***Turning is the debut LP by ANGIE, a Sydney-based musician whose guises include CIRCLE PIT, SOUTHERN COMFORT, RUINED FORTUNE, and STRAIGHT ARROWS. The album was produced and recorded by OWEN PENGLIS (Straight Arrows) at his home studio in Sydney from February to April 2013. Drums and percussion are by Owen and bass, rhythm guitar, lead guitar, organ and vocals by Angie. Production assistance by LINCOLN BROWN (Housewives) and additional locals by NATHAN JOHN ROCHE. The songs themselves have been burgeoning, shining, turning, for a long time... devised through half melodies returning in wake and sleep, wine and coffee, confidence and paranoia... themes spurred from a myriad of notebooks recounting travels in North America, Croatia, Cambodia, Turkey, and everyday life in Australia. The melodies have been floating around for years in loose form, only now to be assigned their rightful place.

BACK IN STOCK !!! - * Note: Copies have spine tears * Second album for the Melbourne four-piece comprising members of DEAF WISH, TOTAL CONTROL, UV RACE, THE FOCUS, and ‘about a billion other awesome bands’. Recorded on eight-track reel-to-reel tape in one take. ‘On one of the songs you can hear the reel run off,’ band member JENSEN TJHUNG, also of Deaf Wish, told M+N in a recent interview. ‘Then we just left it on the machine for like six months. [Laughs] So we actually recorded it this time last year. These things sometimes take a while.’ Hard Rubbish sees them drop the volume and press play on the downer country vibes, think Opal or Greg Ashley.
