Violet Harlot’s latest single, ‘Footy Mad’, is a tribute to AFL tragics and the widespread phenomenon that happens to punters when two teams kick a cowhide leather ball around. The track sounds similar to Guns N’ Roses’ ‘Paradise City’. But, instead of soaring vocals split with Slash’s manic guitar solos, it’s elevator music cut with a loud pub rock noise. Intrigued? We are. Violet Harlot’s continual sonic contrast keeps us on our toes. The quintet is unconventional but talented. More, please.
