Laverty, Kel’s tenuous grasp of modern recording technology, the “Tim songs”

At the end of 1991 into the early summer of 1992 we recorded our first album, Flour. Tim and Kellie chat how it came about and how we made it happen. There’s lots we don’t remember, or we half remember, or we think we remember, it was a long time ago! We marvel at the

In 1993 we drove to Sydney in Tim’s van, to record our second album Burn Out Your Name. We remember all the strange and funny details around the recording, and the songs themselves, and Kellie dives into her diaries for some “on the ground” insights into what we got up to. We chat about fighting

Tim and Kellie chat about our “weird” third album Fill Yourself With Music.  We were listening to a ton of early Flaming Lips at the time, we discuss their influence, as well as those of Sebadoh, and Seam, amongst other early 90s heroes of ours. Kellie reads from her diaries from during the recording session

In the middle of 2000 we finally got the green light to record our fifth album Rocks on the Soul. We traveled to Melbourne and spent three winter weeks in a tiny studio with producer duo The Pound System. It was a great if somewhat confronting session; Dean especially feeling pushed into unfamiliar territory with

Tim and Kellie sat down together in February and recorded this episode outdoors, in Tim’s back garden. The sound is a little different, and features intermittent cicadas, birds and general background rumble. Sorry for the long delay in getting this one out, it’s been a crazy few months! In 2003 we recorded our sixth album

In 2015 we’d been touring again, promoting the vinyl re-issues of our earlier albums, and our manager encouraged us to start writing songs again. We released the first single, Alone In A Crowd, and ended up recording a dozen more, which ended up coming out as our 7th album Pop Guilt. In retrospect the album
