FBi 94.5FM PRESENTS KILL YOUR IDOLS

THE BEST NEW AUSTRALIAN INDIE, ROCK & ELECTRO from WOLFMOTHER, THE GRATES, CUT COPY, DAPPLED CITIES FLY, THE PRESETS, FAKER, BIT BY BATS, MIDNIGHT JUGGERNAUTS, EXPATRIATE, DECODER RING & SPOD and heaps more

After ten years of hit-and-run broadcasts, FBi 94.5FM took to the air permanently on 29th August 2003, playing 50% Australian music, with half of that coming from our home town of Sydney. It's two years later and since then we’ve put to air some amazing music that we shook our arse, sung out loud and got stupidly drunk to – and now we’ve rammed some of our favourites onto this neat little compact disc, titled KILL YOUR IDOLS.

All these artists came to us in different ways. Some via our monthly Music Open Day where we throw open the doors and talk to anyone who has a demo to slip our way. Many simply dropped through our letter box with a homespun sleeve on a CD-R. A bunch of the tracks on here are still demos and, if all goes according to plan, they’ll soon be getting the wider attention they deserve. Much like some of the other bands that have moved from bottom-of-the-bill to ass-kicking headliners in a damn short space of time.

On this compilation, we’ve fused together a diverse collection of rock, indie and electro, call it what you want – we just reckon they’re hot. This may be the first time you’ve heard some of these bands or they may be a regular fixture on your stereo. The point is, they’re our favourites we want to share them with you.

FBI would like to thank all the artists and labels represented on this CD who have generously donated their music. All monies raised from the sale of this CD go directly to FBi 94.5FM, Sydney's independent radio station, established to promote local and national music and culture.
