Somewhere in between art rock and wistful pop lie Sydney four-piece Sparkadia, whose debut album 'Postcards' is quite possibly the most replete and accomplished debut you'll hear this year. Formed by childhood friends, 25-year-olds Alex Burnett (vocals, guitar) and Dave Hall, (drums) in 2004, the band became a reality with the addition of Nick Rabone (bass) and Tiffany Preece (keyboards, guitar, vocals). Together, they write modern pop songs, pop songs that explode and shimmer with choruses that never leave your head and hooks that floor you on the first listen. 'Postcards' offers up a dozen snapshots of life that meld bittersweet lyrics and floating melodies with a sunny spin on heartbreak, including the singles 'Too Much To Do', 'Morning Light' and 'Animals'.

On first single and title track: 'Funny track, wholly written with bass and drums not unlike a lot of the Dark Satanic Mills EP. Quite distinct from the rest of the album structurally. Thematically a return to the Eden subject previously explored in the Sunset Studies track 'There Is No Such Place'. - Glenn Richards
ENGINEERING THE SOUL (CD & DVD) (Signed Copy)
Order online and get your copy signed by the band - Deluxe CD & DVD version. In reference to the title of the upcoming album, lead vocalist of Something with Numbers Jake Grigg said, "Music is what powers the soul. We make the music. We are engineering the soul".
Everyone's got their demons and such, keeping them down in their pit can be too much over a flurry of hits in the gut. Here's hopin'. Singin' "Back it on up and start again". I get the sense I may be singin' that for a long while.
'Only By The Night' is a bold and expansive sonic statement that looks set to solidify Kings of Leon's position as one of the most important international acts of 2008 and beyond.
