THE LIVING END ADD TWO EXTRA MELBOURNE SHOWS TO NATIONAL TOUR

Good day all! Much like last week, it’s been a little slower on the album news front again - it must be that time of year. Anyway, there’s still plenty to be excited about with releases from Selah Sue, Sam Sparro, Black Spiders, Regina Spektor, Battles, Cold Chisel, Santigold and more. Get psyched because here’s the news.

We saw some amazing local and interntional talent hit the stages of Splendour in the Grass on Saturday. In the first batch of photos we take a look at local heroes Architecture in Helsinki, Seeker Lover Keeper, Sparkadia and The Jezabels alongside international guests Cut Off Your Hands, Dananananaykroyd, Fitz and the Tantrums, Regina Spektor and the one and only Jane's Addiction.

Today marked the release of Regina Spektor's first ever live CD/DVD release: "Live in London" - and on her official YouTube page she's released two pretty beautiful examples of what we can expect on the final product - "Eet" and "Dance Anthem of the 80s". Check them out below.
