Scratchy five-piece indie-rockers
Nova Scotia have been preaching their glorious live shows and fine music for
six years around Brisbane. In that time, they have gained a huge local following
and opening slots for the likes of Built to Spill and the Vivian Girls. The
three-guitar attack, clear melodies and dynamic rhythm makes me ashamed I
haven’t mentioned these guys earlier. After
two EP’s, early 2011 saw Nova Scotia release their self-titled debut album.
Teeming with ambiguous riffs and keen pop sensibility, Nova Scotia
have created an album that has brought the best of their earlier EP’s into one fiercely
beautiful collection of sound. Simple drums and supportive bass give much
needed room for their thick lattice of fuzzed guitars. The efforts of Dan, Nathan, Scott, Ash, Cam and the
production and mixing from Andrew White have resulted in an album that comes
across with ferocity from their tasteful layering and crunchy texture.
