New Music Friday Review: 2nd April. We Never Have Sex in Limbo on April Nights Anymore

 "We Never Have Sex Anymore" by The Offspring

So this is the second single from the band's upcoming tenth studio album "Let the Bad Times Roll" and I have to be honest here, I don't know if this song was intended to be funny or what the purpose of writing it was, it's this jaunty song with horns and all where Dexter complains that he and his partner never have sex anymore or has he describes it a "roll around on the floor" and then "If you won’t violate me, well will you just at least aggravate me?"...the song is The Offspring trying to be funny with a song for old people trying stuff their soft marshmallows into the piggy banks and it just comes out sounding all sorts of wrong...I'll stick to "Why Don't You Get a Job" for Offspring brand comedy.

Rating: 3/10 


"Sip It" by Iggy Azalea feat. Tyga

So I don't think anyone other than Iggy Azalea's fanbase gives a shit when she releases new music however we got this nightmare that really only is memorable for two reasons, the first being the line in the chorus about sipping pussy like its Styrofoam (WHY would anyone sip pussy as though its a god damn Styrofoam?) and the second where Tyga announces he is going to cannonball into this girl's vagina so he either gets a run up or does very strange things to his penis... this song is just wretched in every conceivable way...avoid it.

Rating: 1/10


"Limbo" by Glades

So Aussie indie pop/rock act Glades is one of these pop/rock acts that I've been keeping an eye on, I'm not sure how close they are to a breakthrough on the ARIA charts but this song from the upcoming album called "Planetarium" is pretty damn good, for one thing is plays to the momentum two people know they want something more but just not sure how to move forward to that something more. I love how instrumentation plays to and reflects the uncertainty these two people are feeling. This is good...check this out!.

Rating: 7/10


"April Nights" by Shag Rock

Brisbane based indie surf rock act that I've only just found out about and yeah, this song isn't bad, if you like a band like Ocean Alley then this band's sound would be a nice fit, granted Shag Rock are a bit more colour in their surf rock sound with the guitars and drums. There's definitely a chill vibe I really like here. Check this out if you like chill rock music.

Rating: 7/10
