One step forward – Boyracer I know this was originally an Even As We Speak song, but, to completely preclude the best chance Even As We Speak had of appearing here (or another Australian band appearing here), it’s the Boyracer version in my head.

West Riding House

West Riding House – Boyracer I want to write songs like Boyracer did. I want to find songs in what Boyracer found, making songs from what Boyracer made, let songs be as Boyracer let them, knowing these are songs, and perfect songs at that.

Black fantastic splitting – Boyracer I could have gone and seen Boyracer live. This isn’t a Fugazi, Groovie Ghoulies, Bikini Kill, Salteens or Knapsack situation where something came up and prevented me from going, be it a friend coming over, being on holiday, or just general, everyday crippling shyness. No this was just me being [...]
