Winning triple j Unearthed High must be a dream come true for budding high school bands, but some winners have failed to further their success, unable to release a song since their winning track. But less than twelve months since winning, indie five-piece from Melbourne have defied this curse and released their debut, self titled EP. With soulful vocals, soothing guitars and synth, rhythmic bass and the subtle-yet-annoying tempo changes of "Chimera", this EP is a real success. Although "Chimera" consists of said tempo changes, it is quite an enjoyable song, along with "Carnival (Lobster Mobster)", "Skin" and the 22nd best song of 2011 (according to triple j's Hottest 100 of 2011), "Air", but I enjoyed every song on here. This is a truly good release and a joy to listen to.
8/10
