Sora Shima



Facebook


Bandcamp


Sora Shima are a Hamilton based Post Rock band, similar in style to Mogwai and Godspeed You! Black Emperor etc. Check out their band camp where you can get a whole bunch of their releases for no minimum cost (you don't have to pay if you're cheap). Check em out. I like them. They opened for Jakob at the Kings Arms in Auckland a few weeks ago.

Strangers - Discography

Download Guest Stabs Host Demo


Strangers from Wellington are one of my favourite bands to come out of New Zealand. Previously named Guest Stabs Host they changed their name and evolved their sound into what was known as Strangers. After breaking up in 2010 they have recently put up their demo, full length and two EP's for free download. If you never go around to listening to them before I think now is the time to see what you've been missing out on.

Auckland band God Bows To Math have just released their new EP for free download on their bandcamp page here. There you can also download some of their older releases including a covers/B-sides release. God Bows To Math are a noise rock/math rock band and state their influences as Mclusky, Minutemen, Nirvana, Slint, Arab On Radar, Shellac, Lungfish, The Gits, Cows, Chavez, and Unwound, all of which are reflected quite well in God Bows To Math's sound.
