Sydney, Australia’s Flickertail play guitar-fuelled retro-rock inspired in equal measure by Airbourne and the Arctic Monkeys.
Their debut EP, Hurry Up and Wait, received rave reviews and radio play from Australia to the UK and everywhere in between. Subsequent singles continued the trend, and their latest is due out on 20th June from Golden Robot Records under the title single ‘Anything You Like (Live in the Studio)’.
The song is said to feature a massive chorus, muscular, melodic guitars, and a pumping, popping rhythm section that swings like Tarzan. It’s about truly & honestly believing in yourself, even when other people don’t approve or disagree with what you’re doing. Hence the chorus – “You can call it anything you like” – It’s about not caring what others say, and that you’re still doing this, still going to follow this road as far as it goes and damn the consequences.
You can order it here.
Last month, they released ‘Small Town BBC Murder Mysteries’ and that can still be obtained here.
“Through sickly-sweet guitars and call-backs to the worst decisions of our young lives, this song tells the story of a reformed grog monster looking back on his glory days,” came the band announcement. “A lot of us dread settling down and living a quiet life, but if you’ve enjoyed life in the fast lane a bit of silence can do you good.”
