I was thinking rock was dead but I am not kidding, there are some amazing tracks here. Right now i'm loving Beaches "Second of Spring." First track from The Asteroid Belt will remind of the Doors. Also, loving the feel of Dreamtime's Strange Pleasures record. Plus, find a better band name than King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard (previous sxsw fave names, "We Were Promised Jet Packs" from Scotland and "Dad's Porno Mag" from Seattle? or LA, cant' remember) - and their track is a fun listen.

Rock scene in Oz is much cooler than anything going on domestically these days and is one of the reasons I'm getting more sleep - nothing keeping me in the clubs until 2:00am 5 nights a week. More, i'm not seeing anything to excite me for sxsw this March - but that was upon first look, i may wind up paying more attention to the Ozzie stages/showcases and I wanna head to Australia for the tail end of festival season.
