Overshadowed by their first 7″ Chop Chop Chop/Dirty Lies. But in my opinion this is way better! The third and I believe the last release from Australia’s the News. That Girl is a speedy tastefully arranged powerpunk cracker complete with piano and synthesizer. Splendid ladies and gentlemen!! I’m So Confused is a lovely complement. A soft, melancholy powerpopish “wrestling hit”(brottarhit in Swedish). Oh yeah baby this is hard to beat.

This is really bad. Can you post the Meat Puppets one again? :)
3rd single? What happened to their 2nd? Good post by the way.
Jay, I think we will drift apart more and more. You have to broaden your taste :).
Seriöst Peter, brottar hit? Menar du inte brottarhit? Skandinaviska är väl inte språket med de mest frekventa särskrivningarna eller?
Och det var fan vad Jay Thurston har blivit negativ.
Jodå det kommer att bli fl er och fl er sär skriv ningar fram över. Detta är bara början. Snart har anglofieringen tagit över tot alt. Ska bli kul att se Jays reaktion när han läser något om honom som han inte förstår ha ha.
Jodå, det var där för jag pass ade på att skri va ut hela hans namn i stället för bara för namnet, anglo fier ingen kan ju få ho nom att tro att Jay är ett skandi naviskt o r d .
I will try to listen to this again in a few days. They just a little wimpy for me.
Hey! I am learning Swedish…so you better behave. Hahaha
Ha ha we’re not talking shit about you Jay. Try google!
Don’t believe what Peter says Jay, he was back stabbing you while I just said that you probably have beautiful hair that smells like roses.
I always pictured Jay bald and skinny.
And I’ve always pictured him looking like this; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Fabio_Lanzoni_with_nephews.jpg
too soft but ok
I like aussie 70/80ties music
Another great 7″ rip!
Aussie punk releases were slim pickings back then. I remember wagging school the day Missing Link (the shop) were filling the shelves with this release.
this is not punk, its powerpop. this does not mean its bad, it just means its not punk.
HA HA HA HA thanks for enlightening me :D.
this one off the best fact.thank you kbd.
