Hamish Kilgour Sends An Email: The Poppies Want To Grow A Little Taller

A few years back I wrote to Hamish Kilgour of The Clean – and asked him some questions about one of my favourite songs, Anything Could Happen. It was for a book I was writing, On Song. Hamish wrote back to me with a response that seemed worthy of quoting in full. Only one problem: […]

Tiny Ruins & Hamish Kilgour: Hurtling Through (ep)

Tiny Ruins & Hamish Kilgour Hurtling Through (ep) Flying Nun Records This is a smart move – for both.

The Best Guitarist in The World: # 4 – David Kilgour

It was only recently, a couple of years ago, that I stumbled onto the best way to describe David Kilgour: his approach, his playing, his position. I considered him a nonchalant phenomenon. In fact I’d borrowed the term – overheard it on a Paul Kelly song many years earlier. But it seemed to sum up […]

Gig Review: The Clean (Feb 10, Wgtn)

The Clean Puppies Monday, February 10 You hear The Clean is playing – and it’s just down the road from you (also it’s just $30) and you go. That’s what you do. Because this band means the world to you. And, more than that, far more than that, you kinda figure this band means the […]

The Clean: Vehicle (Reissue)

The Clean Vehicle (Reissue) Flying Nun/Captured Tracks There aren’t many bands that release their debut full-lengther only after their first reunion tour, but Vehicle (here reissued by Flying Nun with Captured Tracks) had exactly that auspicious/inauspicious (depending on how you look at it) release into this world. Robert Scott was already on into The Bats, […]
