Bloods

MATES boasted a packed line-up of Australia’s finest indie-rock guitar bands.

Head-banging hits for Bloods' triumphant return to their old stomping ground.

Here’s hoping The Blurst of Times returns to Sydney again next year.

"If only they’d brought some spark to disillusioned This Country, which closes the album on a bummer"

“We did recently get one funny Facebook message from this kid in America: ‘Don’t y’all know that Bloods is a gang? Dumb white people!’”

There was a lot missing at Veruca Salt's Brisbane gig but does it really matter when the music's that good?

"It’s a bit of a glimpse into how we recorded our EP"

Bloods show that you can rip out garage jams without sounding like shit; thank the whoa-oh choruses of MC and Sweetie, and the great guitar sound they squeeze from every tune.
