The Sleepy Jackson
I live on the Gold Coast of Australia. Its pretty zang if you like surfing and getting pissed. Which I do. But right now I've got a crook knee, I'm broke as a joke and its raining. Whinge, whinge, bloody whinge. But it was a great day for driving down to the point, staying in the car with the wipers going, and watching the screaming cold southerly tear up the coast. One of those days where there's some menace in the air... the swooshing of the tree canopies in the stinging gusts was like nature bellowing in cruel laughter, saying "get fucked" to the monstrosity that is Surfers Paradise.
On the radio during this dreamy episode was the new Sleepy Jackson single. The perfect soundtrack to forget the urban decay. The new album is called Personality - One Was A Bird One Was A Spider. Luke Steele you are a maniac.
