rowland's bio on the 2006 birthday party website

i went to the pop crimes rowland tribute show recently and some guy behind looked at me and told his mate "he looks like he knows shivers" 🫤

transcript ↓

Had attended Swinburne Free School from which many key figures in the late 70’s Melbourne scene emerged.

Rowlands legendary band The Young Charlatans played only 13 shows before dissolving through internal competitiveness (Ollie Olsen being the other singer and writer).

He joined The Boys Next Door shortly afterwards, bringing with him a swag of great songs including “Shivers”, which 20 years on has come to be considered a classic.

With his addition the band took an enormous leap forward musically and Rowland began developing a guitar style as unique as the band would later become.

His influence on guitarists around the world has probably been as significant as The Birthday Party’s has been in general.

But Rowland was also a singer and frustrations with not getting to sing very often and Nick wanting to sing only his own lyrics became contributing factors in the internal breakdown of the group.

He has subsequently worked on many projects with Lydia Lunch and exercised his vocal chords extensively with These Immortal Souls.

His brilliant first “solo” album “Teenage Snuff Film” came out in 1999

King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard - Supreme Ascendancy (live in Sydney '2...

youtube

This is an absolute banger. Love the time signature and Ambrose's voice.

Lyrics are more pertinent than ever too.

"How can you get away with a murder?

Scot-Free when you're found guilty in the first degree

It's pretty simple when you're so powerful

It's who you know

Untouchable, lying through your teeth

Break the doctrine, they're all laughing

Double-parking tax-free control monopoly

So complacent

It's adjacent to the demons you summon from your faculty

Supreme ascendancy, tomfoolery

You're not above the law, no matter your beliefs

Supreme ascendancy, tomfoolery

You're not above the law, no matter your beliefs

Satan in a cassock casting black magic

Childhoods tragically ripped from their shaking feet

Conscious yet inadequate

The bullshit catalyst

Far flung inaction by the ministry of presbytery

Supreme ascendancy, tomfoolery

You're not above the law, no matter your beliefs

Supreme ascendancy, tomfoolery

Holy hands of God

Justice impedes

Supreme ascendancy

Permanent purgatory"

Music I Like; Sly Withers

Sometimes I just need something to give me that boost to start working on something. That's where Something comes in.

youtube

Opening with a choppy delayed riff before dropping right into a blistering chord progression. And despite the crunchy sounds, the lyrics sung anthemically by vocalist Sam Blitvich hit relatable points and feelings that make the track feel like a journal entry in someone's life.

Their whole album Overgrown is a treat to the ears that, to me, has the underlying feeling of "I'm not perfect, but I'm figuring stuff out and working on myself to be better."

If you're into hard crunchy guitar tone rock, do yourself a favour and have a listen.

nicks biography from the 2006 birthday party website

transcript ↓

Nicks history is well catalogued, his ever burgeoning success and notoriety fueled by a variety of achievements since the early, wild Birthday Party days.

After his family moved to Melbourne from the country town of Wangaratta in 1973, he met some of his future band mates (Mick, Phil, and Tracy) at Caulfield Grammar School and began performing singing duties with them at weekend rehearsals and occasional school dances.

By 1977 the band, now called The Boys Next Door, were slipping untidily into the new “movement” of Punk/New Wave and Nick met Anita Lane who would become his (un)steady girlfriend for the next 10 years. His writing at this time was still maturing but after the move to London in 1980 it went from strength to shrink and found its own unique mode of expression within the Birthday Party.

Nicks untamed stage manner and fierce vocal delivery were the conduit through which the band's crazed performances flowed. Since the groups demise Nick has developed unhindered as his work with The Bad Seeds, his novel “And The Ass Saw The Angel”l and his various involvements in film work (writing, acting and composing) amply demonstrate.

A biography of Nick called “Bad Seed” written by Englishman Ian Johnston was released in 1995.
