“Rock Song (Radio Edit)”—the high-energy new single from Greg Williams—does what it says on the tin… it really is a rock song.

This amped-up, high-tempo, two-chord thrasher rocks right out of the blocks with a wigged out guitar solo and a snarling vocal. Imagine Iggy Pop fronting early Psychedelic Furs and you’re halfway there.

It belongs on the radio so it gets a radio edit refresh paired with “My Blues (Uncut)” on a new double A-side edition, out on 1/9/2025, that heralds the ‘paper’ anniversary 12” vinyl release of “Stone On Stone” on 29/9/2025, including a new “Unturned” collection of unreleased tracks.

The edit lets the tape run with studio chatter and sonic artefacts. ”Plug in my amp I‘ll show you how it‘s done“, say the lyrics, so now the song kicks of with the live crackle and buzz of the intro guitar being plugged in!

Both sides are about flip sides… euphoria and depression. “Rock Song (Radio Edit)”, is about rock bands, celebrating energy and attitude and spitting in the face of inertia and apathy. In the protagonist’s world everything he cares about is gone but he still plugs in anyway: “I don’t care if the kids don’t come”.

“My Blues (Uncut)” is a self-mocking, riff-driven romp inspired by The Who and driven by Ashley Naylor’s snarling Divinyls-like licks and searing Jeff Beck styled lead guitar. The lyrics poke fun at rock clichés and vanity while battling depression, while the music declares the opposite!

“Stone On Stone”, released late last year, collected local and international airplay and featured in multiple best albums of 2024 and end-of-year favourites lists.

★ “Relentless songwriting mastery… a tour de force with echoes of Australian greats Paul Kelly and Grant McLennan.”—Chipper Saam, Indie Pop Takeout (USA).

★ “The crunchy guitar sounds of The Hoodoo Gurus and the melodic grace and vocal of the late Grant McLennan.”—Henry Lipput, Pure Pop 4 Now People (USA).

★ “Definitely a contender for album of the year or any year for that matter.”—Wally Salem, The Beautiful Music (Canada).

★ “The album is a hidden gem, made with love, wit, care and compassion… one of the best indie guitar albums of the year. Comparison points… The Triffids and The Go-Betweens.”—Rob Morgan, A Goldfish Called Regret (South Wales).
