What It Takes To Move Forward // Empire! Empire! (I Was a Lonely Estate)

This album is beautifully presented from top to bottom. It’s the first thick album booklet that I have seen in a long time. A photo accompanies every song, and they all have a nice filmy feel. The album took two years to record, and “is a living and breathing document.” It’s no wonder [...]

Pushover 2010

Push Over is an annual festival that displays an array of amazing local talent every year, and this year was no exception. There are your few bigger bands to draw in the crowd of course, but the majority of bands on the bill are lower profile who always acquire a huge benefit from the audience [...]

Catalyst #001 – Kids With Cameras

We make art for a lot of reasons.  We make art to tell stories, to reach people, to make them understand.  In other words, we can make art to raise awareness and to create positive change.  That’s the kind of art I want to focus on in this column.  Not the mass-produced radio top 40, [...]

Aaron Gillespie@Lilydale Showgrounds

Getting to this show, and not getting lost and being stranded in the middle of nowhere, was our first concern. I always hear of people in America travelling 5hrs to get to shows, but here, travelling for over an hour is a big effort (unless you’re going interstate). So we got the train to the [...]

Way down in Australia...

Hey there guys. So this is my attempt at an Aussie version of Brits & Pieces. I thought rather than clog up the page with an entry every time I had news to report, I’d try and do a weekly report. I’m based in Melbourne, so naturally my reports will be more Melbourne orientated, but [...]

The Dream The Chase video clip!

Brisbane (Australia) band The Dream The Chase announced via twitter that they will be releasing their video clip for “Who Is Alone” this Thursday (4th March) at 5pm.

We reviewed their debut EP, Found Again, last October and loved it, so make sure you check out their video on Thursday. Found Again can be found on [...]

American Ghetto // Portugal. The Man

As this album was released to anyone and everyone at the exact same time via internet, this review is based on my immediate reaction and was posted two hours after I first heard any of the songs.

It only took a few songs to realize that this was an outstanding follow-up to last [...]

Human. Artist.

positivexposure was founded on one thing: positivity. We’ve devoted our magazine to the idea of positive influences, positive feedback, and positive thoughts. Now it’s our turn (and yours) to make a positive influence on the world. So that’s why we here at positivexposure have decided to begin helping out charities issue to issue – and [...]

Owl City / Lights show review, Oxford O2 Academy Feb 19th

Click to see more!

Owl City, the musical brain child of Adam Young is a tribute to the power of the internet. From uploading tracks recorded in his parent’s basement late at night when he was suffering from insomnia on his Myspace page in 2007, to scoring a #1 single on both the Billboard 100 [...]

They Can't Hurt You If You Don't Believe In Them // Post Harbor

Let me just tell you, the bio that came along with this album was just the album cover with the words “THEY CAN’T HURT YOU IF YOU DON’T BELIEVE IN THEM.” It’s so creepy looking, I can’t even begin to explain it. The first few tracks continue that feeling. The album is beautifully presented, and [...]
