Community Radio
Real Transformation
Sydney's Community Radio are back with a new 7" on Tenorio Cotobade after last year's 'Sick In The Car' / 'Wildflower',
this time making full use of the vinyl surface to present a four-track EP. If their previous release saw their own brand
of Australian pop sprinkled with a dose of post-punk tautness, the first two tracks on this EP follow a somewhat warmer
feel, propelled by grooving bass and the organ's driving hum and punctuated by delightful and restrained guitar work
reminiscent at times of Richard Thompson. The outstanding title song was included in Ben Watt's list of favourite tracks
from 2014, after the band released it digitally.
'Aide De Camp' is another recording from 2014 which showcases Community Radio's prowess at combining a flowing and tight
sound with a lyrical approach. The sprightly guitar playing and smooth drumming make it instantly engaging, a shining
moment akin to other fine purveyors of pop craftsmanship such as The Sea and Cake. It is followed by the delicate and
frail 'Cruel Museum', which whispers this EP to a soothing end.
