Sparkadia is an Australian rock outfit and the brainchild of some guy whose name is Alexander Burnett. I’m not sure what else there is to know about them aside from they are somewhat popular in Australia. Speaking of Australia, I was watching BBC2’s Secrets of our Living Planet yesterday and found out that feral cats and dogs are ruining the ecosystem in Australia because there were no cats native to Australia and so they have become killing machines of native Australian animals down there. They HATE cats down there. I wonder if Australians get sick of pictures of kittens everywhere these days. Check out this clip
Waaaaay off course. Anyways, Sparkadia released a single last year called “Mary” off their sophomore record The Great Impression and it’s pretty good. The track reminds me of something Muse would have wrote in the early part of last decade – a bit overly dramatic with a definite rock touch that doesn’t derail into a parody of itself. It’s definite got an stadium rock anthem feel to it, if anything.
