rickrexa I have loved this band originally hailing from Tassie for a few years now. Jangling guitars, infectious beats, sing-a-long lyrics and beautiful harmonies make this album an absolute pleasure. Favorite track: You're Not Always On My Mind.

H.L. Each year the same story: My wife (handmade pop music) and I (black metal maniac) go on holiday. We need some "soft" but honest music for long car drives. It is a tough week in advance to dive deeply into musical scrap to find some pearls like QUIVERS! Their good vibrations rock pop fits perfectly to our summer holiday playlist. It is catchy, easy going and relaxed without rough edges. Check "Gutters of Love" Favorite track: Gutters of Love.

Dietmar Leibecke This album has been growing on me big time. Sweet harmonies, uplifting energy, fantastic melodies. It's a cracker. Favorite track: Gutters of Love.

thequietcanon Fall into Gutters of Love, and you will never want to crawl out of Quivers' soundscape. The guitars have that Flying Nun-esque feel, both sparkly and acquatic. Their energy and band feel is not unlike that of Straightjacket Fits, although the songwriting is more inline with the hopefulness of Andrew Brough. The lyrics tug at the heart, with the singalong harmonies at the end that make you stand atop a coastal cliff and shout to the heavens. The melodic choices are spot on. A true triumph! Favorite track: Gutters of Love.

Philshine They make quintessentially Australian indie pop. This album feels like their most "international" sounding release yet. Favorite track: Hold You Back.

Niek || Add To Wantlist Golden Doubt is a gorgeous record that is given me the feels. This is beautiful indie pop, with great harmonies and group vocals. Quivers will break your heart with their songs but also mend it, putting the pieces back together one at a time. Favorite track: When It Breaks.

about

From Ba Da Bing (US), Bobo Integral (Europe) & Spunk Records (Australia).

Quivers’ life-damaged but hopeful jangle pop has returned.

Golden Doubt is carried by shimmering guitars and the harmonizing vocals of members Holly Thomas and Bella Quinlan. Elevated by the production of Matthew Redlich (Holy Holy, Husky, Ainslie Wills), the record explores what comes after grief, and how we throw ourselves back into love. As Nicholson explains, the album tries to bottle “the rush of feelings and fears when you give in to falling for someone. It’s also an album in love with other albums, and the other bands around us.”

Before each take at Woodstock and The Aviary studios in Melbourne, Australia, the band would imagine a scene together (a waterhole for “Laughing Waters”, an overgrown carpark for “Videostores”) and then dive in to capture live group takes. Quivers need to get words on the page and sounds out to keep moving on. Both Sam and Holly lost their brothers, and there’s a shared vulnerability in the band that runs deep. Golden Doubt is also a love letter to playing music as a band and processing it all together rather than just carrying things by yourself.

Quivers stretched out in making Golden Doubt once they nailed foundational band recordings, adding walls of violins (“Hold You Back”), a nine-person choir to “Chinese Medicine”, and a broken Farfisa organ anywhere it would fit. On the striking “Nostalgia Will Kill You,” Michael Panton's guitar channels Santo & Johnny; with a fresh take on 50s group vocals, Sam, Bella, and Holly sing in wrenching stop-and-starts, “you can’t go back everywhere you want to go / nostalgia will kill you.”

Still Life
by Massage

supported by 107 fans who also own “Golden Doubt”

Remember how Bill Murray woke up to I Got You Babe every day in Groundhog Day? If that song would have been Made Of Moods, he at the very least experienced three and a half perfect minutes each day. It’s one of those songs that I enjoy each and every second of, with it’s jangly guitars and hushed vocals that almost have a Beach Boys vibe, especially in the verse. Truly, it’s a song for the ages. But the best news about Still Life is that it offers eleven additional underground pop gems. Niek || Add To Wantlist

Songs From Another Life
by The Boys With The Perpetual Nervousness

supported by 106 fans who also own “Golden Doubt”

The indie pop on Songs From Another Life sounds confident yet delicate, and the strummy and jangly guitars makes me long for spring. Some songs sound like straight up Teenage Fanclub worship, but in a good way. Fans of The Byrds and Big Star will probably dig this as well. Niek || Add To Wantlist
