Having just released Real Feel – their long awaited second LP – we sit down with Simon and Alex from Sydney band The Holidays to find out what took the band so long between their first two records, the journey they went on to make the record – and we were there the moment they…

The film stars Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone, Jamie Foxx, Dane DeHaan, Paul Giamatti and Sally Field. Watch the trailer here and get excited! Who doesn’t love Spider-Man? We’ve always…
When I think about movies like Non-Stop, I like to imagine a bunch of guys in suits sitting around a table, somewhere in a Hollywood boardroom, with an elaborate multiple choice flowchart spread across the table. It’s littered with options, and the guys around the table work their way across and choose from the options. “So……
Released internationally today was the brand new trailer for the 2014 American rebirth of Godzilla. The film is set to hit cinemas in Australia on May 15, 2014. You can watch the brand new trailer below, as well as a special sound wave clip that was released yesterday to show off Godzilla’s mighty roar. As…
Certainly the most noteworthy of The Feed’s headlines for its February 25 episode was the proposed fatwa being put on a mission to Mars by the United Arab Emirates. Whilst this sounds like an Onion article or a bizarre pulpy science fiction plot, this is actually the situation many Muslims may find themselves in. Not…
It’s always a joy when an Australian film debuts at the top of the box office, and this past weekend was such a time. Home-grown horror sequel Wolf Creek 2, starring John Jarratt and Ryan Corr, took the #1 spot at the Australian box office over the weekend, beating out Mark Wahlberg-led war film Lone Survivor. The film took…
‘Claimed’ wasn’t all about our three new characters as most would have expected; instead, Rick’s plight was the highlight of this episode The Walking Dead. In continuing the bleak prospects that come with separation – and both the human and zombie threat that doesn’t allow for any sort of rest – we were split between…
From the first book that kicked off the international best-selling series and has sold over 8 million copies in print across 35 countries, Vampire Academy the film is being released in cinemas nation wide on March 6. From the director of Mean Girls and starring Aussie Lucy Fry, Zoey Deutch (Beautiful Creatures) and Sarah Hyland…
Biopics focusing on the lives of Australia’s music artists come few and far between. There tends to be a focus on criminals, which started with the string of Ned Kelly films (our first ever feature was The Story of the Kelly Gang), continuing over the last few years with the success of the Underbelly series…
Enjoy all 19 of our backstage interviews at Soundwave Festival in Sydney over the weekend, featuring GWAR, Pennywise, Filter, Mastodon, Mutemath, Deez Nuts, AFI, Walking Papers, Richie Sambora, Jimmy Eat World, Dir En Grey, Eagles of Death Metal and many, many more… The Festival continues in Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth this weekend! All the details…
Ahead of his show at the Perth Festival, we caught up with Icelandic composer and musician Ólafur Arnalds to discuss his latest album, 2013’s For Now I Am Winter and get a glimpse into his creative process. How are you, how’s the jet lag? Not too bad, my head feels a little bit foggy, but…
The Supanova Pop Culture Expo is soon to be kicking off for another year, hitting up the Gold Coast and Melbourne in April for two massive conventions. Featuring a great line-up of actors, voice artists, authors and more from all over the place, fans of sci-fi, fantasy, graphic novels, manga and everything else in between…
Thursday night saw Icelandic composer Ólafur Arnalds brave the warm Perth weather and make his Perth Festival debut at the festival gardens, treating the attentive and patient crowd to a selection of songs from his latest album For Now I Am Winter and more. Sydney composer Sophie Hutchings opened proceedings with a brief, but lovely…
Ladies and gentlemen, I have some good news for you: Sydney’s Sally Seltmann is back after four years with her latest solo full length album, Hey Daydreamer and boy, is it a treasure, stuffed full of indie pop gems. In all honesty (and without sounding too gushy), I have never before listened to an album…
Thursdays come around so quick eh? And with it comes the week’s last episode of The Feed. This episode took a slightly different approach – with a core focus on the third anniversary of the Christchurch earthquake (yes that was somehow three years ago). Before that though- we were treated, if that is the right…
Richie Sambora and Orianthi played their first ever show together down in Australia for a Soundwave 2014 sideshow at The Tivoli on Thursday night. Photos by Gwendolyn Lee.
It is rare that a film returns to the #1 spot at the box office, and it is even rarer that the film is an R-rated three hour crime epic about stock brokers. But Martin Scorsese’s The Wolf of Wall Street has reclaimed the top spot from the RoboCop remake, which debuted last week. Wolf has been an incredible success, having…
With the writers seemingly placing character development first, ‘Inmates’ continues the artful slow-burn that worked so well in ‘Alive,’ but this time they have four disparate storylines to play around with. Despite multiple arcs not working so well in previous seasons, ‘Inmates’ handles the situation quite nicely, patching each tale together with not-so-subtle easter eggs,…
The transitional space of the open road appears to be the setting most conducive to good storytelling for director, Alexander Payne. He gave us a disheveled Jack Nicholson on a mission to travel across the US to sabotage his daughter’s approaching wedding in About Schmidt (2002), a heartbroken Paul Giamatti taking a wine connoisseur’s tour…
Well, that was surprising. Not the fact that Rake is back on the streets— that was to be expected— but the fact that everything in his outside life has become so egregiously shithouse in such a short amount of jail-time. This is the episode where Cleaver Greene gets thrown into a landfill-sized hole, so that…
Given the success in recent years of ridiculous Z-Grade giant animal films such as Mega Shark vs Giant Octopus and giant animal disaster films likeSharknado, the straight-to-DVD market has been flooded with similar titles. The latest is Dracano. As in Dragon Volcano. Get it? Yep, that’s what we’re dealing with here. Dracano introduces us to Professor Simon Lowell (Corin Nemec), who has…
As we come to the end of the January/February “catch up” period for American films that were released at the end of last year in their home country (it could also be called “Oscar fever”, if you’re so inclined), we bring you the 14 films we can’t wait for over the year ahead. There are…
Something special must be in the water here in Australia, because Bruce Springsteen sure has been treating us well on his current High Hopes tour with the E Street Band; their second time to our shores in the last 12 months, which is a rarity in its own right. Following two nights in Melbourne, where…
Today marks the release of the indie film It’s a Disaster on DVD and Blu-Ray in Australia. Before the end of last year, I caught up with David Cross, star of the film – alongside the likes of Julia Stiles and America Ferrera – to talk about the release of the Todd Berger helmed film,…
Fans of Parks and Recreation will be looking forward to this one – a feature film that features both Adam Scott and Amy Poehler – A.C.O.D.! The film, which was a hit at Sundance, is getting an Australian release on Blu-ray and DVD on March 12, 2014 from Paramount Home Media Distribution. Digital and Video…
I think we would all agree that the following conditions must be met for a film to be considered a success: it must be entertaining, have a comprehensible plot and be populated with interesting characters. But sometimes a film comes along that fails to meet even one of those conditions.Outpost 3: Rise of the Spetsnaz is…
Dolly Parton played the QANTAS Credit Union Arena on Tuesday night and performed all her hits. Gwendolyn Lee was there to capture Dolly’s magic.
Superstar DJ and Producer Baauer is visiting Australia in March for the Future Music Festival. We had a chance to talk to him about his experience of working with G-Dragon on Coup d’Etat. One thing I wanted to talk to you about, when you worked with the Korean pop artist G-Dragon on Coup d’Etat. Can…
Larry sits down with Melbourne duo Client Liaison to talk about their latest single “Free of Fear” (watch the music video HERE), their tour with Miami Horror, their plans for their debut album and much, much more… Filmed in Sydney Australia at AU HQ in February, 2014.
Every year, St. Jerome’s Laneway Festival serves its position as the festival with its “finger on the pulse” on what’s new, what’s cool and what’s hot. By the time the festival rolls around, many of the bands who you had never heard of 12 months before are well and truly ingrained in your consciousness. triple…
