Pretty Violet Stain have been doing the rounds in support spots of late, on the back of their single 'Talk'. This appears, as do the other regulars, with their set now as tight as you're likely to see it. With their stand-out singles and their variety of mellow and upbeat songs, PVS have it all set for the release of their debut album, which should be a corker.

The Zoo, Brisbane, March 11 2000 (supporting Magic Dirt & Shihad)

Earlier in the evening, Pretty Violet Stain warmed things up with a highly enjoyable set of guitar pop. While this is the kind of stuff you've all heard before (fuzzed-up guitars, bouncy rhythms, pretty melodies), the Stain have the happy knack of making these hackneyed elements sound like you're hearing them for the first time, thanks to some fine songwriting and the band's tight, energetic playing. All in all, there's quite a bit to get exited about here.
