The Shane Oliver Experience

Matt & Nick of Buckled

Sun, 23 Oct 2022 21:21:12 GMT

CW = Addiction/ Depression / Suicide

The latest episode involves the legends Matt and Nick from Buckled who have just dropped a ridiculously good album and are about to tour with No Fun at All (Shoutout to Emetic Art for the great work on the cover art). We talked about what went in to the process of getting the album together, the state of the music scene currently and some general chit chat about life. The biggest talking point from this episode is about Addiction (based off their single Addict) and how much of a stranglehold it can have on your life, how it affects you day to day and in extreme cases; people you know and love can be taken away from addiction. (I talk about my own experience, not for recognition but for normality) In a world full of ridiculous struggle right now, it's so imperative to look out for one another and build strong and healthy communities for all of us to not only overcome these demons, but to be done with compassion and understanding.

End It All (Skype)

Tue, 27 Sep 2022 10:20:00 GMT

The second venture over to WA involves hardcore legends End it All. With a new release coming out really soon we sat down for a chat through zoom and got to know the guys, their backstory and what's next on the agenda now that shows are really starting to hit their stride. You also get a sneak peak of a new track at the end of this episode so listen through, or don't and just listen to the song, either way hype up End it All and get them over to the East Coast. Be sure to check their tunes out and buy threads through the legend at Loudmouth Records also.

Liam and Seras of Hell's Horizon

Fri, 08 Jul 2022 09:11:07 GMT

Joining me on this installment is Liam and Seras of Hell's Horizon. As per usual we get on to tangents but we ultimately talk back on the origins of the band, how long the process has been to play shows, transitioning in uncertain times, what's next for the band and much more. Recording is happening in the near future and expect a few more shows to round out the year.

Brendan 'Pip' of Blackblood Audio

Wed, 08 Jun 2022 09:31:08 GMT

A week after their show with Hadal Maw at The Outpost Bar, Pip and I managed a catch up at his recording studio to talk about everything that went down. As well as playing in two bands on the night, organising shows with interstaters is back on the cards and recordings booked months in advance for his studio, it's inspiring to see the love for it all still shine through and most importantly, seeing it all come together on the night. There's new Resin Tomb and Snorlax material happening, more Descent shows lining up and if you have any projects needing some magic, Brendan is your dude for it.

Adam and Tegan of TeamGlasses Records

Thu, 12 May 2022 07:07:46 GMT

The last time these two were on, Adam was promoting Vestige's 2nd release? and Tegan was on promoting At The Drive Pin and From the Floor Up festival, which coincidentally over a year later is finally going ahead (cheers pandemic!) We get to plugging the upcoming Diploid weekender shows, the ridiculous festival weekender FTFU starting at The Junk Bar, arriving at The Triffid and finishing off at Vinnies Dive with bands like Rage, Masochist, Blind Girls, Outright, Salt Money, Apparitions, Shackles and loads more. New cassette releases are on the way (so keen for Lies In Ashes) and vinyl is coming back into the Teamglasses stable. This was a fun chat and a great catch up with two beautiful human beings who love music enough to put these incredible shows on for everyone to enjoy.

Andy Kelly of Loudmouth Records

Mon, 28 Mar 2022 12:12:58 GMT

This was purely a zoom call for logistical reasons as Andy is based in WA, he's the current honcho of loudmouth and crosscheck. We talk about upbringing, what got the label going, how it's been going balls deep in a short amount of time and a bunch more random stuff. He's got loads of artists signed already and heaps more planned for the year, including a fundraiser in the near future so make sure to check out his website and all of his platforms to keep up to date with what's next from someone who is absolutely in it for all the right reasons.

Ben Trotter of YDR (Your Daughters Records)

Sat, 12 Mar 2022 19:59:29 GMT

We get off track fairly often on this episode, we're two dudes who were raised in the sporting culture, what else did you think was gonna happen. When we were focused though we talked about the comeback of the record label which back in the day had up to twenty bands going at once, the eventual need for a break and finding the spark to come back. This weekend starts that venture again with Driven Fear playing at King Lears Throne and Vinnies Dive Bar with interstate supports Knife Hands and Idle Threat. Lots of love for Ben and look forward to seeing more from him this year. He also used to play in a band called Vomit Bullets (super catchy dirty punk sounding) which is worth checking out in bandcamp, apparently they still have vinyls..

Ben Hudson of Distorted Youth

Tue, 01 Feb 2022 04:05:21 GMT

Big thanks for Ben coming on. He's a photographer based in brissy who predominantly shoots black and white, having a keen love for the same style I wanted to learn more. We talked about the differences between digital and film(he shoots on film, I shoot on digital, we both wanna get better at the other, it was really cool) we talked about some of the shows we've been too and taken shots at and basically where the love of photography started for him. I highly recommend his snaps, be sure to keep and eye on his work and send him a message if you like what you see.

Toby of Entrapment (Ex Bitter Lungs)

Thu, 16 Dec 2021 19:15:22 GMT

Sorry in advance, my audio is just fine but Toby is a bit quiet (Nice one pleb) we sat down at Rock City Studios for an impromptu chat about music and a lot of nothing to be honest. That's not entirely true, we talk about new music on the way for the band, how it came about, the next lot of shows and you get a sneaky listen to a new song if you listen all the way through; or just skip to the end I don't care, just support Entrapment and bring Southport back to its glory days. We also talked about throwing axes and funny show moments too. Entrapment play the Cooly Hotel this Saturday with Clowns and Coffin.. Winner's Win

Mikey of Violent Soho

Mon, 22 Nov 2021 07:11:48 GMT

Mikey was kind enough to invite me over to his place for a chat so we'll consider this a live recording. It was a real pleasure talking to someone with such knowledge of the industry and not even realising how long Soho has actually been around. I also had a short Tarot reading which was incredibly specific and freaked me the fuck out, but I absolutely love that kinda stuff too so thank you Mikey! Catch Violent Soho playing next month up and down the coast before some super cool stuff happens in the new year

Bridie & Storm of Edentulous

Mon, 08 Nov 2021 05:00:50 GMT

If spooky, obscure and limit pushing artwork and photography is what you like, the Edentulous exhibit is what you're after. Named after a lack of teeth, you get an idea into the brainstorming and concepts Bridie has in being the mastermind behind the project. Storm as well as playing in The Royal Artillery and recently featured on Chassm's latest release has come on board and help build the exhibition into a continuing performance for artists to have a platform to perform. The next exhibit happens this weekend at the Station located in the Valley (near common house) with new show pieces and three noise/rock bands performing as well. You can follow them on Instagram for the latest showcases and next exhibits from there.

Sarah Meharg of Revelation Groove

Tue, 26 Oct 2021 07:58:40 GMT

Between her lack of sleep and my 2nd dose of the spicy protector, We pushed through and had a great chat despite our struggles. We talked about Sarah's upbringing into the musical world, where it all started and what it's like what playing in a Latin / Jazz / Funk infused crossover as well as a multitude of other bands in her lifetime to date. She's currently singing in Revelation Groove with dates to come and has her own solo music on CD and through bandcamp you can check out. Couldn't be a more genuine human being and I can't wait to go check out her music live.

Jem of DEAD (Skype)

Fri, 24 Sep 2021 02:25:44 GMT

Locked down has been an enduring presence on the Melbourne right now which os why the guys in DEAD haven't been able to get on the road. Jem and I got to talking about the mental effects being put on those experiencing times of hardship while also trying to make a living in a pandemic. Trying to book and cancel ans reschedule then postpone (you get the idea) You can go check out their music on bandcamp (and most streaming services) and follow them through insta and keep track of when they come to play because it'll definitely be worth checking out their tunes are fantastic.

Dean of Salt Money / Lumens House

Sun, 05 Sep 2021 19:43:04 GMT

We tried to get the list of releases out from Lumens Records but even now I don't think we've got round to all of it. We talk about his old bands and releasing music under anonymity, big mental health chats and what's coming next for Salt Money and the record label. I'm absolutely sure he's involved in more so you should definitely check out this episode.

Borgy of Bad Habit Records

Sat, 28 Aug 2021 19:31:41 GMT

The latest episode features local caveman and all round family man Borgy from Silicosis and the owner of Bad Habit Records. We talk a lot of nonsense, it was ultimately a catch up for both of us since we know each other outside of the poddy. You should definitely support his record store if you're ever looking to buy or even put out merch/music through. I haven't had a chance to catch his band yet but I've heard they're filthy as well. This episode also has an unreleased Black Deity song which will be coming out in the near future at the end.

Tom Tanuki (Skype)

Thu, 01 Jul 2021 19:00:00 GMT

CW = Swearing and a bad microphone my end)

In a fresh start to a new season of TSOE Tom Tanuki (Yelling at Racist Dogs, Independent Australia) and myself sit down for what will be regular chats discussing current topics plaguing the world and in this episode as an example taking a look at the 'Freedom Marches' and how these kind of toxic movements are formed and the kind of people they attract into their fold. We also touch base on experiencing people close to us that fall into these rabbit holes and start to spread misinformation as well as 'influencers' and grifters jumping on the bandwagon like Avi Yemini and Egghead as an example ( Will Connolly ) and how we can work as a community to weed through the garbage and follow the right advice.

Cat of Nine Lives Media

Thu, 24 Jun 2021 19:00:00 GMT

If you haven't guessed this episode is definitely a guilty pleasure I've wanted to talk about for a while because I think everyone at some point thinks they can take photos for a living, get that perfect shot and have every opportunity thrown at you(myself included), but there is genuinely a lot more that goes into it all behind the scenes. Cat is an absolute gem with such a great eye for a candid snap and a bubbly personality it's no surprise to hear of her great reputation. We touched on the passion developing into a job as well as where it all started and what's next in store for the future.

Bragg and Polly of Mitch, Please / Freakshow Nightmare / Kids With Class Kicking Arse

Mon, 31 May 2021 19:00:00 GMT

We got lost in a lot of tangents, but it was super fun and a great time was had by all. We got Bragg and Polly from Mitch, Please, Freakshow Nightmare and frequent 4ZZZ presenters on to talk about what's going on with their current bands and future shows/projects as well as a brief background on what got them both into music and dealing with the new normal. You can catch these two beautiful humans playing this Friday at Tomcat with Wolfpack, Goon On The Rocks, and The Square Tugs and it'll no doubt be a fantastic show.

Elijah of Bled Out, Chassm, Daedric Armour, Watch you Die and The Royal Artillery

Thu, 20 May 2021 19:00:00 GMT

Another musician who can't seem to get enough of playing in multiple bands and me having to catch my breath every time I introduce him, Elijah and I had a fantastic chat about his upbringing into music, coping during strange times and the joy brought on by being on the stage. You can catch Elijah playing next weekend at The Station in Fortitude Valley then a support slot the following week for Justice for the Damned at The Brightside.

Tegan of At the Drive Pin / Swimdown Stitches / Teamglasses Records

Mon, 10 May 2021 19:00:00 GMT

Pins and badges were never really my thing until I started getting them when I buy cassettes from Teamglasses Records and found out Tegan was the legend behind it. We talk about recently signing her first band to the label (Regionals), putting on a music festival in the near future (Sneaky line-up announcement), and being able to use your passions as a drive to continue making art. Tegan's doing incredible considering her line of work outside of music has been pretty chaotic, it's a testament to sticking to what you love doing.

Liam Anthony of Idle Ruin / Bone Marrow

Wed, 05 May 2021 19:00:00 GMT

A spontaneous recording due to fire alarms and pure chaos, we catch up with Liam for a second time out in the courtyard of his apartment building and a hell of a lot has changed since last we spoke. Travel plans ditched and bands flamed out but that didn't deter him to keep playing and find his feet again. He'll be bunkering down to record new tunes with both of his new bands and there will be more shows on the way no doubt about it.

Liam Matsen of Matsen Art / Siberian Hell Sounds

Thu, 22 Apr 2021 19:00:00 GMT

Before Liam decided to head off overseas (pre-pandemic obviously) he was the vocalist for Siberian Hell Sounds and has now started Matsen Arts and is taking on commission pieces. We reminisce about our early years of going to live shows and more than likely crossing paths without evening knowing it, trusting your gut when it comes to your art and at the current time of release, the search continues for Trent Riley and to bring him home. Team Glasses, Black Blood Audio, and Parliament Skate Shop as well as a stellar lineup of bands have gotten together to put on a benefit show with all the proceeds going to Trent's family.

Josh Jansen of Flangipanis / The Graceful Dead / The Way We Were

Mon, 19 Apr 2021 19:00:00 GMT

Josh is such a good dude. His skills behind the kit are matched by the quality of bands he plays in. We talk about how joining the flange lot came along, the limitations the rona virus put on the music scene and as a head's up we do get heavy in a couple parts about mental health and the struggles, effects and life changing moments it can have in our lives. As long as restrictions continue to lift you can enjoy some sweet beats by Josh and definitely get behind an absolute gem.

Brendan 'Pip' of Blackblood Audio, Descent, Resin Tomb, Snorlax, Feculent etc etc

Sun, 04 Apr 2021 19:00:00 GMT

In the last of three live episode recordings I travelled to Brendan's recording abode ( more impressed by the aviary not gonna lie ) and get to know his origins into music, taking on numerous projects and saying fuck you to burning out, what lies ahead for the rest of the year and getting a sneaky listen to some new tunes coming out. Catch Brendan playing this weekend in Resin Tomb at The Zoo with a stacked line up and for all your musical endeavours be sure to reach out to the man, he's a wizard behind the recording desk.

Buddha of Cursed Earth / Ex-Flangipanis

Sun, 21 Mar 2021 10:49:50 GMT

Cheers to Borgy of Bad Habit Records for introducing me to the legend of Buddha. We revisit the local watering hole that is YardDoggs for a sit-down and talks about the reformation of Cursed Earth after 8+ years away, not having played Brisbane in over 10, the trials and tribulations of mental health, and more. He's a genuine teddy bear playing obscene music and I love it. Catch Buddha playing Saturday 20th March at the Zoo with a bunch of amazing bands headed by Punkfest.

Thu, 04 Mar 2021 19:00:00 GMT

In the first of three live episodes, two of which were recorded at the wonderful YardDoggs establishment, we caught up with Cam from the Prog/Experimental metal band Therein. We sank a few cold ones and chatted on the origins of the band, the joys of being a music teacher and the upcoming show with Weightless in Orbit and Valtozash on the 19th of March at The Zoo. There's a couple of sneaky guests on this episode as well. (recording at the pub what do you expect) Huge love for Cam he's a fantastic bloke and I can't wait to check out a show.

Teigan of Being Jane Lane

Sat, 06 Feb 2021 19:00:00 GMT

Mistakes were made, the first ten minutes we started chatting we immediately went off in a tangent and I forgot to hit record as well. Once we got going though it was such a wonderful chat about growing up around the music, the current plans/shows for Being Jane Lane and also how she came about joining them, back into tangents again of course and finished up with their brand new song 'Trouble'. They play pretty regularly at the moment so I highly recommend checking them out and stoked to hear new music in the coming months.

Evil Eddie of Butterfingers/Spitfireliar and Mike Mike of East Coast Aliens/Sloj/Slurpee Jerks

Wed, 27 Jan 2021 09:00:00 GMT

We were thinking about an hour and a half would be sweet, ended up going an extra hour of shit-talking with a National Tour coming in March, the fingers are well and truly crossed in order for it to go ahead this year as Covid stopped everyone in their tracks. We talk about the craziness of last year and adapting to the changes, Mike's new project ECA supporting Butterfingers on his first tour as well as his other bands and what's in store, the process behind making the beats, and much more. You'll also have a sneak peek at one of Mike Mike's new songs before the actual release date best of luck for the new year fellas!

Emma L of Emetic Art

Tue, 19 Jan 2021 10:11:37 GMT

After spending a decent amount of time down in Melbourne and making it up to Brissy before the hard lockdowns and tomfoolery, Emma's starting the new year strong with her artistic vision and has been working hard getting her merch and commissions up to scratch. We get to know more about the process behind the art which is mindblowing, to say the least, where the influences are drawn from, and what else we can look forward to for the rest of 2021 and beyond. It was a fantastic chat with an incredible human being and as always I can't wait to see what's in store for her vision and brand for the future.

Nath Core of Consuming Impulse (Ex Oratory)

Sun, 10 Jan 2021 19:00:00 GMT

This was the second attempt at recording, we'd started a 2 part series and never got around to the last part because Covid decided to come along. We scrapped it and tried again with much better success this time round. Having travelled a lot of the world and in particular the states, Nath has met a vast array of musicians and has even worked for them. His own podcast Consuming Impulse has some fantastic international artists to listen too and as well as Nath's story growing up on the Southside during some pretty hostile times. It was an absolute pleasure to chat and I hope he continues to release more content in the future.

Jake Folmer of Serenity in Brutality

Tue, 15 Dec 2020 09:35:55 GMT

It's been a wild ride since the last time we spoke, we decided to have an easy one and caught up at the local pub for a chat. After putting on a successful show in October Jake's organising a second show which is going to be even bigger than the last. As well as running his business he's the main boss dog on the Metal Music Discovery Australia page which after a year has over 3,500 members and growing at a steady rate. We talk all of this plus the current landscape of music and the local scene following Covid's run this year and as we always have we talk about our mental health and check-in. Expect big things in 2021 for Jake and Serenity.

Tom and I met a while back and told me he recently started working with a bloke who was working on a local music app and I just had to find out more about it and why we haven't jumped on this sooner. It honestly never occurred to me to use an app for musicians and venues to promote on but luckily someone was. Both Tom and Hugh have a great passion for live music and and everything inbetween. I had such a great and informative chat with the guys and genuinely can't wait to see GigUp launch.

Episode three brings in the beautiful Ila, who has just started playing live acoustic shows and her other half Ethan the guitarist from Goon on the Rocks. This episode discussed the mental challenges in dealing with isolation during the lockdowns, how much music has an impact on your state of mind, how supportive the local scene has been and so much more. As well as learning more about Ila and Ethan's plans for the rest of this already ridiculous year and looking into 2021, at the end of this episode we're treated to a live song performed by none other than Ila Dorothy.

Kicking off the new season of the experience is a vocal hard man but really one of the nicest guys in the world Githain from the Brisbane hardcore band Deathbed. We talk about musical upbringings, what the hardcore/metal scene was like back 10-15 years ago to what it is now, what's next in store for Deathbed during crazy covid times, and much more. it's looking like good things are heading our way from the death camp including a side project and shows on the horizon as well so be sure to follow their pages, give them a listen, and let loose some of those pent-up emotions.

Jack Henry of SLUGG / Kaviti / Scumbag / Skirmisher

Thu, 22 Oct 2020 19:00:00 GMT

Jack has been involved in music for a damn long time, it shows with the impressive list of bands he's played for (no doubt I've forgotten a few) This is the kind of normalcy I've grown used to hearing though as being an amazing drummer in Brisbane especially is always in demand. He's also an active supporter at the protests for the release of the refugees from the Kangaroo Point Hotel where over 100 detainees are being held (some up too as long as 8 years) Originally his new Doom band SLUGG planned on debuting their live set at one of the protests but was unfortunately canceled but just recently got the chance to play at Blute's Bar and I totally forgot how bloody loud sludgey doom can be. Expect new tunes and more shows in the future and I highly recommend giving them a watch next time you get the chance to boogie in town.

We talk about his experience in hip hop from a younger time to the current times involving his activism roles and how it can affect you mentally and emotionally and lots more.

The bright and colourful man behind the noise came in and smashed out 3 hours of tangents out the earholes. We covered everything from world problems, the recent mini documentary Loki was apart of about The Underdog (now Netherworld) where the inspiration comes from, attempting the guiness record for the most playable pedals and literally so much more. Now restrictions are beginning to ease make sure to hassle the guys in Wise Man Say to play a show in a town near you and witness some chaos

Tom Lee Christen and Chloe Garrett (Dreamworm and Harshmellow)

Thu, 11 Jun 2020 19:05:00 GMT

It felt strange recording in my own bedroom, not in a bad way since distance rather than the virus made that happen, probably more so the fact it was my second attempt at a skype recording and normally I record in the studio. Dreamworm has a fascinating story and the lore behind the band is pretty mindblowing, Harshmellow is a comedic musical combo started by a shared love for art and each other. We talk about coping in crazy times, storytelling in music and so much more. I had such a good time getting to know these two and will always look forward to seeing what they both produce and to see them perform when restrictions start to ease over the country. Be sure to check them out on facebook, instagram, patreon and most other streaming services.

Kenny of King Lears Throne

Sun, 10 May 2020 19:03:00 GMT

Well hot damn it's good to be back. First episode since the craziness of COVID19 had the owner of King Lears Throne aka King of the shit talk Kenny onboard for a chat and it stayed on track relatively early but as you guessed it we talked a lot of shit. Being someone directly affected by the lockdown I wanted to check in and see how the industry is holding up as well as having a chat with such a lovely human being after the lockdown. We talk favourite shows played at his pub, getting the foot in the door and how the other venues are supporting one another. Once this all blows over (safely of course) King lears will be up at running and to quote the man himself "it should be at leassttt 30% better"

Songs played include:
Gridflex - Eat the Rich
Beans on Toast - M.D.M Amazing
Being Jane Lane - Savage Sunday

All have played in the tiny confines of King Lears

Late1

Hip hop has never been the genre I go too first but I've never held a grudge, it's thought provoking, catchy and lyrically captivating. With the help of local brisbane legend Late1, we sat down for a few beers to talk about Brisbane's hip hop scene, what seperates his style from the rest, the comradery between other artists and collaborations and plenty more. You can reach out to Late1 through the usual platforms like facebook and Instagram as well as soundcloud and spotify for his music which is fantastic by the way. Couldn't have asked for a better guest to help expand my knowledge of the genre and look forward to see what he gets up too next.

Cowboys and Injuries (Live Episode)

I hadn't been to a Thursday night show in a while, of course I picked a rainy night to do so. Absolutely worth it though to catch up with the guys in Cowboys and Injuries, Andy and Nick are such good dudes and I'm a little bummed I couldn't get them in the studio but this is exactly why the live format has come into play. The goldy punks have just dropped a 2 track release on spotify and have more shows and songs coming at you in the near future. The audio does get a little dicey here and there and towards the end the next band starts playing but hey, that's being live for you (also recording off a phone lel) Genuinely can't wait to see what they get up too next so go and give them a follow on all the social media platforms

Garlic Nun (Live Episode)

Sat, 08 Feb 2020 11:16:34 GMT

Sometimes guests can't make it in to the studio because of schedules, life, you name it; that's totally okay in this instance I had the chance to meet up with the Garlic Nun boys for a few beers down the road from The Bearded Lady in West End before their show and full disclaimer, the sound won't be the greatest, there's background noise from the markets next door and a lot of back and forth chat it's hard to work out at times, but this is the feel I'm going for and especially more so for this episode. Such a crazy bunch of dudes but absolutely the best kind and their show that night with Blussh The Unknowns and Goon on the Rocks was just mental. If you missed out on seeing them I wouldn't be too bummed I'm sure they'll be back soon and with new tunes.

After a brief stint on the sidelines taking some me time I got really psyched to get the podcast up and running again and I couldn’t be happier with the first guests back in Claire and Pooley. Recovering from a monstrous leg injury and playing shows up and down the east coast and picking up Pooley along the way hasn’t been enough for Claire now with Terra mater’s new release and scoring support spots for international bands anddd just coming off a short run touring with Meth Leppard in Bone Marrow. Time to sink a few coldies and find out what else these crazy cats are up too.
