(careful, it's not really radio friendly)
Credit: Triple J Unearthed In my usual Friday morning fashion, I’ve scrolled through the new releases on Spotify. I already knew the debut Nice Biscuit album would be there waiting for me. The Brisbane psych rockers have stirred quite a storm within Brisbane over the past year. I’ve seen them a handful of times now. […]
MoreI started to think the other day, what sets Radio Friendly apart from other media outlets? I’d like to envision this blog/YouTube endeavour to be a suitable mix of Vice, The Needle Drop and maybe even triple j. But without the shite journalism of some of these outlets; I’m speaking content wise. But why choose […]

MoreWorld renowned comedian, Ricky Gervais, says that you can make a joke about anything. As long as there’s context. Context is important in humour, whether the joke lands or not. So I’ll contextualise this article. Anton Newcombe, the lead singer of The Brian Jonestown Massacre, recently said a poorly articulated rape joke at the band’s […]
MoreYou know the old saying there’s no such thing as bad press? Meaning no matter how bad it gets, at least your name is out there. You’re recognised for something. Rarely does it ever work in your favour, Corey Feldman’s hideous 2016 album was smashed across the internet like a poor avocado on some hipster’s […]
