Live Review: PREMIERE: High-Tails 'Bending Over Backwards'

13 February 2014 | 2:44 pm | Nick Luke

High-Tails are a garage-pop four-piece straight out of the hotbed of Sydney, listen to their latest single 'Bending Over Backwards' right here!

The city of Sydney is back once again upholding its rep as one of the top Aussie hotspots for homegrown talent boasting original vibrations. I am of course talking about the guitar-brandishing pop-sters known as HIGH-TAILS.

The quartet's latest single 'Bending Over Backwards' is a short, sweet and simple (just the way it should be) garage-pop piece of sonic goodness. Akin to the likes of SPOON, ORANGE JUICE and maybe even THE ARCTIC MONKEYS, the HIGH-TAILS boys have certainly got their flavor and sound on lockdown.

Smoothly rolling along a bopping pace, 'Bending Over Backwards' playfully intertwines overdriven guitar rhythms with ultra-cool vocal stylings, moving into roaring highs every now and then, pushing the tune into raw garage territories strung together tightly by slick drums.

The HIGH-TAILS boys are currently putting the finishing touches on their debut EP, which not only features 'Bending Over Backwards' but also their first cracking single entitled 'Maps'. As well as putting their time into their debut release, the boys are also planning their 2014 tour dates. See you lads soon.
