'Everything Fell Off': The Struggles That Birthed Telenova's New Album, 'The Warning'

Carley Hall, Journalist

Carley Hall

Carley Hall is a Gold Coast-based writer who loves spinning a good yarn. She’s worked in print news rooms for more than a decade and now juggles young family life with a busy career in research communication, promoting all types of science from the dire and necessary to the weird and wonderful.

When she’s not doing all of the above, she’s dancing around her living room trying to brainwash her kids into liking her taste in music or getting out to see some gigs. Carley likes the heavy stuff most, but if it’s got hooky melodies, clever lyrics or off-kilter beats nothing is off limits.

Album Review: Mark Knopfler - Privateering
These split personalities shouldn’t work, but with such an experienced deft hand and heritage like Knopfler’s, it does, making for a memorable listen from one of the business’ most respected treasures.

Album Review: Redcoats - Redcoats
It’s the quieter moments that awake more interest; World’s Between and Mean Money allow them their epically embellished Doors moments.

Album Review: Artisan Guns - Coral
It’s a shame; there are moments to relish here, which is supremely frustrating, as there’s evidence of something more interesting lurking just beyond the album’s perimeter.

Album Review: Ball Park Music - Museum
Museum provides the same captivating, funny, rejoicing and despairing streams of thought offered up by Ball Park Music’s debut but with more stock taken, and is ultimately a confident step in an assured direction.

Album Review: Hand Of Mercy - Last Lights
All in all, Last Lights is a solid release and a welcome addition to the genre.

Album Review: The Spitfires - Songs From The Debt Generation
It’s hard not to start flipping imaginary two-finger salutes at the authorities.

Album Review: Drawn From Bees - The May King & His Paper Crown
It’s catchy, melodic, provocative and thoughtful all at once and deserves undivided attention.

Album Review: Band Of Frequencies - Rise Like The Sun
There’s nothing to complain about there and there’s very little to gripe about here.

Album Review: Imagine Dragons - Night Visions
As standalone songs they’re fine, they just alter the album’s trajectory slightly but it’s certainly worth a look into.

Album Review: John Mayer - Born & Raised
Overall it’s a nice, solid album; a few songs will be lost in memory but most will seep under the skin.
