PORPOISE SPIT
THEY ARE a rockin’ and rollin’ four-piece from Melbourne whose intensely sharp and scintillating blend of strumming, shredding and storytelling made putting in this column one of the easiest calls we’ve ever had to make. They describe their sound as “equal parts rosé-rock and suburban punk-ballad” – and honestly, we couldn’t have put it better ourselves.
THEY’RE FOR FANS OF Courtney Barnett, Midnight Oil and Joy Division.
THEIR LATEST RELEASE IS “Middle Of The Night”, a cinematic scorcher that makes full use of every second in its tight and tempestuous five minutes. The focal point is certainly the track’s mightily emotive, towering lead vocal (and rightfully so), but the polychromatic six-string interplay between Mill O’Sullivan and Elly Hewitt cannot be understated – especially in that breathtaking solo about three-and-a-half minutes in.
