Turkey The Bird - Album Review: Men, Fish, Boat
31 Oct 2024 // A review by Chris Chick Turkey The Bird is the greatest thing to come out of Taranaki since the Jurassic age, if not, at least since the great name of theSlacks who would have thought two magnificent specimens could co-exist in such hostile conditions. But this is about Turkey The Bird and their third album Men, Fish, Boat. When I took on this assignment, I could already sense the poetry that would come forth from my mouth to the pen, or in this case, a dodgy looking laptop.
Chasin Wolves - Album Review: Chasin Wolves
04 Apr 2024 // A review by Chris Chick If you like your music hard, fast and in your face, this is the album for you.

Furniss Brothers - Album Review: Drift Away
08 Dec 2023 // A review by Chris Chick The Furniss Brothers comes to us with the 12-track album Drift Away, which is really apropos to how my mind felt whilst listening to this beauty. I am not going to lie, at one point I was so relaxed, I feared my heart had stopped. This caused me to have a quick heart engaging running on the spot session to revitalise me. The Lakeside (3rd song on the album) really caught my ear with a very cool sounding guitar groove through most of the 2nd half of the song.
Lost Tribe Aotearoa - EP Review: Lost & Found
14 Jun 2023 // A review by Chris Chick I am a true ‘noob’ when it comes to the Lost Tribe Aotearoa, so I can assure you and the band that this will be as unbiased as possible. After hearing the first song, I think it is going to be hard to stay that way all the way through this review.
