Last Dinosaurs
Loud guitars, off-kilter grooves and on-stage havoc collide at the Roundhouse.
Overview
The words "indie pop" have in many circles become synonymous with hipster pretentiousness. Last Dinosaurs ain't that kind of indie pop.
Coupled with their taste for button-up shirts and primary coloured jeans, the Brisbane quartet have taken the template supplied by such indie darlings as Vampire Weekend and Bombay Bicycle Club, cranked up the guitar histrionics and added some shout-along choruses plus a bunch of irresistibly funky, off-kilter grooves to give us a sound that has had critics salivating and brought them sold-out concerts across Australia and Europe.
Then of course there is the Brisbane quartet's insatiable taste for causing havoc on stage. The boys' growing reputation for putting on unforgettable, dance-till-your-feet-hurt shows has set them apart from the glut of indie pop outfits that seem to clog every other bar and venue in Sydney.
In honour of their debut album In A Million Years celebrating its first birthday this month - an album that The Guardian described as a "possible contender" for best Australian album to reach British shores in the last twenty years - Last Dinosaurs are bringing their guitar-powered pop to UNSW's Roundhouse. Book online before tickets become extinct.
