OH MY GODS
Okay, so today I was waiting for a tram and there was a REALLY pretty girl at the same stop as me and while it may have just been because I was wearing my Hellfire Club t-shirt, she SMILED at me. So naturally I smiled back, and then we freaking HELD EYE CONTACT right up until I couldn't see her anymore. And because I'm only in Melbourne for a holiday and we're literally leaving tomorrow, I'm probably never gonna see this girl again. So sad rn.

Do you hear that? The screams, the whispers, the stories of lives untold? They're coming from The Valley...
Do you feel that? The stares from behind the curtains, the red Earth under your feet, the dry heat, the fire from below? It's coming from The Valley...
Do you hear that? The wicked beats, Australian-Gothic sub-influences, killer modern instrumental, your next favourite band? They are The Valley.
Introducing,
The Valley of The Vultures. An ethereal grunge-rock band hailing from rural Victoria that has a story to tell. The band's founder and lead singer, Sami Le Launter (what a name!) has taken elusive elements from Australian-Gothic such as themes of; isolation, death and hauntings, rejection, fear, and entrapment - and put them in sparkly cowboy boots.
Placing a twist on what we know to be of the Gothic genre, VoTV has further expanded the band's sound by incorporating Australian surf-rock styles and prog rock into the mix, creating something that is truly unique to the contemporary Aus music scene. With 15 monthly listeners, this is a very new and promising band with small gig dates expected over the next 6 months, and possibly a new spooky single!
Standout single 'Fleshed Out Boogie" from their debut album, contains all the elements of a good Australian Rock song -that being, entertaining to listen to, but not too hard on the brain - making it a song perfect for your next afternoon cookout. The song's true hook is found within the contrast between the verses and the chorus. This is done by Le Vaunter's clever use of vocals, by transitioning from an almost monotone, more sensible storytelling technique within the verses, to a passionate series of 'howl-like' cries within the chorus, effectively reminding the listener of the subtle themes of gothic and horror within the song. All this is done whilst keeping the song aligned with the soft 'surf-esque' vibes that Australia hold near and dear to its music scene.
Surely to be enjoyed by lovers of: Lazy Ghost, Plastic Beach, The Howlers, The Growlers, and Truckfighters.

DeviantArt Description- A Winner Down Under
'February 28, 1988
Calder Park Thunderdome, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia
Pipe Fitter turned NASCAR Driver Neil Bonnett is about to make history, by becoming first man to win a NASCAR race outside the North American continent; He is a member of a fabled group friends known as 'The Alabama Gang' this group is comprised of fellow drivers Bobby Allison, Donnie Allison and Red Farmer, whose careers like his began on the Alabama Dirt and Short Track scene before reaching the ranks of NASCAR.
Calder Park Raceway was the vision of Australian Businessman Bob Jane, who seeks too bring superspeedway excitement to the Land Down Under; Jane promotes this new track and manages to convincing the American based NASCAR into holding their first ever overseas exhibition race, with the finest race car drivers of both the United States of America and the Commonwealth of Australia to participate.
Neil Bonnett driving the Rahmoc Enterprises No. 75 Valvoline sponsored Pontiac Grand Prix, accepts the challenge realizing the rare opportunity that lays ahead of him; Neil remains calm and cool the under pressures placed upon him by the new track and the unforgiving heat, he has won a number races before this including one at Richmond the before week; He dominates field leading several laps holding off friend and rival Bobby Allison, Bonnett handles the car with the ease of a relaxing Sunday drive thorough his native Hueytown; Neil's patience pays off as the checkered flag drops he scores his first and only win on foreign soil, thus making him a rare back to back winner on two separate continents.'
In Honor of the late Neil Bonnett's Birthday July 30, 1946; I decided to make a watercolor painting of his greatest racing victory's at the Goodyear NASCAR 500 on February 28, 1988 at the Calder Park Thunderdome in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.
Neil Bonnett made history after already having won the Richmond 400 the previous weekend, setting his sights on a win in the land down under; After a gruelingly hot 500 Kilometers or 310 Miles Bonnett pulled into victory lane becoming a Winner on two separate continents back to back.
