Hard Heavy

This week's PBS Feature Album is a Best Hits of The 5.6.7.8's by Tokyo's rockin' retro trio.

Best Hits of The 5.6.7.8's features 14 tracks hand selected by the group to represent some of their favourite recordings over the past 39 years together. 

The 5.6.7.8's are like a turbocharged time machine, blastin' back to the sweet sounds of yesteryear while pushing the envelope with innovative jams. Their authentic vibe and fearless genre mashups make them icons of the indie and retro scenes. 

This week's PBS Feature Album is NYAA WA by Naarm/Melbourne duo Charlie Needs Braces. 

NYAA WA means 'take care' in Charlie's mob’s GuriNgai language, and the songs on the album emphasise the importance of taking care of lands, waters, and wildlife, and the need to keep culture alive, tell stories, and preserve sacred sites from development. 

This week's PBS Feature Album is the debut self-titled album by female collective The Cloud Maker.

With this exciting release, the genre-defying group invite listeners on a sonic journey that taps into mystical traditions, transcending boundaries of folk, world and experimental music. Inspired by legendary figures and timeless myths from diverse cultures, The Cloud Maker's music channels a unique blend of enchanting melodies and powerful storytelling.
