ISLAND TIME: Australasian multi-instru-mentalist Wes Smith (who brought you – Insurgents, The Zingers, Chick Vekters) returns with one of his most thrilling releases yet. Aptly titled, SNIFTER OF SPACE is a tasty dash of alien sounds that resonate like a fine piece of crystal glassware. It's highbrow punk for lowbrow times.

Following 2023's 'Synthetic Soup', Rhizome supercharges his sound to the point of no U-turn. The title track bursts into chaotic ether as synths flubber around earwormin' guitars, while vibrato infused chants bind it all together. Inspired by the real-life liqueur based nebula – Sagittarius B2.

Ever at a loss to distinguish all those British titles for Australian suburbs and streets, when everything's rehashed country-wide? Maybe you've been told your dream is to own your very own above ground catacomb on a grid of CARBON COPY boxes – situated right at the heart of a newly deforested wasteland? Welcome to copy and paste country! Can you guess where you are?

Luckily, AGENT CROSSHAIR sneaks into the equation to handle our new red coat problem, the humble realtor! A suitably crazed composition puts them under the hammer. Going once, going twice, I'm sold on the idea. 60s Japanese Eleki/Surf meets early LA art punk, at last!

From time to time, we're all a little ROUGH IN THE DIAMOND. What does earth look like to outsiders? What time does one observe from afar? Would any(thing) really care? We're living in a world of tomorrow and nothing works. Who cares when we've got three and a half minutes of synthy-pop delight up our sleeves!

Satire will soon be dead – the detoxification of humanity is underway. But will we then be good folk, or off yolk? Do you WALK THE EGGSHELL? Why not have some fun in the sun instead? Step right into a techno-babylon where chatting guitars, glitching mainframes and hollering cowboys meet for the first and last time.
