Left. Poison Vine

Left. is a brand new project from Sydney guitarist Jono Graham and vocalist Sarah Corry. Graham plays with indie pop band Made in Japan (who we've featured a number of times), while Corry has been featured on hip-hop records from Sydney groups Spit Syndicate and Horrowshow. With Adit Gauchan from Horrorshow producing the three recently released tracks, it's a definite mix of styles -- but the result is excellent.

I was sent a couple of the tracks over a month ago when they were still a work in progress, and I was impressed with them then. Now, after the final tweaking has been completed, they're even better. Without a nominated single yet, it was hard to choose between the three, but I decided on highlighting "Poison Vine." Upbeat but still dreamy, the fusion of glittering guitar layers and heavy-hitting percussion works a treat, paving the way for Corry's soothing vocals to come to the fore.

If you like this one, then there are another two tracks on Left.'s SoundCloud -= the first samples of this intriguing act's upcoming debut album (due for release later this year).
