SMITHIES CHANNEL ANGER FOR GOOD
IT'S been a difficult 12 months for Melbourne's Smith Street Band after frontman Wil Wagner was accused of emotional abuse by ex-girlfriends. However, Wagner and his band have channelled that negativity into their fifth album Don't Waste Your Anger, out on Friday.
The album features the latest single I Still Dream About You and Big Smoke.

DANDY MARATHON
IF you have four hours to spare in isolation, psych-rock legends The Dandy Warhols have released a sprawling new opus, Tafelmuzik Means More When You're Alone. The four-hour experimental album pays homage to the light-hearted baroque.
