After all, there was lots to be excited about in the age of Market Day festivals and the collective - where 4ZZZ was run by it's members as opposed to one person or set committee.

Episode 139 of Live Delay features legendary 90’s alternative rock group Screamfeeder.

In their expansive career they have released 6 albums, four EPs, toured extensively and supported bands like Sonic Youth, Pavement, and Rollins Band.

4ZZZ Live DelayLive Delay - Ep 122 - Canyonero; Swaying BuildingsCanyonero:
Naming themselves after a fictional car that appears in The Simpsons,
Canyonero are a young 4-piece band that are starting to gain some steam in the Brisbane Indie Pop scene. Having been around for two years, they’ve released two EP’s, with one of them recorded by esteemed ARIA-award winning producer, Magoo. This particular recording was captured in the 4ZZZ Car Park as part of Youth Week celebrations held at the station, and shows off their talent for quick and tight melodies that got the entire area dancing.

4ZZZ Live DelayLive Delay - Ep 127 - Sex on Toast; The Eagle JunctionSex On Toast:
Sex On Toast are a funked up lot, specialising in overblown choreography and onstage antics, these new-jack swingers feel ripped straight from another era. Last month saw the release of their brand new single, “Oh Loretta”, a throwback track that could have been recorded in the 70’s, but is nevertheless yesterday fresh.
Equal parts righteous and ridiculous, Sex On Toast are known for their raucous and engaging live shows. These Festival regulars, have performed on numerous stages across Australia, from Melbourne International Jazz Festival and Adelaide Fringe, to Apollo Bay Music Festival and Woodford Folk where this set wa...2015-10-2955 min
4ZZZ Live DelayLive Delay - Ep 120 - White Walls; Secret BlackWhite Walls:
Starting in the early-2010’s, White Walls been tagged as as a Shoegaze band, but I think that’s discounting the whole picture. The 3-piece band consist of Dylan Black & Fuj McLean on guitars, and Rory Heane on Drums. The lack of a bass player is not missed in this trio’s sound, as the thunderous guitars more than make up the frequency band that makes you bob your head.
Releasing two EP’s in 2011, and their 2012 self-titled debut, they’ve slowly but surely been winning new followers that come in contact with their sound. Recently they were up in Quee...2015-10-2956 min
4ZZZ Live DelayLive Delay - Ep 123 - Asha Jefferies; SkullcaveAsha Jefferies:
Growing up in Brisbane, Asha Jefferies has many musical influences, including Ben Harper, Paul Kelly, Missy Higgins and Jeff Buckley. At the age of 11, Asha started playing guitar and soon after started writing songs. Her songs are characterised by distinctively silky, smoky vocals, and beautiful lyrical melodies expressing experiences of the heart and observations of the human dimension.
She regularly plays at Woodford Folk Festival, Regional Flavours Festival, Cleveland Buzz Festival, and the Urban Country Music Festival and has toured to the Darling, Southern & Western Downs with fRETfEST.

4ZZZ Live DelayLive Delay - Ep 112 - Sparkspitter; The Royal ArtillerySparkspitter:
Created from the ashes of other Adelaide bands finding their feet around 2011, Sparkspitter was an experimental outlet for Thomas Capogreco & Rohan Goldsmith. Challenging themselves to create fully fleshed songs with lap steel guitar loops as a basis, Matt Barlow came along to complete the rhythmic picture by picking up Bass duties, and that band was formed. Their music have seen them tour the country and play with such eclectic artists, such as Thee Oh Sees, OM, Love Of Diagrams & Civil Civic.

4ZZZ Live DelayLive Delay - Ep 111 - We All Want To; DreamtimeWe All Want To:
Formed back in 2009, We All Want To is the brain child of Tim Steward, namely the front man of Brisbane institution ‘Screamfeeder’ to discover some melodies and hooks in slower tempo’s. A bulk of the material that you’ll be hearing in this set comes from the self-titled debut album that was released in 2010, and 2013’s “Come Up Invisible”. The show we’re about to delve into was recorded last year at The Underdog, and was the book-end to what had been a successful Brisbane Live Music Week that was celebrated by 4ZZZ and all of its listeners...2015-02-2756 min

Soma Rasa was formed in 1997 by brothers Bill & Dan Hazard along with Shannon Jessop. Over their career, they’ve released three albums and have shared stages with the likes of Moby, Fatboy Slim, Roni Size & Regurgitator.
In 2005, they met with legendary LA hip-hop act Digital Underground to record the single ‘Say What You Say’, which was met with critical acclaim and lasted in the AIR charts for 12 whole weeks.

4ZZZ Live DelayLive Delay - Ep 68 - Brisbane Live Music WeekNo Sister:
No Sister are a young Brisbane band, not everyone in the band has reached legal drinking age yet. Almost. One influence sits on the tip of my tongue, Sonic Youth, of course there’s a few similarities between the New York of myth and legend and these river-city upstarts: the male/female call and response vocals, the loud effected jazzmaster/jaguar guitars.

4ZZZ Live DelayLive Delay - Ep 48 - School Girl Report; Amateur ChildbirthSchool Girl Report:
The duo known as School Girl Report hail from Bateman’s Bay on the south coast of New South Wales. Made up of the godhead of Samuel Miers and Daniel Oakman, they compose weird, erratic and an almost indescribable cacophony of sound. It’s often dark, perhaps industrial, but most import of all – it’s something fresh and different from the usual Live Delay stable – and hey! We EMBRACE difference here.
As far as I can see, they’ve released one tape via Do You Block called ‘Success is Dating School Girl Report’ but been a fairly active live band...2013-12-2056 min

Take stock, and relive some of the great moments in Live Delay’s recent history – nay, Australia’s history – and play some of the great tunes from the past twenty (or so episodes).
There’s no feature band this week – just a mixtape of great tunes featuring the likes of RAW PRAWN, FORCES, GHOST NOTES, GOD BOWS TO MATH and heaps heaps more. It’ll sway between the bangin’ and the sublime. It will rock your socks off...2013-10-2556 min
4ZZZ Live DelayLive Delay - Ep 38 - Raw Prawn; Useless ChildrenRaw Prawn:
I guess you’d call them a Sydney super group? Raw Prawn combine members from Holy Balm, Whores and Camperdown and Outs into one magnificent punk rock beast. They call themselves weird punk (so I believe) but it’s guitar music laced with urban depression and everyday minutiae. There’s some understated pop hooks lurking beneath these tunes as well. This set comes the band’s 2013 performance at 4ZZZ Happy Fest back in July 2013 and showcases the band’s excellent set of live chops.

4ZZZ Live DelayLive Delay - Ep 37 - Barbiturates; Kitchen's FloorBarbiturates:
Barbiturates are Roland Hlavka and Elliot D’arcy, two musicians known for their work in Brisbane psych outfit Cobbwebbs. This particular project emerged from eclectic rehearsal room jams that didn’t quite fit the CV of their former band – and thus the side project was born! Still channeling their DIY roots, Barbiturates sway between pop and psych, adding in generous additions of almost trip-hop sounding beats. They’ve release a bunch of music, but 2013’s Shades was the first actually put out in some kind of material form.

4ZZZ Live DelayLive Delay - Ep 36 - Forces; AnonymeyeForces:
Described as industrial sounding dance, Melbourne’s Forces create hard hitting and mind bending music suitable for extreme partying. A duo made up of Alex Akers and Thomas Henderson, the group call the likes of Chris Carter, John Foxx, The Prodigy, and Gatekeeper amongst their wide and varied influences. They’ve also played along side the likes of Gang Gang Dance, Light Asylum and Zola Jesus – just in case you were worried about their live credentials! This is a banging set and well worth staying in to hear.

4ZZZ Live DelayLive Delay - Ep 35 - DZ Deathrays; The Garbage & The FlowersDZ Deathrays:
Dynamic two piece from Brisbane hit their stride in recent years, graduating from intense house party gigs to the world stage after UK tastemakers NME cast their gaze upon DZ Deathrays. Well known for their intense and legendary house party gigs and their outrageous music videos, they released the well received debut record Bloodstreams in 2012.
This live set may be slightly more sombre than the usual DZ Deathrays experience, but still profiles many of the best angles of their recent work. Provided to Live Delay by our friends at FBi Radio in Sydney, this is a live set...2013-09-1656 min
4ZZZ Live DelayLive Delay - Ep 34 - Sucks; The Vasco EraSucks:
Sucks sound like a pack of loveable brats. A three-piece from Sydney, the band describe their music as ‘shit punk’ – arguably a slight misnomer, as their aggressive music is highly listenable, arguably continuing the great Australian underground punk music tradition.
Live Delay managed to catch the band when they were last up here, supporting Brisbane comrades Nikko at The Beetle Bar back in December 2013. It’s short and sweet but also immense. The band have got a forthcoming 7” available in October 2013 recorded with the help of Lincoln Brown from Housewives, but why not stay up and catch some of their live...2013-09-0556 min
4ZZZ Live DelayLive Delay - Ep 33 - Scraps; Screaming MatchScraps:
Kaleidoscopic music from the dawn of the 1980s, Brisbane’s own Scraps has carved out a unique niche within her local music scene. It’s no suprise – she produced quality pop music that just about melts people’s ears and hearts.
Follow up ont he well received Classic Shits 2005-2008 LP, Scraps released the excellent Secret Paradise 7″ on Bedroom Suck in 2012, which included gorgeous sythn-pop numbers like 1982 and Suddenly Yr In My Heart. This live set features everything many people love about Scraps, pulsating drum beats, verbed waves of synth and Scraps’ own understated but sweet vocals.

They released two long players,the 2011 By Cover Of Night and the very recently released Hidden Horizon.

Blending a mix of The Velvet Underground and The Jesus and Mary Chain, Brisbane’s Keep on Dancin’s have been regulars on the Australian live music scene for the past four years. An accomplished band having received much kudos from their immense debut record The End Of Everything, they’re also not fazed by the challenges of the stage, having played regularly throughout the country for some time. Live Delay was fortunate to catch them playing along side other Brisbane institutions such as Nikko and Ghost Notes back in December 2012 at The Beatle Bar.

4ZZZ Live DelayLive Delay - Ep 29 - Amateur Childbirth; Bitch PrefectAmateur Childbirth:
Amateur Childbirth is the stage name of Brisbane artist Ivan Matthew. Influenced by the work of Henry Miller, he’s an artist unafraid to delve into uncomfortable subject, illuminating everyday events with a cynical but earnest take on modern society – done all with just an acoustic guitar.
Live Delay were fortunate to be present to record Amateur Childbirth when he took the stage at Tribal Theatre back in May 2013 as part of the Guilt Retreat – a multi-disciplinary visual and musical arts series. Tune in to hear some honest live music.

4ZZZ Live DelayLive Delay - Ep 26 - Feathers; Dune Rats; OuterwavesFeathers:
Feather’s debut record Hunter’s Moon (2011) was one of the Australian music highlights of that year. This all female dreamy rock group conjure pop narratives with distinct psychedelic angles. Feathers can be gloomy, they can be transcendental and one could rattle off half a dozen influences here (Shop Assistants, The Shaggs, and so forth), but it really does the band a disservice to think of them simply as the sum of their influences. This set was recorded at the Alhambra Bar in Fortitude Valley Brisbane back in March 2012.
