Live Review: BIGSOUND Live: Bad//Dreems

Even a couple of years ago the prospect of Adelaide miscreants Bad//Dreems killing it at an industry showcase like BIGSOUND would have seemed incongruous.

But, tonight they grab the conference by the throat and shake it for all its worth with a set of a assured and crafty rock'n'roll. By the time they finish their showcase people are still streaming in but no one is leaving, which speaks volumes by itself.

Bad//Dreems penultimate song is an awesome, and completely appropriate, cover of The Replacements' Bastards Of Young. Sounds tons like Westerberg to boot...
