Weekly News - December 27th

I'm a day early on this one, not that it matters as there has been a distinct lack of happening things in Brisbane this week.

  • Common People are upping the ante for New Year's Eve and putting on their first night to feature bands. If you haven't got plans already then you do well to head to Rosie's and bring in the new year to the sounds of Nite School, Secret Birds, Influenza, and Tell All.
  • You may have noticed a lack of the ubiquitous 'best of the year' list on Before Hollywood. Fear not as Cam is brewing a 2007 roundup right now, but if you can't hold out until next week to get another dose of inane ranking than head over to Rose Quartz. The blog has collected top 10 lists from a number of Australian and New Zealand artists, including our own Shiver Like Timber, Joel Saunders, and BigStrongBrute, and is worth a look if you want to see albums from M.I.A., Radiohead, Beirut, Panda Bear, Animal Collective, LCD Soundsystem, and Deerhunter arranged in assorted ways.
