Dream Baby Dream with Ultra Material - An Interview


Uma das grandes referências e influências para o TBTCI existir sempre foi a saudosa seção Zona Franca da Bizz, principalmente as valiosas e preciosas dicas do mestre Fernando Naporano, e é exatamente aí que o TBTCI busca sua existência.

Não é de hoje que estas páginas vem indicando a efervescente cena atual australiana, e é exatamente de lá, mais precisamente de Brisbane que vem o novíssimo Ultra Material. Logicamente que sua sonoridade vem infestada de referências ao MBV e as bandas originais da Scene, todavia existe uma aura que permeia o K7 de estreia dos caras com nítidas alusões a Bailter Space, Chills e outros ícones de uma certa cena oceânica.

O Ultra Material é daquelas bandas para se prestar atenção já desde os primeiros registros. Altamente recomendado.
